  • Here is the second in a series of pedals we are offering to commemorate our shop dog Franklin. Based on the classic Fuzz Face circuit, it features NOS metal can BC108 transistors. Finishing touches include an Alchemy Audio rivet badge, Franklin’s paw print inside (see second photo) and one of his old vaccination tags. All proceeds from the sale will be donated to a local animal rescue. This stompbox is certain to give the owner unrelenting fuzzy joy - just as Franklin did for us. $100.

  • Fresh off the bench: 2 in 1 tremolo / reverb. The tremolo is based on the EA (Electronics Australia) circuit. It nails those vintage Blackface Fender vibes. The reverb features the Belton BTDR-3H module, one of the best spring reverb modules available. It can cover everything from subtle shimmer to cavernous, endless reverb. These effects function individually or together - adding significant character to any amplifier. Of course, the pedal features quality parts and construction inside a one-of-a-kind enclosure with swirl painted, distressed finish, Alchemy Audio rivet badge, and rose gold knobs! True bypass. 9V DC power.

  • We’ve been modifying the classic ProCo Rat for years. We’ve seen lots of mods out there - including some “kitchen sink” versions that have a lot of useless switches and whatnot. Ours features our “Dead Bat” dying 9V battery circuit and a three position clipping diode switch. Then, we tweak the circuit for smoother gain and improved bass / mids. We keep all the stuff that makes this pedal great without adding anything you don’t want.

  • New mod day! You may have noticed that Boss has been transitioning to smd circuits for their pedals. We noticed the change about a year and a half ago, beginning with the classic DS-1 Distortion (pictured). We’ve also seen it with the BD-2 Blues Driver and SD-1 Super Overdrive. As a result, these new circuits can not be modified. Until now! We knew all of the extra room inside (see the second photo) presented an opportunity. We fired up the soldering station, cranked up some Stones, and got to work! Here is the result: we added a boost circuit (based on the ZVex Super Hard On). It has it’s own status LED (that cool blue glow you see in the side) and volume control. It can go from sparkly cleans to raunchy gain - with the twist of just one knob! Best of all, it works together or independently of the regular DS-1 circuit! It’s like having two pedals in one! Trust us, this mod is worthy of all the exclamation points we have used! Available soon. Stomp on something special! • • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #makerspace @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #diypedals #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal

  • Tech 21 SansAmp GT2 in for a repair. The folks at Tech 21 are great people who make cool gear. Anytime I’ve interacted with them, it’s been pleasant. However, if you’ve ever serviced their gear, you know what a complete pain it is. The input / output jacks need to be completely de-soldered to remove the pcb from the enclosure. There are additional connections to the DC power jack and footswitch that need to be disconnected (pro tip: be sure to snap some ‘before’ photos) What should have been a simple 5 minute job to clean and lubricate the potentiometers became a 45 minute process. Because we repair a ton of gear, we have valuable insight on how various companies design and build their gear. This is an example of how not to do it. And, don’t even get us started on gooped circuit boards.... • • • • • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #makerspace @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #diypedals #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal #workbench #repairshop #whatsonyourbench #fixit

  • Here’s a freshly modified Boss DD-6. It doesn’t seem to get as much love as the 3, 5 and 7 but, like the 3 and 5, we can install the popular “analog” mod (the DD-7 has this feature already). The repeats become darker, with a bit of “grit” - more “analog” sounding.

  • Here’s the first in a limited series of pedals to commemorate our shop dog Franklin, who we said goodbye to on May 8th. This is a single knob fuzz based on the Colorsound circuit. Franklin’s paw print is inside, and one of his old vaccination tags adorns the outside. 100% of the proceeds from the sale will benefit a local (Chicago) animal rescue.

  • Our Boss TR-2 tremolo mod adds a dual depth / volume knob - allowing you to boost the effect, if desired. Early versions of this pedal suffered from a volume drop when the effect was engaged. In fact, with the rate and depth turned all the way down, you could even use this as a stand-alone boost! We also add a second footswitch to allow you to select between fast / slow tremolo speeds - similar to the @fulltoneeffects Supa-Trem. The bi-color LED flashes at the rate of speed when bypassed - allowing you to see where your rate is set before engaging the effect. Additionally, our circuit mods tweak the sound to a more vintage, Fender-y vibe. These two are for sale ($139.95 each). Or, send yours in to modify.

  • Our Boss DD-5 mod adds an internal tap tempo switch - eliminating the need to connect an external switch (you still can, if you desire). Another cool feature is you can tap out your tempo while in bypass and it will be set for you when you engage the effect. We also add a stock / “analog” switch - which affects the repeats, making them “darker” and more “analog” sounding. We upgrade the knobs and LED too!

  • Another microphone mod fresh off the bench! This ubiquitous, inexpensive MXL990 has a LOT of room for improvement. This one received a capsule upgrade. This is the “heart” of your microphone and offers the best “bang for your buck” concerning improvements. The upgraded capsule is modeled after those found in the classic Neumann U47. The result is smooth, full lows (sub 150Hz), a wide presence peak (between 1 - 8kHz) and a reduction in the harsh 14kHz peak found in the stock capsule. Suddenly, this humble $60 microphone can stand toe to toe with those costing hundreds of dollars more. We have one of these for sale but can also modify yours (as well as many other brands / models). • • • • • • #recording #recordingstudio #recordingstudios #recordingengineer #recordproducer #musicproducer #musicproduction #inthestudio #microphone #microphones #studiogear #gearshots #gearslutz #recordingsession #recordingmusic #studiosession #producer #mixengineer #homerecordingstudio #homerecording #audiorecording #audioengineer #audioscapeengineering #audioproduction #audiogear #homestudio #studiosession

  • We’re going to press ‘pause’ on work for a moment to honor this guy, whom we said goodbye to yesterday. Even though Franklin was behind the scenes, he was a loyal ‘shop dog’. In fact, he was there from the beginning of Alchemy Audio when I was modifying pedals late at night on our kitchen counter. He was a loyal, goofy companion for nearly 15 years. It’s going to be a bit strange around the shop without his presence. Rest easy, sweet prince! • • • • • • #pitbull #shopdog #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogs #dogstagram #dogsofinsta #dogslife #pitbullsofinstagram #pitbulls #pitbullterrier #pitbulllove #doggo #doglover #workdog #bringyourdogtowork #dogsmile #dogportrait #doginstagram

  • Here’s a Digitech Whammy in for a repair. It arrived to us non-working with a power supply (pictured) poorly soldered to where the power jack normally would be. Of course, the measure of all great work is to have LOTS of electrical tape wrapped around it.😀Presumably, someone’s Uncle was confident he could fix this when the power jack broke - using some random power supply they had in a shoebox. Unfortunately, it was not the correct power supply (12V DC). Once removed and the correct replacement jack was installed, we supplied 9V AC and - bam! We once again had crazy pitch-shifting goodness! While we appreciate and endorse the DIY ethos, it is important to know your limitations. Another pedal successfully resurrected and saved from the trash! • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #makerspace @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #diypedals #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #repairshop #workbench #whatsonyourbench #workshop #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal

  • Not a modification we do often but always fun! These old Radio Shack pzm microphones have a cult following among studio engineers. We eliminate the anemic battery pack / unshielded output transformer and build a circuit (housed in a fancy enclosure with power LED and Alchemy Audio badge) that allows 48V shielded phantom power. Other benefits include increased bass response, lower distortion and reduced hum. We know a few engineers who leave these set up as room mics in their studios - always ready to use, allowing them to dial in some ambient room sound at any time. Got one (or two) you want modified?

  • It is a ridiculously tight fit inside but our compact signal buffer will take up only the smallest space on your pedalboard. Based on the highly-regarded buffer portion of the famous Klon Centaur circuit, this is the perfect solution for your rig - especially if you have long cable runs or many true bypass pedals. You can supply it with anywhere from 9 - 18V DC. Best of all, it’s only $49.95 - making it an affordable way to support our humble little company.

  • If you came of age as a guitar player in the 90’s, it’s likely you owned this pedal. Your Grandma may have even bought you one for Christmas because she heard you like “the grunge” music. If you still have one of these tucked away in a closet, let us make it more useable! Our mod smooths out the enormous amount of harsh gain, firms up the bass, and makes the EQ more useable throughout its range. Dig out that old flannel shirt and dust off those Tad (obscure band reference alert!) and Mudhoney riffs.

  • Here’s a couple of Devi Ever LP clones. These produce a glitchy effect that simulates a skipping record. They can get pretty gritty as you increase the volume. We may be biased but we think they are worth it just for the aesthetics alone (including Alchemy Audio rivet badge and 45 record adapter with matching knobs, LED and DC power jack.

  • Our mod for the Electro-Harmonix Freeze adds a sturdy arcade button footswitch and matching chicken head knob. No more annoying click from the stock footswitch! To be fair, Electro-Harmonix now ships these with a “soft click” stock footswitch (just not a cool video game button like this! 😎) And, yes, we are aware the arcade button is slightly off center. It needs to be in order to fit around the pcb inside. Available in a variety of colors (red, blue, green, yellow, black, white - even pink!)

  • The Ibanez SD-9 is a pedal you either love or hate with the passion of 1000 white-hot suns. Personally, I’ve never been able to dial in a sound on the stock pedal that I’m 100% satisfied with. The main critique is the tone control is unusable beyond about 9 o’clock (unless a piercing, “icepick” sound is what you seek). The output volume is also quite anemic. We’ve continued to research and develop a mod for these with the goal to make the tone control more responsive and boost the output level. This particular one became our test subject throughout the week and we are happy to report progress! We installed two toggle switches: one selects between the stock diodes and a modified formula - giving you a slight volume boost without sacrificing the amount of available distortion. The ‘middle’ position gives you a huge volume boost by bypassing the diodes completely. The second toggle switch is more subtle. It’s a two position switch with stock / mod settings - providing a bit more “body” to the tone and making the range of the tone control more useable. I’d still call this a work in progress but it’s much closer to being perfected. Stay tuned... • • • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #makerspace @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #diypedals #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal

  • Gut shot: 1968 “top badge” Cry Baby wah. This came into the shop in need of some attention. Someone had previously been inside and attempted to “clean up” the wiring. The inductor was also intermittent. The wah effect would disappear until you wiggled it just the right way. We were able to get it all sorted out. Now it’s good for another 50 years! • • • • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #crybabywah #wahpedal #wahwah @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #wah #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal #workbench #workshop

  • These DOD YJM308 overdrives are nearly identical to the classic 250 in the yellow enclosure - which we think is still one of the best values out there for guitar effects (used versions can be purchased regularly for $50). Our modification takes these to the next level - adding true bypass switching, an LED and DC power jack, 3 position diode switch and circuit mods for improved gain and EQ.

  • These are crazy times, my friends. Now more than ever, small businesses (like ours!) can really use your support. In addition to pedal mods, repairs and builds, we also make custom cables - such as these premium 3 foot DC pedal power supply cables. We have these for sale in our @reverb shop (link on our web site). If you are in a position to do so, please consider picking up a little something - even if it’s just a simple, inexpensive item such as a guitar cable or our ‘Dead Bat’ dying 9V battery simulator. It makes a world of difference and helps us keep the lights on, our dogs fed and toilet paper in the pantry (that is, if we could find any 🤣).

  • We’ve had a few customers check in and we really appreciate the concern. It’s business as usual here at Alchemy Audio. In fact, here’s a fresh shipment of pedals from @xoticusa. We modify these and relocate the internal dip switches to the outside in the form of toggle switches. These can be ordered directly from our site or our @reverb store. Got a pedal in need of repair or modification? Send it in! Our current turnaround time is minimal since we have no social life at the moment.😎 We’ve been considering offering private consultations via Skype where we’d assist with troubleshooting repairs, mods and builds. Is this something you all would be interested in? • • • • • • #effectspedal #effectpedals #effectspedals #stompbox #stompboxes #pedalboard #gearshots #geartalk #knowyourtone #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #makerspace @alchemyaudio #alchemyaudio #diypedals #fx #guitarfx #fxpedals #guitar #guitarpedal #guitarpedals #guitareffect #guitareffects #guitareffectspedals #effectpedal

  • Here’s a modified Tube Screamer. We install a relay-based true bypass switching circuit which allows you to use the existing footswitch. We also modify the circuit to TS-808 specs.
