Hi everyone, I am a musician and I'm in a band called Los Electrosónicos Disonantes; I'm tired of giving my money to music houses for pedals efects. I'm about to build a compressor and an octaver to use. I got the lay out from tonepad, what do you think about this kind of DIY things? do ya think this things really work? anyone of ya have built a diy pedal? any suggestion?

I and my friends built a pedal for my TPE this year (this is a discipline we have at school in France in "première", you have to do a research on the theme you choose; mine was: "how to transform analogically the sound of a musical instrument?"). It was not truly DIY as we used a model we found on Internet, it was a fuzz pedal, but for 20€ we did something that worked properly and is now used by one of my friends.

I built a shitty distortion pedal from some circuit schematics I found online once. It didn't work for very long, but it sounded cool and noisey, and it was fun to do. Most of the components were dirt cheap. I'd say go for it.
