  2. Could you make this one schematic? I have that pedal but the nux build quality is not the best and being able to do it with better components would be a success. Thanks for everything.

  4. Hi thanks for your work! I'm new on this, I searched for a demo on Youtube and it sounds awesome, it will probably be my first build. ✌️

    1. I had to flip both the mosfet transistors, i used 2n7000. So that might need an adjustment. And I’m pretty sure that the switch 1 and switch 2 need to be the other way around. Down= boost and Up= no boost now, i think the original is up=boost. Anyways just minor things it’s a killer layout thx Anders (Alex)

  6. Fantastic layout! Sounds great! Biased at -4.5 was a little hot for me, but -5.75 is perfect and gives it a really nice range from drive to fuzz.

  7. can someone provide a guide on how to bias the transistors? something is off with my build, pots working and do a change except the gain pot which just cuts volume when turned clockwise, doesnt seem to reduce amount of gain,
    measuring 2n56457 drains and

    Q1 i cant get it over 4.25v
    Q2 @ 4.5v
    Q3 @ 4.5v
    Q4 @ 4.5v and trimpot seems to affect the gate of Q5
    Q5 @ 9 (?)
