Maxon Od808 Schematic

Therefore, the maxon od808 distorts signal in the amplifier circuit itself which yields a smoother, milder, more natural sounding distortion than a separate clipping stage. Inside there is a modified schematic of the very first tube screamer.

Having read all sorts of bs on the interwebs about ts versions, i triehd to trace it a few years ago, copying the pcb, and cloning it part for part.

Maxon od808 schematic. I certainly didn't have an issue with the switch on the od808, as others have stated. I can't write a deacent sentence today. This unit isn't per that schematic due to only one dual opamp being used.

This pedal has a lot of history and is as popular as a tube screamer ts9 by ibanez. The od808 is indeed great. After the unit's initial release it was discovered to have a high susceptibility to noise due to static electricity buildup.

I used mine with my old 6505. Maxon od 801 d s large case. Others were close, but the od808 just had a little bit more creaminess to it.

Tokyo, japan (1,133) preferred seller. The st9 has a g100k tone pot, according to dirk hendrik's tracing. So this unit is apparently the latter re.

The stls is the typical ts tone pot, g20k, according to the factory schematic. Maxon developed this unique design more than 20 years ago, an industry first that is commonplace today. Some schematics available show the input and output buffers to be implemented with a lm1458 opamp instead of npn transistors.

Of my many ts builds, on one (a son of screamer) ever got 100% there. These opamps are two jfet transistors in one package, but with different. If you can find schematics online you can see for your self.

I read somewhere that those two are different in just few resistors. The positions are reversed like in the od808. Compared to tube screamer, which uses jfet transistors, maxon od808 uses operational amplifiers, or opamps for short.

I have a friend who can do it for me, but i need schematics. The supply filter cap is a 100uf/16v, so you can use 9 or 12v supply;

I also want to try a homebrew (hbe) power screamer. While many consider the od808 to be the greatest overdrive ever created, maxon is not a company to rest on its laurels. Featuring a jrc4558, the od808 offers the same natural overdriven tones as the original pedals used widely across all genres of music.

This is also the reason that the ic type used in the circuit has such a large impact on the unit's tone. This is the schematic for the od808 reissue! Even all the ts5,ts10,ts9 are only 3 component swaps away from being a ts808.

Some schematics available show the input and output buffers to be implemented with a lm1458 opamp instead of npn transistors. Does anyone have schematics for that job? Maxon developed the od808 circuit more than 40 years ago, and since then it's become the most used, most imitated and most lauded overdrive circuit of all time.

If there's no real difference in the two i will probably just buy the $120 maxon to save some money. Compared to tube screamer, which uses jfet transistors, maxon od808 uses operational amplifiers, or opamps for short. Reissue, made in japan around 2008.

Yeah, i found that one too last night. The od808 was my first overdrive pedal. These opamps are two jfet transistors in one package, but with different characteristics, which gives them difference in sound.

If you want to spend a little more, either one of the maxon pedals are nice. They have a 470r series resistor and a 10k shunt resistor. It's a great ts pedal, no matter what the circuit actually is.

The maxon od808 is an identical circuit to the original ts808 tubescreamer maxon designed and built in the late 1970s. The added mid bump character enables a bolder overdrive that better cuts through the mix, especially since blackface fenders temp to be glassy and mid. The output resistors are different (in a slight different configuration) when compared with a.

But, the maxon 808 is an identical circuit to the ts808. For 18v you need to replace it with a 25v cap.
