    Pork Barrel 2019

    FX TYPE: Modulation
    Based on the Boss® CE-2™

    New for 2019

    The 2019 version is the same basic circuit as before but has an optional Blend control added. This
    control allows you to blend between dry, chorus and vibrato effects. The Blend control is implemented
    with minimal modification in mind. If you want to build a traditional CE-2 only, simply omit the Blend
    pot. Not other changes are necessary.

    Overview

    The Pork Barrel is a clone of the classic Boss® CE-2™. The CE-2™ has a signature sound and been
    a staple of many guitar and bass pedal boards for decades. Next to the EHX Small Clone, it is one of
    the most instantly recognizable chorus effects out there. Even if you don’t like chorus, this is one of
    the best analog ones ever made.

    The Pork Barrel is designed to utilize several different BBD types depending on availability and price.
    Minimal modifications are required to set the build up for these different BBDs, and this will be ex-
    plained in detail later on in this document.

    Controls

    • RATE: Chorus speed from slow to fast.


    • DEPTH: Chorus depth from min to max.
    • BLEND: Mix of dry, chorus and vibrato. CCW is dry (no modulation), 1/4 up to middle is chorus
    and fully CW is vibrato.
    • T1: Sets he bias of the chorus effect.

    Terms of Use: You are free to use purchased Pork Barrel circuit boards for both DIY and small commercial operations. You may not
    offer Pork Barrel PCBs for resale or as part of a “kit” in a commercial fashion. Peer to peer re-sale is fine, though.

    Notes
    What are the advantages of the different BBDs?

    The vintage unit used the MN3007. You can safely use 9 – 12v DC to power the effect, with the higher voltage providing
    a small amount of additional headroom. Note that if you use 12v, you will want it to be well regulated either by your power
    supply, or by using a charge pump like the Road Rage. Anything over 12v will not work for this design. It may be possible
    to mod the circuit for 15v operation but I’ve never tried it so I cannot advise on what exactly to change.

    The MN3207, v3207 and BL3207 have lower current requirements, are less expensive and easier to source. These BBDs
    should not be operated at higher than 9vDC. IMO, there is little to no difference in the different BBD types for the CE-2™.

    BBD Chart

    These are the combinations of BBD and clocks you can use when building the Pork Barrel.
    IC2 (BBD) IC3 (Clock) Zener (D4) Max Power
    MN3007 MN3101 12v or 15v 12v
    MN3207 MN3102 9.1v 9v
    BL3207 BL3102 9.1v 9v
    v3207 v3102 9.1v 9v

    Jumpers

    You must set one pair of jumpers on the Pork Barrel PCB to correspond to the type of BBD you are using. These jumpers
    determine which pins get power and ground, and sets R20 to be a pull-up or pull-down resistor.

    Biasing

    Biasing the Pork Barrel is very straight forward. Set your Rate knob to its midpoint and the Depth knob to maximum. Ad-
    just the T1 trimmer until you get the maximum chorus effect with minimal distortion. That’s it!

    Blend Pot

    You can omit the Blend control by simply not soldering in the pot. This gives you chorus only and is exactly like the previ-
    ous versions of the Pork Barrel.

    Speed Mod

    Because the CE-2 was not designed to be a vibrato, its overall speed range is not ideal for that type of effect (assum-
    ing you like really fast vibrato). You can modify the LFO to get a much faster max speed but it comes with the caveat of
    shifting the slowest speed forward as well. If you want to try different speed ranges, socket R33. Try a 470k or 680k there
    (lower values means faster speeds). Check the new range with both the Chorus and Vibrato settings on the Blend pot to
    see if you like it. FYI: a different way to modify the range is leave R33 at 1M and change C19 to 82n or 68n.

    1590B Drill Guide

    I recommend using the smaller Lumberg style jacks for the


    input, output and DC jacks on this build. It’s a tight fit in the
    1590B.

    This is at least my 5th Pork Barrel build and maybe 7th or 8th
    CE-2 overall.

    Some voltages on IC1 will vary depending on where T1 is set.
