DeadAstronaut's TremShifter

11-09-2014 Important! I need to update my vero with the final values (some caps in the filter section). I plan to do it in the next days

This is a fun effect to play, its an optical tremolo and optical auto filter with a lot of options designed by DeadAstronaut at diystompboes.com, go to the original thread to know more about it. Instead of traying to explain how it sounds, its better to hear it, I've recorded a crappy demo for you.

EHX Small Clone

I built my Small Clone using Mark's layout. This in theory could fit in a 1590b but I wouldn't try it again, I used closed jacks and mounted the board with component side down but I still had to force it a little when screwing the lid, and it did felt wrong to me. But it sounds great. I included a Mix pot to reduce the wet signal which helps when using it with a bass.

Catalinbread SFT

I built my SFT using sabro's layout, this is another amp like overdrive which is often compared to the ROG Ginger as it also tries to emulate the sought after ampeg-near-break sound. I like this better and is my favourite bass overdrive so far. It has a great dynamic response, I feel like I can control the clipping with my playing style, more so if I use a pick. I think it may be because of the mu-amp jfet gain stages. The SFT is also very versatile with a wide range of tones going from mild overdrive to a doomy distortion, and has a massive amount of lows in it.

DeadAstronaut's Chasm Reverb

This is really a great sounding reverb designed by DeadAstronaut at diystompboxes. Go to the original thread to learn more about it. This has a couple of features not usually found in a reverb as buffered bypass with tails and feedback oscillation switch. It also has a unique mix control where you have to adjust the volume control depending on the mix to match effect/bypass volume.

I drew my own veroboard layout and built it with a medium belton brick, but with the decay and oscillation controls you can achieve a lot of depth effect.

This is how it looks at my first atemp doing a silverburst painting.

This is my verified layout. In the revised version added the need to ground PIN 2 and PIN 4 of the brick and removed and unnecessary cut.
