Dirty Little Circuit v.3.1, ready for its encosure. 3x protos and then we'll see where we go from there:

I am leaving the #guitareffects feed because of the trash advertisers that keep hashing new account names to sell products I could find if I wanted them.

Can't tell if @bsky.app has effective moderation for this trash, or it's a feature, not a bug.

Latest revision prototype PCB has arrived.
Need to get grades in before doing a test build, and additioal parts are en route anyway.

The #dirtyLittleCircuit has evolved quite a bit from the earlier demo (linked). 2nd round of prototype PCB's ordered.

Dr. Pufflesteen was tired of fuzz and asked: "What would happen if you treated the BC108 family with respect instead of violence?"

🤔

Breadboard finalized, PCB designed and protos ordered, parts ordered, drilled enclosures ordered, knob samples sourced...

Research question: What does this sound like to you, in the vocabulary of amps, pedals, and their sound adjectives? (the sound of the gear, not the playing!). It's a bridge humbucker, two-channel recording of the cab and direct-out of the amp.

Because it came up in conversation, here's a pic of the very first DFO-250 prototype, 100% by hand on perfboard before I learned PCB layout, hand-drilled, lettered, etc..:

Seems like an appropriate day to build another 2025 Dumpster-Fire Overdrive.
Again.
Looks like I'm gonna be busy. :-/
