dBs Patchbay - Build a 10dB Boost

A hands-on electronics workshop where participants build and modify a 10dB boost amplifier circuit on a prototyping board they keep.

This two-hour workshop at dBs Plymouth guides participants through prototyping a 10dB boost circuit, the kind of amplifier found in pre-amps and guitar boost pedals. Attendees build their own circuit on a prototyping board to keep, then learn to modify it for more gain or drive it into distortion as a creative effect. Aimed at beginners curious about audio electronics, it is open to ages 16+ with no prior experience needed.
