Build Report- OBSIDEAN

[audioguy]

Not much to report- Gringos layouts freaking rock, Joe D. is a mad genious with distortion design,  and this pedal sounds like doom in a box... I love it!

Which version is that? It's not the one that uses 2N7000s, is it? I built Rev 3 (which used 2N7000s), but it had a bit of a problem with hiss, which is too bad because I thought it sounded killer!

I used 2n5089's IM not sure which version... its Gringos old layout. He sent me an updated after I had a bunch of the boad populated- but the new layout helpd a ton with the part values!

Thanks Gringo & Joe D.

how often do you adjust the gain controls ?

is this the kinda circuit i can make with gain fixed - no pot ?

[Marcos - Munky]

The Obsidian have high gain, and if you put the gain at max you will get some noise. Use a amount of gain near max, but without the noise.

The version with the 2N5089s is Joe's latest version of that circuit.

joe will always keep you hoppng. all he does is cool stuff. but for  some  reason he is too busy for me, high gain is the shit.
