here's a pic of the Neutron I've built:

I REALLY like that housing - perhaps others here have seen it before, but I haven't. What is it?

It's an alu-enclosure made to fit with euro-cards. It's quite nice for more complex effects and it's cheaper than a 1590DD (size: 165x114x31mm) it costs about 8â,¬ here in europe.
Were you able to get rid of the high pitch wine or did yours never have it to begin with? I've read many people have that problem and I also ran inot it.
Tomboy - you got any links for those enclosures at that price ?
I admit it, I'm sick of Hammonds :(

Slightly - but not that it would be a huge problem. I'll post a sound clip in a few days.

Shure but I'm located in germany and so is the supplier - I don't know how much the shipping will cost.
anyway...

Thanks :)
My German isnt too good but I can just about muddle through. Your project looks very professional in that enclosure so I have to order a couple :oops:
groovy.............look's very nice and sounds cool.
- peace,

Great looking pedal (and good sound). I love that enclosure!
As for the comments about whine, I just built a Neutron with the MAX1044 chip with pins 1 and 8 jumpered, was careful to isolate the power ground from signal ground,
and installed the recommended chokes and have no problems whatsoever with high pitched whine...so yes, it IS possible to build one with a single battery supply and not have whine.
Quoteso yes, it IS possible to build one with a single battery supply and not have whine.
Yep, it is. In fact, that's how the board got laid out that way... :D
Yeah, thanks for the great design R.G.. I'm probably biased, but IMO my clone sounds better than both the original MuTron III and the Q-Tron that I demo'd.
...if only you'd do a layout for the MuTron Octave Divider next my life would be complete!! :D

I don't think I could improve on Craig Anderton's Roctave Divider, available from PAIA. The Roctave is hands down the best octave divider I've ever heard. I highly suggest that you try one out.
Looks great Tomboy, nice work !

Marty. :D
