What makes it so special? Well the fact that it fits in a 1590B and has a very usable gate built on. The “not so useful” boost has been removed and the gate has been added. J0K3RX has done an awesome job on this layout and it has been verified by him. If you would like to grab a copy of the etch mask head over to Madbean Forums.
This is a SID2SID clone with a couple mods. I am going to verify this layout and then I will post the etch layout for anyone that wants to build it.
What is it? Its a way to add a second SID chip to your Commodore 64. Why would you want to do that you say? You can get true stereo out of a C64 if the software you are using supports it. I am blowing the dust off my Commodore 64 and Prophet64 cartridge.
Just got done putting together my Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar. I have had this guitar for a month now and it spent the last 3 weeks in pieces. Its hard to tell from the picture but it is a Surf Green color
Here is the breakdown of what I did to it. Some of this was bought new and some of it I had on hand.
This is my old Commodore 64 with a few mods and the Prophet64 cart. I modded this C64 about 4 years ago and hit a brick wall with it. Not sure what it was now but it maybe time to get it up and running again. I think my favorite part of the Prophet64 was the drum synth and sequencer. Looks like I also have the SID2SID adapter for duel SID chips and a C64 MIDI adapter.
May play with this in a few months and see if I can get it up and working again.
I took Jon Patton’s (MidwayFair) layout of Josh’s (1776Effects) design of the Rub-a-Dub and etched a board. My goal is to do a 2 in one pedal with this. I am going to do a low gain overdrive with it. This is the first time I have used a “short” Belton brick and I really dig the springyness of the reverb and there is not much modulation at all. Really happy with it so far.
When the function-fx fund raiser started I was broke as a joke but Brian included a etch-able layout of the GreaseGun so I decided to build it while I wait for some funds to donate. This is a great all around pedal and gets nice overdrive sounds to fuzz sounds with no issues. Seems pretty bulletproof. Just as I boxed this one up my pack from function-fx came in the mail. haha
I stuck with my simple labeling for this one and I fell in love with the color.
The Swamprat – Wampler Plexi-Drive
Madbean just threw together another unverified layout and I figured I would give it a go. Here is here I am at.
Time to populate it.
Done and it sounds great. Really happy how this came out. The enclosure etch was really fun to do. I think I am going to do a few more of them.
I started etching enclosures some again and I feel like I am finally getting a handle on this. I will make a tutorial this week on how I am accomplishing it. Here is one I did last night.
Time to populate it with the Madbean Swamprat layout.
I am working on a project to have a “all-in-one” vocal effects unit. This unit will be used to achieve a 60’s /Lofi sound I have been after. Here are the parts I am looking at.
Enclosure: 1590BB or 4S6500/1790NS if I have to
In/Out Jacks:Neutrik XLR Connectors 3P XLR/1/4″ MONO (568-NCJ5FI-S)
Circuits:
My father wanted a punch In pedal for his Presonus DAW controller. With a little research and testing, we found it needed just a momentary normally open switch to a 1/4″ cable. This is a basic design that my father and I came up with.
I did the enclosure in an etching of the fist and painted the enclosure in a satin black with a satin clear.
