    1. Hmmm, I don't know, the schematic didn't specified which version it is. Possibly V1?

  4. Just finished this and it sounds ace!! Very high output though, sheesh!!!! Does anybody know the differences in the V2? I know the volume pot is more conservative but I don't know the value, or even if it's just this that makes the difference. hmmm.

    1. Great! The most simple sollution for more control of the huge amount of output could be to use 50k log pot for the vcolume control?

  5. Anybody have any ideas on how to mod the dude for less or switchable compression levels?

  6. D7 i D6 should be reversed (according to the schematic):) It has huge ipact for the sustain :)

  7. How did everyone else get their build to work when the VREF circuit doesn't line up? I felt like I was taking crazy pills, trying to debug mine, until I noticed (1) the jumper from H12-L12 ought to run from H12-N12, and (2) the jumper from M16-S16 ought to run from N16-S16. (For the jumper between pins 6-7 of IC2,I just bridged them on the copper side of the vero.) Now it works just fine.
