Little Read Rooster Tremolo
This is a tremolo that I have
designed from the EH tremolo and some other
LFO:s. The LED is a two
collor common catode
so
when the effect is
bypassed it flashes red
in LFO tempo and
when
its on the
LED
flashes
green. Its a
dead
simple
circut but
it workes for
standard setups and swamp
sound together
with an
overdrive.

Pink Noise
Pink Nois or 1/ƒ as some would call it is a Fuller mod
Fuzz Face,
schematics
from R.G.
The
Technology
of the
Fuzz Face.
I
don’t like
the sound
of a Fuzz.
Why build
it then? A
friend of
mine
gave
me
tree
NOS
Valvo
AC128
and
as a
stomp
box
builder it
would
equal with
treason
not to use
them. He
worked as
a
developer
at
Ericsson
and found
them in
the scrap
bin, along
with other
vintage
stuff,
when his
department
was
moving. He
asked
people
that
had
worked
there
since the
60: s and
they sad
that they
probably
were
from
back
then.
Two
were
90
and 93
hFe
and
low
leakage.
Since
it’s
a PNP
and
positive
ground I
had to
incorporate
batteries
in the
enclosure
so the
little
black
package
you see is
3x3V
lithium
cells
75
mAh
each.
It
actually
produces
12.6V
together,
don’t ask
me why,
Its
a
little
too
much
for
this
but
whatever.
As I won’t
use this
much
and a
fuzz
is
cheap
on
battery
it
will
last
forever.

Percussion
This is quite an odd type of effect.
It’s a
square
wave
form
tremolo
that
sounds
really
weird when
the speed
is at min
ant
depth
at
max.
Its
like a
morse
signal or
a kind of
delay.
Percussion sounds like effect of the
old
Valco-designed
amps of
the 1960s.
It ranges
from
subtle
tremolos
to
a
full-on
machine
gun
staccato
choppy
sound.

Purple Haze
Can a Si Fuzz Face sound
as good as
a Ge one?
IMO yes.
The Porple
Haze is a
Fuzz Face
kind of
circuit
with two
2N2222A Si
transistors.
Its very
nice
sounding.
Follow the

About the recording
Everything
is
recorded
twice
exept the
first
clean
part. Always
first is
the Pink
Ge then
(almost)
the same
thing with
the Purple
Si. The
gain
setting is
the same
for both.
First MIN
then 12
then
MAX.
The
Vol is
on
3 for
Ge
and 12
for
Si.
If
I
say so
my
self I
can
distinguish
a slit
difference
at MIN
where the
Si is a
tiny winy
bit hasher
then the
Ge then
its hard
to tell
them
apart.

Q-Wha When I think about Envelope Filters I think about funk. And when I think about funk the first thing that comes to my mind is Bootsy Collins and his Bootsy's Rubber Band and Parliament-Funkadelic together with George Clinton . This man is something extra. Both his music and his appearance leave no one untouched. This man IS groove impersonated. So I thought that pink would be an appropriate color for the Q-Wha Envelope filter. It’s based on the ROG Nurse Quacky

Little Squeeser
This is
the DOD 280 Compressor from Tone pad. The
original
PCB was
so
small I
did not
have to
re
make
one to get
it to
fit in a 1590A
box.
I added
a 10K
trim
put insted of
the
4.7R to the LED
and
made my wwn
LDR/LED in a
shrink
tube.
It
workes
fine.

Viper - Z
This is one
is based on the Thor by
runoffgroove.com.
I hard wired the
Bright
switch allways
on. In
min gain
this is
a grate
treble
booster. I
tryed to bake
the
clear
coat in the
owen
to
shorten
the time. Id
made
the
clear
coat a
bit
yellow
and shrinked
the
lable.
This is
also
the
first one
I have
mounted
the stomp
switch, the
LED,
and
the bass
switch directly
on to
the
PCB. To
get rid
of
a
lot of
hook
up
wires saves a
lot of valuable space
inside this small type
of
enclosures.

Small Talk
This is the same
circut as tha Dragon Cave Overdrive or The
Fulltone OCD. The only
differens is that the
Tone pot is removed and
the HP/LP switch is
hard wired to HP. I
think that the to lose the
tone pot is no big
deal
since you have a tone
pot on youre guitar and
that one is easy
to
reache
when you
play
if
needed.

The Mini
Man
This is the Mini Man. A clean
overdrive with distortion
if
needed.
I
am
proud to
present my
first
own
design, The
Mini
Man.
Well it
is not
entirely
true. I
have
borrowed
and
stolen ides
but
hey,
that is
what
everyone
else
does.
Never the
less I
am so proud
to
present it
anyway.
This
is
a
versatile
overdrive
with a
MOSFET
and
standard
clipping
section.
The
clipping
section can
be
turned
off and
then you
have a
clean boost. As
small
as
it
is it produces a fat and riche sound
with lots
of overtones.
And it fits in your
smoking
pocket. Never
leave home without
it. Do you
want
to
know
how
it
was
made.
Se
for your
self
