A short backstory about this PCB:
To give my personal 808 a break, I searched for a suitable replacement to park on my board, but not all clones sounded or worked closely enough to replace the real deal. After trying several different true bypass versions of the circuit from several sources, trying to find a balance between authenticity in sound and the use of easily obtainable parts, I never found one that quite nailed what I was looking for. Then I remembered an old stripboard version that I made a while back using a layout published in 2012. With peaked curiosity, I began searching through various “pedal purgatory” drawers, found the old build, and brought it straight to the test box alongside the actual 808 for comparison. BINGO! That was it. So I worked off of that and created a prototype PCB, which tested extremely well. Later adding spots for using either EBC pinout transistors (2N5088/89, etc) or ECB pinout transistors (2NSC1815) for the input/output buffers to allow for more customization onboard without the use of adapter boards or having to twist transistor legs. Enter the Matcha PCB. Finally a true bypass TS build that was able to find a home on my pedal board.
