I had already talked to the author of the circuit about running it off the Crates 12.9 supply and all of the caps I've been using are rated at 25V. The TL072 are rated at a supply voltage of plus or...

jim p, Just a thought..... It is because of the phase change of the mid range that it cannot overdrive the input of the tubes......Therefore will adding the unity gain inverter put the midrange back...

Ooooo.... Nice thought! I do believe that is the point of the original circuit. Any thoughts on how to put that into a switched application. Okay never mind.. I was over complicating the circuit. I...

Wow! You are the man jimp. The current amp versus voltage amp explains alot.



I totally understand though that is not what I am attempting. I currently use the BBE Sonic Stomp on my pedal...

I looked at the circuit and thought not only of what you suggested but also of what I wanted out of the project as a whole. Bear with me while I roll off my thoughts. I'm not much of a "mid" tone...

Thanks jimp! I like the sound of that!

Rant on friend! I agree. Had noticed the same thing. A lot of them do come with pcb mounted pots so that they are secured in that way. But I have already found one case where I would rather use...

Thanks commodore... checking it out now.

Not meaning to get off topic.. I'm also almost done with their double-flush tremolo pedal circuit. Have a new box coming in this week to put it in. Their boards are great and easy to build. Even...

Thanks commodore64, I did think of that but opted for the lazy way out. Built a whole new circuit which I will put at the input as a preamp. Seriously... check this out: ...

Mine already sounds good on the clean side. But to get the tonal range and specific overdrive I want I have to go a little deeper. Even with a tube change the opamp front end tends to be a little...

Hey cheapgtrs! Yea I love the amp itself less the obvious tonal insufficiencies and the inability to get decent overdrive without getting too loud. Everybody talks about putting a couple of pedals in...

DELAYED AGAIN!! Still gathering parts. I did find a new place to order parts. http://www.tayda.com . Resistors pack of 10 for $.12. Or 100 for $1.20. Next payday I'm filling my parts cabinet with...

Im getting parts in the mail as we speak. Soon I will begin my own experimenting on the Crate V5 in search of that illustrious tone and unobtainable headroom. Now by headroom I don't mean carrying...
