More Effects Books	AMZ is a resource with information about guitar effects pedals, stompboxes, audio circuits and tips on how to build them. There are fuzzbox schematics, signal booster projects, audio mixers and much more available free. Take some time to browse the site and discover information that can help you with your next DIY effects pedal project. You might decide to build your own clone of a classic! Browse the free pedal building info in the Projects section, the Lab Notebook, the Guitar FX blog or many of the links in the left column. Enjoy! AMZ Guitar FX blog updated! There are several new articles in the stompbox blog, including tips on LED connections, mods for the 5-knob compressor, buffered output for TS-808 clones, DS-1 fat mod and much more. Bookmark and check it often! RECENT PROJECTS The Buffer pcb has been designed to be only a buffer board, and it can be constructed using a jfet transistor or a dual opamp as the active device. What makes the board special is that the input has been designed to duplicate the input circuitry of the typical tube amp, and it thereby preserves the interaction between the guitar's pickups and the buffer circuit. Read more about this project. NEW! FREE schematic of the 3 stage Muff-style distortion. This version uses PNP transistors and less gain which puts the pedal in a milder overdrive category. Read more about this project, and then download the schematic and parts list. The AMZ true-bypass relay controller is back in stock. Use a soft-touch momentary switch to control your pedal's bypass. Next, build your own kill switch for some glitchy stomp action. Also, the Power Supply pcb is in stock - make your own pedalboard power supply at a fraction of the cost of a commercial unit. The Multi-Fuzz and Tweed Stack pc boards are finished and the instructions are being written. Coming soon! The R-C filter cutoff and LED resistor calculators have both been updated to make them more versatile. Find these online calculators and more in the AMZ Lab Notebook. Check out the etched and drilled, ready-to-solder pc boards available for AMZ guitar effects projects, including a guitar direct box, opamp booster, boost/buffer and others. The boards have a green solder mask and a white silkscreen parts placement. Schematics and detailed instructions are included with every order. AMZ Project PC Boards Some of the projects for which pc boards are offered include the AMZ Mosfet Booster, Mini-Booster, Multi-Purpose transistor board, Opamp Muti-Purpose, Voltage Doubler and Germanium Buffer. Complete schematics and detailed instructions are included with every order. Some of the projects that can be made with the pc boards: Jfet mu-follower boost Mosfet booster pedal Guitar Direct Box Dual Output Booster Boost and Buffer Dual Buffer Re-amplifying Interface Silicon Transistor Booster AMZ Muffer AMZ Muffmaster A Dirty Boost AC128 Germanium Transistor Booster PNP Rangemaster-type Treble Booster Germanium Transistor Buffer Jfet Transistor Booster Jfet Transistor Buffer/Line Driver Mosfet Transistor Booster (not the AMZ Mosfet Booster) Mosfet Buffer Power Supply Filter 9v-to-18v charge pump True Bypass Relay System and more! GERMANIUM TRANSISTORS: I have plenty of the 2N1309 and 2N404 germanium transistors, fully tested and guaranteed. They work great in fuzz or booster circuits. Order a pair before they are gone.   Web www.muzique.com Quick Links to AMZ Content •   Technology of the Mini-Booster •   The Case Against True Bypass? •   Is it Legal to Clone? •   How to wire a DPDT Switch •   Fretboard Care •   My Homebuilt AX84 Amp •   Free Soundcard Oscilloscopes! •   How to Solder •   Dr. Quack, Mosfet Boost, Mini-Booster and more! •   Capacitor FAQ •   Info About Copyrights •   AMZ Sitemap Update - Read about the history of the AMZ Mini-Booster circuit, its origins, and pre-Internet status.
