Flabulanche plus boost
11 Aug 2020
This is the Flabulanche PCB from Madbean Pedals, based on Jon Patton's circuit, with an added Paperclip Boost from Nucleon FX. The boost switches from an always on buffer to a clean boost. Sound wise, it's pretty cool. A nice distortion, even on low gain, and the boost can really make it stand out.
The enclosure is something I salvaged from an external hard drive enclosure.
Another salvaged item - the LEDs from an old bike light, with some red perspex hot glued over the top, to make the inside of the enclosure glow red when the effect is on. Rock and roll, etc.
For the labelling I've used the dremel to do some engraving - I'm happy with how this came out. Much neater than previous attempts. The trick was to use a tiny spherical cutting bit on the tool.
