/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Fellow pedal builder here. What do you think of Run off Groove's amp emulators like the professor tweed and shit? I was thinking of building a few

yeah dont do this. I build pedals and Ive dabbled in amps, you're not going to have the skills, patience or the desire to build a transistor guitar amp and even if you did manage to you'd be so disappointed with the sound of it you'd hate yourself. Look into building pedals, it doesnt take much skill, time or money to build one. You can build a fuzz face clone in 3 hours for under 20 bucks assuming you have a soldering iron

>>340675
honestly, I dont worry too much about calculations. Thing is, theres basically only 2 types of transistors, fets and bjts, and all transistors in those categories sound pretty similar. I dont have the skills to design a complex circuit either so I usually just do little mods and stuff to clones where I see fit.

As for you, start building clones. Learn how to read a scematic, watch a video on youtube how transistors work and then watch a video how volatge diveders work. Then build a fuzz face clone. that should be enough to get you started

suck my dick

>>340411
well generally I charge people to do wiring diagrams. Ive seen places charge 20+ dollars to do them... whatever though. He gets a free one cause I like him

>>340318
you're welcome. The best thanks would be 5 bucks sent to my PP if it works out for you ;)

>>340300
here you go

>>340300
fiiiiiine I'll do it. Send money to my paypal at my email if you like my work as a tip. If not, I guess your ass is getting free labor lol

Wait one sec I'll get one mocked up in paint

>>340284
look up how a transistor amp works. Basically all it is is a transistor forced into saturation (basically a transistor works like a literal gate, the more elecrons pushed into it makes the gate open or closed, and a gate can only open and close so much). everything after the saturation point is cut off. This creates fuzz

>>340259
make a sculpture of devi ever and have both inputs going up his ass. I'd buy that for a dollar

>>340256
not so much. I havent really started advertising. I just talk about what I do and I usually get a few guys from 4chan that want something special. I try to sell for as cheap as I can.

>>340239
>Accutronics
just looked that up. Yeah I can totally do a run off grove amp sim with a digital accutronics reverb unit

>>340239
no but I could probably figure something out. Do you want some custom work done?

>>340240
dude I know right? I learned so much from that chart its not even funny.

>>340213
id just get that belt fed nerf heavy machine gun they sell

>>340234
Well at least he asked the question, he knows now

>>340230
they take a 9v battery. The battery drives the 4 amplification circuits inside a big muff. Here's a schematic if you're interested in me building you one

>>340228
I can make you a wonderful big muff. A noise gate? You dont really want a handbuilt one, theres some pedals that are just better from a factory. Chorus? I can build you one but it'll be expensive because theres so much labor involved

>>340203
Yeah, I can. By a pi distortion do you mean a big muff?

Hey guys

Ask a pedal builder anything! I can do tone consolation too, amp questions, how pedals work, ect.

Heres a schematic for a customer I'm putting together. Its a fuzz face that runs into a dual fet based OD circuit. Only the fuzz face is done

Hey guys

So I'm geting into trading stocks on speculation and I was wondering if anyone has some protips. I saw that amd has nearly hit rock bottom as far as pricing, and I seriously doubt that they would go out of business so I wanted to gamble a few hundred dollars on them. Whats the best way to go about doing this and does anyone have any experience in trading on speculation? Thanks

In return, mustangs

>>315889
neat circuit actually. I'll look into it

>>315712
so what would the output voltage be on 2 12 volt trannies?

>>315760
I'm not planning on selling exact clones, but I was going to use their SHO circuit as a base of a lot of my designs because its a really nice circuit

>>315517
thats brilliant, I might have to try that

>>315485
try ebay. They'll sell for a about 3 times the cost of making it. Amps are tougher.

>>315500
more or less. I mean theres people like devi ever who make like 20 different fuzz circuits but honestly they all sound the same to me.

>>315499
Im going to be building a SHO clone in a few days. Send me an email (poisonwater@lavabit.com) and we can work out a deal. If theres any other pedals you want we can work something out

One last thing: does anyone know some simple but relitively unused effects? I was thinking about building this lineup of effects:

ZVex super hard on boost
ZVex super duper
EA tremolo or like
Some sort of compressor
That crazy marshall simulator
and that armstrong green ringer modulator
