I caught several comments on the previous video (youtube.com/watch?v=kWTrXkQS-50) asking about the difference between a Boss DS-1 distortion and a Boss SD-1 overdrive, and if one could be modified to the other's specs. In this video I'll go full nerd and talk about each schematic, but hopefully in a way that's easy to understand even if you don't know anything about electronics at all.
I just realized we passed 50k subscribers, cool 😊
Maybe a giveaway/contest is in order? Details coming up on that in a video shortly.
Are there any other pedals you'd like for me to discuss the circuits on?
