Can we just do it on something like vero board? It seems like there's not too many parts and then we don't have to worry about getting custom PCB's done...
And the beauty of the folk projects is we get to run the show -- looking forward to some collaborative design here

if we get the layout perfect, I think I could find a source for making the PCB for us if we wanted.

That sounds good... I wonder if Fromel would be into helping this time, if that doesn't pan out?

Sounds interesting! A total newbie here but looking forward to trying this out

I'd be on board if it took off in kit form (especially with Donner boxes
). I'm a bit too green with this stuff to sort decent parts myself.

I would like to put a buffer in my SBEQ, so it would be cool if this could fit in the battery compartment.

Yeah having a kit with the donner boxes would be awesome

I'm going to start building this one today. I'll try to Vero it out. I Just finished building a AMZ mini boost but still need to connect it to the pots and switch (boutique boost; with tone control). FUN!! Maybe Stereo outs?

So, how's it coming? Did you have a chance to mess with it yet? Looking forward to your thoughts...

I didn't, i need to get some parts today. There is a couple parts a don't have (10meg for example).
I do have some questions for anyone who is better at this stuff than I.
there is 2 points for B+ and a DC input 6-20v. Never seen this before. Are these points connected to the
power supply (9v) and are they + or - power in? Also the pot..50KC antilog Not sure about this part.
Source..is it just a reverse log 50k? Thanks!!
One more thing, the 47uf in series at the input, is it a polarized cap. Its hard to see on the schematic..
+ side on input?
