Re: Personal Stash
Yea, he probably makes decent money from those sales and its a cool as company. I'm surprised there aren't lame companies cloning these. Although its a YAFF (at least the core), he really did some interesting things to the circuit.Jero wrote:Good manLaoWiz wrote:Although, I can't make these for others out of respect for Mountainking, if you haven't tried one I would suggest doing so immediately. For a heavy fuzz, it kinda slays everything else. Very textual and rich sounding. All of the controls are useful and you can get a good range of sounds. I kinda don't need to build another fuzz...I had someone email me not too long ago asking if I'd build them one and I told them the same.

Whuzza YAFF? Some kinda Fuzz Face?
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

Re: Personal Stash
Yea, yet another fuzz face. But that's just the front end, what he added after that for the tone shaping and extra goodness makes it sound like a fuzz on steroids!jrmy wrote:Whuzza YAFF? Some kinda Fuzz Face?

Re: Personal Stash
Maestro Filter Sample and Hold finished this last week. The two I made for Kosta sound better most likely due to the fact that I have found the best noise transistor to give a good range of sweep for the Sample and Hold function. Used a burr brown op amp for the sample and hold side and it sounds pretty sweet. Maybe someday ill do a run of these but it's a tough build but getting easier each new time. The filter is pretty insane with the mods. Ill need to do another vid soon..

Re: Personal Stash
I love this thread! For some reason, though I keep thinking about this:

That's some neat wiring on that sample and hold considering how many wires are running around in there. Are those shrink-wrap tubes over the wires?

Yea, its a shitload of wires with the board I'm using. I have another board from madbean that allows for board mounted pots which will be easier. I need to do a run of these as they are just as weird and probably weirder than the Gristleizer. Can get some nice strangulated filter sounds pumping it into fuzz.
Yea, I just started using heat shrink for wires. Easier than zip ties and just looks cleaner.

I think I will do it. There's some critical parts to be figured out. It's a real particular circuit. But one of my favs right now, so a small run should be done...

I'd sure love to have an Out Sound Harmonic Percolator...

I wonder what that trimpot is for.
