Pelota 2 Delay (Sheepy Love & Dylan159)

I have five of these PCBs, minus the one going to @dcfvgb, I have four left free to whoever wants one. @bluedmc777 if you only need one I can save you the fabrication cost.

In that case I'll hold off on the jlcpcb order, build the one first.
I've been looking for a good relatively affordable parts cost delay to build a 2 in 1 stereo/mono for fun without reinventing the wheel. If a a diehard analog delay fan loves a 2399 circuit it's got to be good! Then I'll order some boards and give the extras to anyone that wants one.
 
Howdy all. I also have a set of these PCBs coming from JLCPCB, I am using 2 (maybe three) but would be happy to share 2 of them. Probably won't arrive for a couple of weeks - I am never in enough of a hurry to pay for any shipping upgrades...

How much do 5 pcbs usually cost the way you guys are getting them?

With JLCPCB, five is the minimum quantity for a PCB. If you go with all the default options, and the cheapest shipping, it’s usually like $2 for the PCBs and $5ish for shipping. So under $10.

That $2 for the PCB implies an automatically applied coupon. So if you add another batch of five PCBs, that, and subsequent batches will be… $5 or $7 each (can’t remember exactly).

Of course if you want a four layer board, ENIG finish, castellated holes, big/weird shapes/sizes, etc, the cost can creep up pretty quickly. But for basic two layer boards, it’s really crazy how cheaply you can get a custom PCB made and shipped to your house from the other side of the world.

What about *cough* tariffs *cough*?
 
Anyone measure the max delay time? I hooked mine up to my scope and I'm getting a lil over 700ms that's usable, Every other 2399 I've had is degraded by 600ms

I hooked mine up to my ears and I'm hearing the same as you. I've always believed the delay times were limited by the particular 2399 IC but maybe I'm wrong about that?

Got mine from tayda, maybe the fakes are better than the originals lol? I also tried a BPM metronome test, longest repeats line up with 79bmp. Using the formula 60s/79bpm =.759 seconds.

IIRC While researching the pt2399 I saw that it can be extended by changing the clock timing but with a potential loss in fidelity depending on how far you try to extend it.
Though I don't know enough about how or why to elaborate further.

Aren’t they similar to bbd’s in that the longer they’re pushed the more degraded they get? I’ve always found pt2399s to start degrading around 400ms or so which I assume is where the clever filtering helps because some just don’t sound good to me beyond that point.
