I ordered a couple of
Kurt Ballou business cards last night, eagerly waiting for them to turn up.
Surely someone on here has tried making one into a pedal? Do you have any advice/guidance in my first pedal build?
I haven't ordered the
Smallbear Electronics kit - it costs a ton to ship a load of cheap components across the pond. Figured I could buy them here in the UK - do you know the best place??
The
component checklist says it requires two TL072P Op Amps - there are similar but not identical Op Amps on
RS-Online and
Maplin - I suppose I could experiment...
Comments
"P" means it's a DIP package I think (the standard-looking silicon chip legs, not surface mount etc.)
"CP" I think the "C" is the normal "Commercial" temperature range. Not rated for use in desert regions, or something
So I think P and CP and other versions will be good enough for 99.9% of what we hobbyists do. We'd probably have to peruse the data sheets to find the exact meaning of these suffixes.

Sounds good - I'll get in touch with you when they arrive.
