OK, this is fancier than what we used to build (I could have sworn we used resistors, one of which was a potentiometer to adjust the amount of fuzz added) but looks servicable: http://culturalflow.com/netlabels/electronic-musik/1971-fuzzbox-circuit-project-full-instructions-diy Note that it works by overamplifying the signal. The ones I recall building worked by adding the noise of battery current to the otherwise normal audio signal. But maybe I'm recollecting things wrong. That was a long time ago. Looks like it has step-by-step instructions Michael could use. ;-) -- David gn...@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://dancingtreefrog.com http://clanjones.org/david/ http://dancing-treefrog.deviantart.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
