Conspiracy to Commit Electronics Megathread

I saw an old post of mine being quoted above. I corrected myself a little later with this follow-up:
I fully agree with your original post that the Steddi Go is very closely identical to the SVTDI, and so did Nathan in this post :Steddi, Go! - simple tube D.I.
Just look at post #5 on that page and Nathan agrees it is like the SVTDI.
But I guess Nathan who designed and made the Steddi Di, you, me and many others are completely wrong and "74hz" who loves to crap on anything Sushi box or C2CE must be correct, at least in his delusional mind.

Thank you SamuelG for modifying Nathans C2CE artwork file of the Bathtub Reverb for me for my BTDR3 module build, I think it turned out fantastic.
Also a massive thanks to Nathan for making them and letting us all make changes to them if we want, it makes DIY look professional.

If you search in the Sushi Box FX Secret Society forum you should find lots of references on all 3.
 
I have never used a Noble but I have used a Nobelium for over a year with a Lightning Boy tranfo and have been extremely happy with it. I have been using Sushi Box's Neptunium lately but only because I keep the Nobelium on another board at home for recording. It has been the main sauce for most of my music for the last year.

I have not used one of the prebuilt ones but I could only imagine that their's will work better than the one I built and mine works great.

The Tungsten Preamp is now in the C2CE shop I have a Tayda Chrome Green enclosure ready for my next one, thanks Darev for that suggestion since I think it is going too look great.

I finished my second Tungsten and in this one I increased C4 & C5 to 47uF to get a better bass response, not tested yet but on paper the 4u7 seemed a bit too low to me. I used 47uF because they were right in front of me and the 22uF were in another room.
The circuit makes me think Fenderish, I am wondering if a bright cap on the gain pot and smaller C4 & C5 caps might get it in the Guitar preamp area, it might be a bit too dark for guitar as it is. Just my wild speculations right now and we won't know until someone tries it.
Instead of the 33nF 630V caps I found that normal 100nF 630V caps will fit as well in case someone wants to change the tone controls a bit.
