Joe	Re: page updates Thanks! I have Corel Draw 8 set up to draw stuff, because you can lay out parts/traces/pads on separate layers. The curvy swirvy effect is done using a median filter before converting the final bitmap to black and white. The 680k resistor reduces the output to a sane level, otherwise it's way too high. Those 150k & 6.8k resistors between stages are the same idea, to prevent too much gain. Otherwise, even low setttings would have ridiculous gain The goal is to distort more gradually instead of all at once.
