    Power Supply recommendations? (Anything inexpensive and reliable?)

    I bought mine in 2020, never had any issues with it. I use it almost every days and unplugg it from the wall outlet once i am done playing music. Sometimes it stays plugged and powered on all day. I always use every outputs for my endless pedal train, although i don't switch everything on at...

    Power Supply recommendations? (Anything inexpensive and reliable?)

    I'm using the ENGL power tap, couldn't be happier. Only downside is that there is only one 500mA output, and i have a couple of circuits with real tubes now, so one more 500mA would have been nice, but it's a great power tap at a reasonable price with lots of outputs, including 9V, 18V and 12V...

    Soldat Distortion (Providence SDT-2), GCI N.E.W HM-2, Frequency Interchange Filter

    On my build, with all controls at noon, unity gain is around 11 o'clock, meaning somewhere in the first half of the volume pot rotation, near the middle. With all controls at max settings, unity volume is around 9 o'clock, slightly above the first quarter of the volume pot's rotation. I did...

    Tube question : TAD RT372 vs RT272

    Thanks for your replies ! Interesting. I'm not sure i would be able to do that, though. I've never touched an amp's circuitry before, so i guess i'll leave it as it is, until the day i know a bit more about it. That's my one and only tube amp, so i guess i'd need some old cheap tube amp that i...

    Tube question : TAD RT372 vs RT272

    Hello, I need a new spare set of tubes for my Blues Junior 3 : 3x ECC82 and 2x EL84 The original tubes are getting fried one by one after 9 or 10 years of service. EL84 were GT Groove Tubes, the ECC82 are still fine so far, but i guess after 10 years they will also fry sometime soon. Looking...

    I agree. And it's all on @owlexifry (again) with his builder J and builder K : and (as usual) @Feral Feline : I did my best to keep us on the subject, but i'll admit i let both of them push me on the wrong path, very briefly. It won't happen again. Edit : In defense for our dear and...

    Right, and that's why i think Robert didn't post a reply in this thread. From what i could understand, Robert probably didn't spend countless hours enjoying and exploring each and every single pcb he has made. He probably focuses on the pcb design, not on the effect and all its artistic...

    I agree, and also if we mention in our top-5 list how much PPCB circuits we have built in total. An opinion from a fellow member who has built only 10 circuits so far, could be compared to the opinion from an other fellow member who built and really spent some time playing with hundreds of...

    My guess is that these circuits are bought by dozens by diy builders looking to make a buck online, reselling PPCB effects to music gear consumers. I wouldn't say they are the most popular among the diy community or among experienced music players, but rather the easiest ones to sell online by...

    [SOLVED] JamMan Xt Solo power supply replacement question

    I just received the power supply replacement. It's a regular 9V power supply, with an adaptor to fit the JamMan DC jack. I just tried it and it seems that everything is working correctly. Thank you for your help !

    Oh ? I didn't know this could work too. I only have acrylic paint though... I'll give it a try someday if the occasion presents itself. Thanks for the tip !

    Bass Dude, Omnilooper, F-24 Multi-FX

    About the Pro-cessor, I chose board mounted jacks, but i would choose the offboard wiring if i had to do it again. I really struggled to fit everything in the box because of the board mounted jacks. I remember i almost gave up, with drops of sweat running down my forehead. A real nightmare...

    [SOLVED] JamMan Xt Solo power supply replacement question

    Thank you so much for your help ! I do have the Manual and the box and everything. I ordered some power supply replacement after some online research. It's a PS0920DC-01. If the DC connector plug isn't right, i will cut it off and use the old one instead. Thanks again !

    Should I let my pregnant wife help me populate PCBs?

    Caps, resistors, sockets, jacks and pcb are probably safer than pots, but i wouldn't touch any sensitive part of my body after touching those, without washing my hands first. I often notice that my fingers are sticky after handling potentiometers. They probably are covered with some sort of...
