It might be worth trying an LM358 or a TL072...

also... you are using 2 IC's?

How do you have thou output configured?

Is it directly into you soundcard or speakers or amp?

That 386 could be the problem... the schematics ask for a Dual Opamp, the 386 is a single Power amp...

Try using an couple of LM358N's, they are dual opamps...

Ok, so I have built both the TubeReamer and the Little Gem...

I quite like the tone of them both...

Now, would I be able to use the Little Gem as a pre-amp for the TA8210 power amp?

Thanks for that!

Assuming I was to build an amp with the TA8210 chips, would this be the circuit to reproduce?

Obviously the red highlighted bits are the output, but I don't understand what to do with them...

Also, the blue highlighted bits... are they needed? if so how would I implement them?

and by adding a LOG/LIN pot to the output would act as a volume control?

I'm not a n00b at electronics... just a n00b with amps and IC's

Hi peeps...

I have aquired several op-amp IC's and am having a problem choosing what to build with them...

I have...

1 LM324N Quad Op's

1 LM358N Dual Op's

1 LM386N Single Op

2 TA8210AH 20w Dual Channel Power amps

and...

2 TL071CN J-FET Single Op's

Can anyone recommend a decent sounding pedal that uses any of these chips?

I have already built a SmashDrive with the 386, but I wasn't that impressed with it... I would prefare not to mess around with J-Fet's or other transistors (Unless they are generic)...

Any help would be much appreciated!
