FUZZ PUZZLE (shoegazer with mods)

[bigrigg]

Hey there, first off I want to thank member irmcdermott.   I etched the board from his pcb layout.  Worked very well.  Thank you kind sir.
This is the FUZZ PUZZLE.  It's the Devi Ever Shoegazer made of Tornspeaker and Sodameiser left to right.  Additionally I added a few mods with 8 switches and 4 knobbies so I thought the name made sense.

Knobbies are volume and texture.
Swithces - Aenima, turns the TP into the Aenima pedal.  Much more gain and sustain.
VFM - turns the TP into the Vintage Fuzz Master.  Hardcore octave up pedal.
Chaos - well...ya kinda creates chaos.  Sort of the oscillate crazy stuff.
Noise - yup, odd fuzz sounds from real spitty to other crazy stuff.
TP / ND - turns the TP into a Never Drive, another flavour of octave pedal.
Stack - this is my effect stack switch allowing the TP to feed into the SM ...... or the SM to feed into the TP.  Changing how the left and right stack in order.
So all in all there are at least FIVE Devi effects plus a few tweaks and mods and then the whole world of stacking any of them in all their FUZZ PUZZLE glory.  This is one freak'n fun fuzz pedal.  Enjoy!

Wow. That looks great. I'm glad the board worked out for you. I love the sounds the Soda Meiser throw out there.

Whoa, that's awesome. You can never have enough switches! How did you implement the switching for the mods that involve turning transistors around?

makes me want to pull out my old truly beautiful disaster and soda meiser!

any chance of a wiring diagram?

[stecykmi]

wow nevermind, i checked the member tutorial board

Would you be willing to post more specific details/a guide to the mods you added?  Ian is supposed to be etching me a board for this soon and I'd love to incorporate a few of them.  KILLER work on this!

I've had quite a few people voice interest in boards, so once i figure out a fair price for everyone (Dane, it will probably be a couple bucks cheaper than what I told you), I'll be doing a small run of them.

I can dig that!!

I think he uses a 4pdt toggle, 2 poles per Transistor, 'cause the central pin doesn't flip...

I've made a wiring layout for the Transistor Flipping mod...
I don't know if it's the same used by Bigrigg

[irmcdermott]

I posted board info in the thread on the Members Projects section.

Thanks, this makes sense to me now.

This is inspiring! Don't think I'll be building anything like this anytime soon, but wow! That's awesome.

Holy fuzzsickles!!! That's one fuzzed out fuzz machine.
I've been wanting to do something like this for awhile and now its much easier thanks to Ian..Glad to see his docs getting used..
