I’m hoping this info will make it into the build doc for the PreAmp Boost.

On the Ascension Boost, can I use a Mod board and switch between “Tight” and “All Frequencies” by jumpering C3, like on the Stage 3 Booster? So 10n and 220n?

It’s just fun to fiddle with this stuff.

MoRC release

I think you’d wire the pot directly in place of the switch, using all 3 pads, with the left-most pad being lug “1”. If I’m in error, someone please let me know.

You don’t HAVE to use the wiring board. I think it’s neat because you can mount the caps on the bottom of the board and leave room on top for power/jack connectors. You could use an On-On-On switch by itself and wire it for 22n/100n/220, or just an On-On for 22n and one of the others for bass.

The layout example is just that.…Read more

There’s a nice writeup for targeting bass in the MoRC build documentation. In addition to the filtering you’re talking about (C12 in the case of the NT compressor), it was also suggested to increase the release time:

“Bass players would normally look for a faster release time than a…Read more

As long as both are inverted phase, does it make a difference which comes first?

It’s not noted as inverted.

I’m also seeing that none of the NT boost singles are inverted, even the Naga, which is based-on the Rangemaster (yet the PURP, also based-on the Rangemaster, is inverted).

The instructions say to use a “C” pot. I’m guessing you used an “A” pot and wired it backwards (?). If you actually used a C pot and wired it backward, that would cause your PRES pot to be maxed in what would normally be a minimal position. Am I looking at that right?

Reversing the A pot would work, but the logarithmic taper…Read more

Afterblaster v2 Add an extra gain stage to any circuit.

That should be easy enough. You can set the AfterBlaster to a fixed boost/gain via a trim pot, or you can add a regular pot to vary the boost (provided you have room for the pot on your pedal).

I don’t know the db value the AfterBlaster…Read more
