If you go with the intelligent relays, you can connect the control pads and it will behave that way. You could probably even add a toggle between the control pads connection to go between A/B to A+B https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/relaybypass/

Here’s the post-mortem, which might be interesting for some folks: https://blog.cloudflare.com/18-november-2025-outage/

Imagine being the person that caused the feature file to double in size, making it too large to read and then it replicates across all nodes globally while everyone’s thinking it’s a DDOS attack.

I was wondering if something like that might be the case- thanks!

I tried to encapsulate it all in the title. All the 220uf caps I have on hand are either 10v, or these clown shoe 50v ones that I’m not sure I can fit. Or, alternatively- does it need to be 220?

Your build report helped bump this up in my queue! I can definitely see it being used as an always on. It gives it a little body, tames out some of the brittle frequencies, smooths out the glassy tones yet remains bright. It doesn’t have that awkward release where it’s like your dynamics are...

I like compressors on guitar. The pump, the thump. The squish. It’s been a sort-of side quest while exploring the wide world of gain devices. So far, I’ve built the Thumb Sucker, Closed Circuit Booster Limiter, Byrdhouse, and the Median. This build became practical after the THAT2159 became...

If you never build it with the charge pump, could the electrolytic capacitors be lower than 35v?

There’s a Schutone designed M-117 that fits in a 1590A! Not sure if you can get your hands on one though. https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/mxr-m-117-flanger.26887/#post-345744

I think this will help. It’s a drill template for the microsplit. You just need to put the one hole for the TRS cable on the other side for the DC jack, and possibly drill it a little smaller if you like. https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/drill/1590A-MicroSplit-Passive.pdf

Dude. I’ll assume you’re not trolling for a second. Swelchy is one of the nice people here- he never picks on people. There’s a lot of nice people here. He was just giving a suggestion because it’s two three holes. You don’t have to take that as a suggestion, though I think it’s a good one. He...

MBP Pork Barrel is a Boss CE-2 that fits in a 1590B

Doesn’t have to be But srsly, awesome build!

Even then, you can use a nut on the inside to make the outie protrude less. I just ordered the Low Tide- I’m trying to remember why I didn’t opt for the mini version… Maybe for that classic memory man style layout. Anyway, great build and bird knowledge as always.

Not strictly required, but it might not be a bad idea. I’d say if needed. If you’re doing a long cable run, or you notice there’s some high-end loss, a buffer might be good.
