Effect's files
Ready to build effects
Those are the effects that have been reverse engineered, built and verified. With this info, you should be able to make a working replica of your pedal of choice. Of course, you can still submit info about them (for example, an improved layout, or revised project file).
- Big Cheese files - Easy to intermediate project.
- Brown Source files - Easy to intermediate project. Very similar to the Big Cheese.
- Meatball files - Intermediate to advanced project. Medium-sized board, but requires extensive off-board wiring.
- Ring Stinger files - Very difficult project. Despite few external wiring is required, this is a large and complex build.
Partially done effects
Something lacks in those projects to say they're ready to be built. Still, with lots of patience and experience, a brave soul can build a pedal out of the info available.
- Wobulator files - Difficult project, only the schematic is available.
Effects under development
There's not even a schematic of those effects. Some have the files so as to reverse engineer them; others still hide in the darkest and deepest crack of the abyss.
Other stuff
We'll throw here what doesn't fit in any other category: files, articles, links... If you're into a build, be sure to make a visit!
