The Anniversary Dirt Pedal

I really like this pedal; can get along with active pickup, small speaker, bigger speaker. When plugged into orange micro dark, it become extension to the amp; turns it into two channel amp, adds more tonal range, allows to play high gain at low volume, and not having to deal with high end fizz on high gain. Adds option to connect effects like flanger and octave in front of amp after this pedal (I can't quite do it with amp's dirt on high gain setting, usually it ruin those pedal sounds).

1. I try to avoid typical knobs arrangements. Tone frequency potentiometer gets bigger knob because that is the most to fiddle around. Drive knob the small one below adds grit, sustain, and some treble. Volume on top left can be used as clean boost when cranked and drive dialed back.

2. Rather simple circuit and no clipping diodes utilized pretty much the jrc386d opamp handles it all. Rewired, boxed into 1590b and ready for some sabbath riffs.
