LPD Osu Compressor
TSBM (the small box master) does it again. Just curious Law, what is the circuit? [OS for Orange Squeezer? but the u- is it for unique? unbelievable? unworldly?]

[OS for Orange Squeezer? but the u- is it for unique? unbelievable? unworldly?]Thanks Russ! The circuit a modified version of the Bearhug by Jon Patton. The name Osu is the Japanese word for press (following my Japanese named pedal theme). I had already used Shiboru (squeeze) for my variation on the Engineers Thumb and Tamochi (sustain) for my optical compressor design, so I had to be creative
Someone on madbean posted a link to some steel enclosures that look very useable for stompboxes. One of them is pretty similar to the RAT enclosure, well, browsing their stock I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Procraft-Steel-Project-Box-4-1-2-x-1-7-8-x-1-5-8-PB1-XX-BK-/261178632815?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ccf75aa6fLooks to be about right for a 1590a build, just thought someone might be interested here or take it as a challenge to build in a 2 piece 1590a size enclosure.
they cost nothing, and have plenty of character, which you can mostly cover with paint and wood.
Thanks Blox.Nope, all hand soldered SMT.
4 ICs in a 1590a box is the bench mark for crazy.
