Hi all, I finally had some good weather to clear coat some projects I started over the winter. Here is my build of a PCB 037. This board...

Hi all, I see that I can get 1uf caps in MLCC and film variety - is there a reason to use an electrolytic cap instead? Rather, if the...

Do you guys use these things? I'm married to them at work but I've never used them when building pedals. Most of my builds come out okay...

What I did was purchase a 16GB flash drive, download Windows 10 from the Microsoft website (found it googling windows for mac/boot camp...

^ Thank you. I breadboarded the Fuzz Aldrin last night and that's what I discovered, the caps going to ground affect the highs. and mid...

^ does the decoupling cap need to be electrolytic?

Hi all, I'm learning more about circuit design. I noticed the Enchanted Boost doesn't use an electrolytic decoupling input cap, rather a...

Hi all, I built a Sandspur, which I love for its warm yet bright, saturated tone. Many pedals sound dark to me, especially with reverb...

The 386's output drives an LED directly in this circuit. Maybe the extra current drive it's capable of was needed for this purpose...

From what I've read on the LM386, it's an audio amplifier meant to drive a speaker, and in this case it's driving a PT2399. Various...

why not?

Hi all, I'm combing over the schem for the Chalumeau and I'm wondering why the design doesn't use a TL071 rather than the LM386? All the...

I swapped out the IC for a TL072 and the hiss is gone. The OPA2134 had "BB" on it

Most of the time they come undone easy, but some are more stubborn. If you have an adjustable temp iron, turn it up to around 750F, or...

I'm not sure. I built an Aion Blueshift and it spec'd tantalums as well as low profile electrolytics so I would assume there is a...
