- the One Dollar DIY Amazon Fuzz + how to enclose it with true bypass switch
video is the first video I made on LM386 fuzz pedals and now we're building it again but parallel! hope you enjoy the video and that it helps you make your own fun pedal 💖
• One Dollar DIY Amazon ...
Hey, I watched most of your videos and what would really ameliorate the experience is having a few seconds of preview of the result sound a the beginning of the video so we know why it’s built this way. Thanks a lot, I learned so much with your videos.
I'll try to keep that in mind, thank you😊👍
Yeah. No one is going to build something they can't hear, and anything LM386 sounds like ass anyway. It's not anything I would choose for any type of sound quality or a decent distortion tone.
I like that you show how you are building the pedal and explaining the what and how to do it, in detail. That’s the best part. You share your knowledge. Thank you for your insight. Show me more!!
Haha when I saw your username I got worried but thank you 😊 I have over 500 videos already and more to come so there will be more soon 😃👍
Lights and the camera rig are huge improvement. Good work. It didn't obscure the view but on the white board you could see the LED reflected. Maybe put the light at a slight angle to get rid of that. Keep up the experiments with these. I'm planning on making the 2$ distortion pedal with this circuit and a BazzFuss in a pedal.
the light are at an angel but yeah I saw it too when I was editing the video I think I have to make some sort of mate box for them or something but at least it seems to be an improvement so that's great! thank you for telling me 😃👍
@@zurowetz yeah it was just something I noticed. Didn't affect anything on this video
The LM386 boards are 23cents each (19p here in the UK) from Aliexpress. I've ordered plenty, to try your ideas!
awesome! maybe you'll come up with something I'd like to copy hehe 😈
Never mix positive and negative on this board or chip is burnt right away with 9 v
The view from the rig is good !!
awesome thank you for letting me know 😃
I personally like the new setup. Just stumbling upon your channel and watched 4-5 videos so far. Definitely standing out picture clarity wise.
Cool. Thanks for sharing.
I like the tone wow it's a nice project
Thank you yeah I like it too when I come back I'll start working on it so there will be more videos on it soon 👍😀👍
you're doing a great job man. Everybody needs to start somewhere somehow. So far, you've done great things, more to come!
Thank you 😃you are right everyone has to start somewhere 😊but I have also done some really bad stuff too along the way like I destroyed a 1927 acoustic guitar by accident 😖 that was not a fun day 😅 but I learned not to use balloons as a clamp to glue bracing😆
Really enjoy your videos man.
aw thank you 😊always nice to hear!
The new setup is really good
Thank you 😊glad you like it 😃👍
I find with this circuit it acts like a fuzz. Turn up the volume, rip the knob off. Use the knob on your guitar to clean things up.
Sounds nice! I bought a bag of those boards after your previous video and have been using them for some other sound experiments, but I also have some ideas for setting up a distortion pedal. I like the ability to blend the two 'flavors' of distortion with this rig. Also, your camera setup worked well, and looked professional.
You could have one with clipping and one whiteout that could be cool thank you for telling me I'm working on making everything better 🙂👍
Love your videos man! Keep up the good work 🤌
thank you and I will!🤗💪
Thanks for the video.
I am really enjoying these videos as inspiration as I am getting back into building amplifiers. A voltage divider made out of a few resistors at the output of the bat diode circuit could be used to match the volume levels. Could also use a trimmer potentiometer to do the same thing but adjustable.
Awesome 😃👍I'll look into it 😁 so glad it's inspiring it's all I wanna do🙂
new setup looks better 👌
New setup looks sweeter than a stack of $100 bills on a cherry cheesecake. It looks so sweet it's giving me cavities. Great upgrade and great videos bud!
I don't know cherry cheesecake sounds pretty good to me 😋 but maybe I'm just hungry 😆thank you so much friend always nice to hear 👍😃👍
This was genius. Also you need to send me a link to those lights lol.
haha thank you ☺ the lights are called Nikabe L3 bout them in a local store
Im not messing but with this circuit it and the AliExpress pt399 circuit you get a thermin. Movement of hand near circuit changes pitch,You have to mess a little with making a bridge somewhere I cant remember. Fun
The pedal is like Egor Letov's, group Grazhdanskaya Oborona.
Put them in series with a switch to reverse the order. You'll enjoy it.
I thought that was the idea at first. Cascading them. It would make more “sense”.
Fill light is good (soft shadows) but you need a stronger key light. Overall the shot looks nice.
Could you implement a dry/wet pot? Or a Bat/Red pot?
I guess wiring bat and red wires (or dry and wet ones) to left and right legs of the pot and actual output on the middle one might work?
Yeah you got it like a double tone pot the dry wet pot will be more complicated and I don't wanna give away any up coming videos 😉🤫
I NEED to know: do the clipping diodes light up when affected????
In this pedal no but if you connect them to ground insted of out they will (which I'll do in another video)
Do you have a playlist with all the LM386 videos? If not it would be something cool to create and put them all together in one place.
I don't but hey that's a smart idea I'll make one 😃👍
Thanks!
@@boyindablue7343 I have a video called 5 lm386 pedals where I talk about all of them and all are linked too so you could look at that for now and maybe it helps 🙂
@@zurowetz I definitely will!
@@boyindablue7343 I have made a playlist now :D
Hi this is a comment: good job!
Hi this is a response: thank you!
With the level difference between the BAT and the LED, what about a 3 chip pedal using a single chip with BAT41s in parallel with a pair of chips in series with LEDs?
I have a newer video check that one out😊
@@zurowetz thanks for replying so I found it! Interesting results!
@@dancamplinmusic just glad you did 😁 yeah I think so too im gonna keep experimenting with it so there will be more videos 👍😃👍
Have you made a blues pedal
Well anything can be used for anything but I feel like maybe the pedal I built in my last video could be used for blues but I don't play blues but take a look 😊
do we also do the polarity of the led like the diodes... + to -.....?
Yes!🙂
@@zurowetz thank you very much
ya should try some RGB self changing LED's. 😂
I's hardly worth wasting the time, money, and sweat when you consider what's available to be pieced together.........LM3110 amp boards, Lekato (and others) headphone modellers,........you can build a cheap stereo practice amp for about $50. Now if you want the experience of building, you can have it but will end up with less, and much worse sounding 'less'.
Honesty is the best quality! Great job!
Its also a heavy burden sometimes when what you want and need is not the same as what is right. Thank you, honesty is something I value very highly 🤗
Great video!
One question, maybe I missed this: why are you using 10k pots? Didn't you use 1k pots in the first video?
Yeah so that was a mistake I did when I measured the trimpot it said 1k but all LM boards are suppose to have a 10k trimpot on them and I have checked all after that video and they all have 10k it was only that one that was weird and so I use 10k now and if you're building it you should use 10k too🙂
Thanks alot!@@zurowetz
@@stbloch good luck with your build 😃👍
