From the vendor
Oh man... How am I going to explain this... On the old Death By Audio website there was a page with pictures and explanations of a few old one-off pedals they build One of these pedals was the Assault System A dual fuzz/distortion with a transistor and a opamp based side with interesting tone (filter) controls Looking through forums on the internet on the search for weirdass circuits I found schematic for this exact pedal wich were apparently based on some dubious photos of Oliver Ackerman's notebook So I made PCBs for both sides of this pedal But when I was writing the documentation for them I found out that almost all traces of the existence of this pedal dissapeared from the internet... The new DBA website has a link to a "Legacy Website" but that currently leads nowhere* I can't even find the forums anymore Please believe me that I did not make this shit up! This is the PCB to build a clone of the opamp side You can find the transistor side here (I kinda copy/pasted the description from there since I am lazy) Keep this weird circuit alive!
Build Docs
*Edit: it finally works again Here is the link There is a picture of the assault system Looks like the original even had an order switch I TOLD YOU IT WAS REAL!
Schematic
The schematic is in the vendor's build document, page 3. Open the build document. No KiCad fragment has been drawn for this circuit yet.
