Well, about a week and a half ago I finalized my pedal design and ordered all the parts. Everything has come so far except the boards- and they should be here tomorrow. So excited!

What my pedal is is basically a boost with variable soft and hard clipping. So it can get everything from clean gain to push a tube amp, to fizzy fuzzy buzzy fun. At least, that's what it should do. The pots are: gain, soft clipping, hard clipping, post-distortion tone, and post-distortion volume. If it's any good I'll start making them. The name? "El Tigre".

I'm thinking about an orange box with black tiger stripes...

Mostly done, but ran out of solder for the volume pot... :(... Will buy more today and finish it tonight. Then I'll get some pics up!

Finished, and it isn't quite... working. As in, no sound. I probed around with a multimeter and found that it could be the power input. It seems like some power is draining to ground... Not sure how though...
