I made a PDF and used Tayda's UV Printing Service. I wasn't sure how they would do with a gradient like this but, so far, Tayda has done a great job with everything I've thrown at them. I shared my PDF in the Artwork Repository Forum...

Here is a PDF for UV Printing. The control labels are spaced for 21mm OD sized knobs (like the cupcake style used on the original Eternity pedal). Looks good with Tayda's black enclosures. PDF: Link Matching drill template: Link Resize the LED hole per your preferences.

A very straightforward and easy build with a nice layout and no hard to obtain parts. I don't have many Tubescreamer based pedals, just a lightly modded 808 clone and the Pedal PCB version of the King Tone Soloist. I never connected with either of those but the stripped down design of the...

I'll probably try that first, since it is the easiest thing to try and I have to do it anyway to get the tubing on.

I can't remember where I read this but I believe AionFX says that part of the unique sound of this effect is the LEDs bleeding into the neighboring LDRs, so I hadn't considered trying any light insultation. However, I definitely think it's worth a shot since my main issues arise when the LEDs go...

Here is my build of the Aion FX Quadratron which is a clone of the Lovepedal Doppelganger Twin Phaser, an optical based phaser. I was initially attracted to this because the dual LFO mode is much subtler than the single LFO mode and the idea of being able to switch from a subtle worbling like...

I’ve had the PCB and UV graphics ready for this one for a while. It might have to jump a few places in the queue!

Nice! The XC Phase is one of my favorite pedals I’ve built from PPCB. Does anyone make an MXR phaser with the 45/90 and script/block switches? It’s a great idea.

My pets woke me up early so I took a stab at a possible solution. I soldered a pig tail to the voltage rail after the protection diode and connected it to the LED anodes via 10k ohm resistors. It gives the LEDs some constant current so they don’t get too dim at lower depth settings. Works well...

There's the culprit. I don't think I would have done that in desoldering so it probably wasn't sitting right from the beginning. I hope Chuck doesn't see this, I think I've already been socket shamed by him before. So, I'm back to where I was with a phaser that acts like a tremolo. Any advice...

Edit: Found the initial problem but would still like to modify the circuit to improve the modulation. Had some time to finish this one today. At first it was working mostly as intended . However, the LEDs were going full dim on every setting and it was creating a jarring and unpleasant...

According to an email I got from them, they are in the process of upgrading their enclosure painting equipment and have a limited capacity to handle painted enclosure orders until it is done. I think they are close to getting back to full capacity, as my outstanding orders are now going through...

I’m happy to take a look at it and try to verify the layering is correct if you want to send it to me privately. I won’t use it for any purpose other than helping you and I’ll delete any copies on my computer when I am done.

Can you post the pdf you uploaded?
