Modifications
Diodes and Op amp
You can use other diodes than the mentioned combinations
. Try LED’s, MA858/859 (very nice!!)
,
D9E, etc.
D1-D4
best fit the bigger glass germanium diodes.
D5-D8
best fit the smaller silicon diodes.
IC1
can be any dual op amp of your liking. Try the JRC4558, JRC4559, AD712, MC1458, TL072,
OPA2134, OP275, etc, etc.
Clipping Diode Configurations
There are really a lot of ways to configure the diodes in the soft clipping section of this effect. There
are 2 diode sections that you can load with whatever 4 diode combination you like. The Dip switch is
added so that you can switch between symmetrical and asymmetrical clipping. Dipswitch 1 bypasses
D8
and dipswitch 2 bypasses
D1
.
Feel free to experiment with different diodes and configurations.
SW1
is a DP3T (on-off-on) switch
that enables you to switch between the 2 sections and in the middle position is takes out any diode
section to let you hear the op amp clipping only.
