Katzenkőnigin

Katzenkőnigin Catalinbread’s Katzenkőnig combines elements of a Tone Bender MkII fuzz with a Rat distortion to create something that sings like a fuzz but is tight like a distortion. It has a wide range of response that covers from a beautiful singing tone, to tight, harmonically-rich crunch, all the way to fuzz mayhem. It took… Read More

Screamo

Screamo Screamo self-oscillation distortion unit from circuit bender noise wizard Alvin Weber Read More

Reverse Avalanche Synth

Reverse Avalanche Synth This is a drone synth based on three Reverse Avalanche oscillators and half Ugly Face pedal that were buried in a box under other failed circuits. It uses S9018 transistors so it can run on 9v (which somehow limits its range) and has a raw, primitive sound. Paired with Escobedo’s galactic fuzz… Read More

Ugly Face

Ugly Face Ugly Face is a completely all-out fuzz unit for fat, noisy buzzsaw sounds that has become a DIY classic. Originally created by Tim Escobedo on his Circuit Snippets web page, it’s a relatively easy build with very few components and a really cool spacey/sci-fi sound. I used this layout (minus the Threshold pot) but… Read More

Lo-fi Terror Noise Synth

Lo-fi Terror Noise Synth This noise machine is a collage of ideas all put together in a rush: a 40106 polyphonic oscillator section with starve control that goes through a galactic fuzz and a dirrrty delay section. It is not the cleanest build around, but it is nasty, edgy and capable of otherworldly alien sounds. Read More

Comodoro Fuzz

Comodoro Fuzz This fuzz pedal was made at the Mutan Monkey Instruments Pedal Attack workshop out of a kit provided by Comodoro. Read More

ISD1820 Filteroid

ISD1820 Filteroid Mainly used as a sampler/looper, the ISD1820 chip is used here in feedthrough mode. This turns this circuit from Synthlurk into an audio processor that can be used as a filter, amplifier, fuzz, suboscillator, noise generator or distortion unit. Check this thread on LMNC Discourse group to learn more about it. Read More

Mid-Fi Electronics Clari (not)

Mid-Fi Electronics Clari (not) Based on the noisy PT2399A chip, this crazy pedal from Mid-Fi Electronics is a delay/fuzz/vibrato/modulation/unstable tape simulator/weird noise thingy that brings that cassette lo-fi vibes and strange modulated echoes. This version is modified to include a switch to turn off the fuzz, leaving you with a clean weird noise thing if you… Read More

Fuzz War II

Fuzz War II Based on the classic Big Muff circuit, but with the addition of germanium diodes for aggressive clipping and a more radical tone control, this is the second version of the infamous pedal from Death By Audio. While the first version has 7 transistors and it is much harder to assemble, this one… Read More

4ms Noise Swash

4ms Noise Swash A chaotic random noise maker, self-oscillating fuzz/distortion with power sag, clipping diodes, feedback and overall unpredictable whackiness. Not many components but lots of pots to solder, have a look at the veroboard layout here. Read More
