About The Pedal Creators
Everyone can build excellent boutique guitar pedals. Everything we do is to make that experience more accessible and user-friendlier. The Pedal Creators series are the best and easiest to build PCBs ever. Including most resistors and capacitors already soldered on board as SMD components, leaving the key values for you to experiment and craft your own tone. Now you can build a pedal you are proud of in less than an hour without any previous experience. What are you waiting for to become a Pedal Creator?
The Pedal creators – key features:
• Easy to build, no previous experience required. It’s like Lego for musicians.
• Fast assembly, finish a pedal in less than an hour. Play your favorite record and enjoy the ride along.
• 100% mistake-proof. Even my grandma can build one while she cooks.
• Build your own boutique pedal. Experiment with different values and make the pedal you always dreamed of.
• Easy to scale. Turn your passion into a money-making machine.
Project overview
The No-noise gate has been designed based on the classic MXR Noise Gate. Tame down all the unwanted noises of your signal chain, hum, hizz, and all those uncomfortable noises usually associated with the high gain drives.
Introduction
• Tight Fit, designed for a 1590B enclosure, yet small enough to fit in thesame enclosure after a high gain drive.
• Ready to be wired as True Bypass.
• Works based on a Dual Op Amp, 2 2n3904 transistors, and a JFET 2n5485.
Controls
• Threshold
