DHA Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Hi all, Thinking of making a new pedal out of the existing DI-EQ design. It will be a 3 band active EQ with Mid band Q and a boost via a footswitch. So a clean op-amp boost with EQ, really my DHA-DI-EQ without the DI. Is there a need for this? box will be 120x95x55 with the knobs. 9V battery and 2.1mm center negative power supply operated. 1/4" jack in and out (in jack turns in on) - blue led. True by-pass footswitch. Will be offering the first 5 ordered by BC members for £49 + £4.25P&P - Target price will be £59. Comments welcome please.

gnasher1993 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Yes, definitely a need. I'll get one if I can sell one of my pedals in time to beat the rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahpook Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 sounds interesting...will the eq and boost be controlled by the same footswitch ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It possible to get a very high output so will go into heavy overdrive if needed or even drive a power amp as a pre-amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
