Forgive me Gentleman~~I`m gonna post something that not about effects`But anyway ,I have alreaday made a DIST effect myself--The Sans Amp GT2 ,and it sonds realy good.:) I spent nearly half a year to built it because it aways had noise ``but now the problem has been solved:)
I ..`` In fect ,I wanna make friend with you all !
Here is my ICQ ````253448790 :) I`m watting for u!
what was wrong with it?
Hi Lee. Welcome. You started with the GT-2? Wow, then you won't have difficulty to build effects!!! I don't have ICQ, but you can e-mail me any time.
All right!! :) My E-MAIL :liqunchao_002@hotmail.com
Let me tell you a secret,and don`t tell others haha ``I `m just a guy who only konw how to see the schm but don`t know how dos the circuit works at all:twisted:
The first one I made had too much nosie-----the schm I useed was one which download from ???site (thanks a lot). But now it was substantiated by one person that it has no problem.That means I made the problem
Then I decided to make the second one and make a PCB myself .I made the PCB had two part,one had all ICs on it , and also I/O jacks,DPDT switch,then use cables conect eachother .Here is the photo of it !

Although it could work,but still have error .I check the PCB N times,but found no error,I think it should be component`s problem.It must had a broken one
This is the third one! -----Hand-drawing

The photo is at the end of the page .Just pull down.
This time ,I use an analog switch(right?I don`t know too much words.I mean it was built with FETs and Transistors),and use a jumper so I can test the whole circuit.This was better than the two I `ve made.It just has a little problem-----The analog bypass switch part.When in jumper mod,it has a noise that nearly NONE .But in switch mod,it has a great deal of noise,even a Noise Gate could not reduce it. I was failed.N days passed....
I still have no idea to fix it .Since one day ,I saw the BOSS DS1 schm,I found that the ANALOG sw part should be use like this-----switch the low gain part .I used the ds-1 `s SW part,just like the way it is .It worked!
haha
Now I am making the fourth one based on the second .
I don`t know if you could visit this site or not.It is an simple chinese one
Those was two effect I have made```Don`t laugh me``:)

I can't see the first two, but I liked the third a lot. What kind of ICs did you used?
EDIT: this was for the first post. I didn't found the photos for the Zombie and Guv'nor.

I could E-mail you the pic if you wish```:)
Cool. I'm sending a e-mail for you.
I sent 5 pictures to you``:) Thank you a lot ~~I `ll try my best when you need help `:p
You started with the SansAmp? :shock: Congratulations is all I can say!
From now on, we should suggest the SansAmp to any beginners just wanting to get started :twisted:
I did the same (started with the SA), worked the 2nd time 8)
