Request: McSpunckle Gnomeratron VTF

Esppse
Hey, this is one of the craziest fuzzes I've ever seen. I started a Vero and realized I'm not competent enough to do it cleanly and without mistakes. I got to the second J201 and saw things started to blur lol.

I located the schematic here.

Would someone with more experience than me like to tackle this?

Thanks

11 transistors, 6 pots, 7 switches and 5 trimmers:
this would be a massive layout.
Some versions use more pots instead of trimmers.
To do it "cleanly" would be very difficult.

What a great schematic.
Thanks for sharing.  This one could have lots of neat mods, like making that filter toggle a B50k .. maybe throwing a b100k to ground instead of S1 toggle etc...

Lots of pots usually means lots of wires, it would look like spaghetti and probably oscillate.
A good pcb layout with board-mounted 9mm pots would be better than veroboard in this case. Maybe Madbean or Aion FX might be interested?

Hmm, i'll have a look and see what Dino thinks.  It does say not for commercial use if the schematic.   We just busted out a board for the devi silver rose.

SMD, trimpots, daughterboard:

and earlier one on vero:

It may be worth it to break it down to  its stages; the boosts, Muff, octave, etc   with clipping options.  Here is an earlier, slightly different schem. from their Facebook that they labeled for clarity.

If you have an Electra, Green ringer, and Muff with clipping switches, test stacking them.
