Ginger - The Ampeg SB-12 Portaflex adapted for use as a bass guitar distortion stompbox.   __ Contact: holler @ runoffgroove.Com

Grace / Big Daddy - A few months ago, Aron Nelson released the Smash Drive.  The circuit ingeniously used an LM386 audio power amp chip to produce great distortion sounds.  Aron based his work on that of Tim Escobedo.  Tim's Stupidity Box was another great sounding unit and beautifully simplistic.  The Smokey Amp by Bruce Zinky was another design that used a 386 for some great sounds. __ Contact: holler @ runoffgroove.Com

Guitar & Bass Sustain - A simple, low distortion limiter for musical instruments  __ Designed by Rod Elliott  ESP

Guitar & Microphone Amplifier using TDA2005M - This simple audio power amplifier works with guitars and microphones, delivering an output power of around 20W over a load of 4 ohms.  The amplifier circuit is built around IC TDA2005M and...__ Electronics Projects for You

Guitar Cable Tester - Here is a device that musicians will find highly useful.  It will detect breaks or shorts in a guitar or monitor cable.  Much more elaborate cable testers are available at music stores, but they are fairly complex and are mostly useful to road crews and t __ Designed by Andrew R. Morris

Guitar Control - Stand-alone, 9V battery powered unit; Three-level input selector, three-band tone control __ Contact: Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Guitar Effect - Fuzz is one of the classic guitar effects, and this simple circuit generates it quite well.  The circuit is so compact that it can be built into guitars or amps that do not have built in fuzz to add that capability to the instrument.  The circuit does not use much battery power, so a standard alkaline battery will last many years even with daily use.   __ Designed by Aaron Cake

Guitar Effect Pedal Power - A friend of mine plays guitar with several guitar effect pedals.  He had a problem with battery eliminators and cables of the pedals cluttering the stage and so he asked for...__ Electronics Projects for You

Guitar Fuzz Box - Fuzz is one of the classic guitar effects, and this simple circuit generates it quite well.  The circuit is so compact that it can be built into guitars or amps that do not have built in fuzz to add that capability to the instrument.  The circuit does not use much battery power, so a standard alkaline battery will last many years even with daily use.   __ Designed by Aaron Cake

Guitar Jammer for Practice & Jam Sessions - Build it and jam along with your favourite CD, or use it to practice without disturbing others.__ SiliconChip

Guitar Reverb Effect Version 2 - This is my second-generation guitar reverb circuit.  The fidelity is much improved over the earlier design, it is suitable for use as a front-end to a guitar amplifier.  This circuit features clipping indicators on the preamp and reverb recovery stages, allowing for the optimal gain settings __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Guitar Reverb Pedal - This is a circuit for a guitar spring reverb pedal, it has dry, wet, and drive controls for a wide variety of sounds.  With a decent reverb spring  (tank) in overdrive, this circuit will produce an incredibly thick and grungy sound, build one and be the envy of all of your guitar playing friends.  This thing is fun to play through __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Guitar Spring Reverb Unit - A high performance spring reverb unit for guitar amps __ Designed by Rod Elliott  ESP

Guitar Tremolo Unit - A versatile guitar effect.  This is a simple circuit that gives very good results __ Designed by Rod Elliott  ESP

Guitar Vibrato Unit - A reasonably simple circuit, with results similar to the Vox AC30 guitar amp __ Designed by Rod Elliott  ESP

Guitar Vibrato Unit 1 - A reasonably simple circuit, with results similar to the Vox AC30 guitar amp __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Hammonator 2RVT - 18 watt tube amp with reverb; adds pitch-shifting vibrato and tremolo __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Hammonator AO-14 Organ to Guitar Amp Conversion - 18 watt tube amp with reverb; adds pitch-shifting vibrato and tremolo __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Homebuilt MP3 Player - Welcome to Frank’s website, home of the do-it-yourself MP3 player, a DDS based signal generator, and more.  For the MP3 player pages, including source code & schematics, please click on the photo below.  Or use the menu on the left.   __ Designed by © © 2014 Frank Van Hooft

Infinite melody for music synthesizers - The name of this module is a play on its function.  Put simply, it generates a series of semi-random or themed stepped control voltages, or if you prefer, white and pink control voltages.  The pink function is probably better known as 1/f, and thus the name of "1l/lfinite melody". __ Designed by Ken Stone

Infrared Theremin Musical Instrument - The constituents of the electronic circuitry in the invention are represented in the following figure, "Block Diagram of the Optical Theremin.  " Note that the interconnecting lines and arrows in the figure are representative of the signal process sequence, and not representative of specific electrical connections __ Designed by Arthur Harrison

Intercom with Musical Ringtone - Here’s a low-cost two-way intercom circuit with musical ringtone that can be made using readily available components  (see Fig.1) .Melody generator IC UM66  (IC1) generates ringtone for the intercom circuit.__ Electronics Projects for You

Interface MIDI Instruments to a PC through a USB Port - 04/17/08  EDN-Design Ideas - You can interface MIDI-equipped musical instruments to a PC via a USB port Design by Stefano Palazzolo, Senago, Milan, Italy

IR Music Transmitter & Receiver - Using this circuit, audio musical notes can be generated and heard up to a distance of 10 metres.  The circuit can be divided into two parts: IR music transmitter and receiver.__ Electronics Projects for You

JFET matching fixture - A circuit which can match JFETs for Vgs at a "typical" current, which produces good results for JFET-type phasers like the Phase 90.   __ Designed by Guitar Effect RC Keen

Latching Relay Bypass - Latching Relay Bypass Circuit  __ Designed by Guitar Effect RC Keen

LED Musicolour: Light Up Your Music, Pt.1 - Now you can have a kaleidoscope of colour which continually changes in time to music.  This consists of 16 strings of LEDs which are individually controlled by 16 frequency bands.  Louder signals in each of those bands means that the respective LED string will be brighter.  Use it for a Christmas light show, a disco or just for fun when playing music.__ SiliconChip

LED Musicolour: Light Up Your Music, Pt.2 - The new LED Musicolour makes building a spectacular light and music show easier than ever.  In this second and final instalment, we explain how to build and test the unit and also detail how you can control it.__ SiliconChip

Light Alarm with LDR - This musical light alarm circuit is very simple, uses only 7 components, a LDR and a 3.6 V battery or 3 x 1.2 volts rechargeable batteries.  The well-known UM66 is used as the sound generator and will give a pleasent wake up alarm.  As you probably know the LDR is a light dependent resistor.  Normally the resistance of an LDR is __ Designed by Popescu Marian

Lil' Tiger AO-43 Organ to Guitar Amp Conversion - with reverb, pitch-shifting vibrato and tremolo __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Liquidator Tube Phaser/Chorus Effect - This project involves the conversion of a Hammond AO-47 organ vibrato unit into a 4 phase guitar/music phaser/chorus box.  The individual phase signals can be mixed for a wide variety of sounds.  The Liquidator name comes from the liquidy sounds that the device creates, it wiggles the audio all around.  Used Hammond vibrato units can often be purchased for little money on eBay and provide the majority of the circuitry for this device.  The Hammond AO-41 box can also be used for this project, it has a similar phaser circuit and one extra 7 pin tube socket.  Here is the Original Hammond AO-47 Schematic for reference. __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Little Guitar Amp - I built this little guitar amp for my brother, Rich, a while back.  Originally it was sort of a Fender "Champ" copy with a 12AX7 front end.  I recently converted it to use a single EF86 pentode, instead.  I like it much better this way.  The amp chassis fits into a small maple open-back box with a single 10" speaker.  Rich built the box __ Designed by Bob Danielak

Low pass filter for subwoofer -  The acoustic spectrum is extended by very low frequencies 20Iz and reaches as the 20000Iz in high frequencies.  In the low frequencies is degraded the sense of direction.  This reason us leads to the utilization speaker for the attribution of very low frequencies.  The manufacture that to you we propose distinguishes these frequencies, in order to him we lead to the corresponding amplifier.  The acoustic filters are met in various points in the sound systems.
