    Solved: 3pdt footswitch issue?

    Anyone ever have an issue with 3pdt footswitch? Ive built about 20 pedals and never had an issue. Just finished a hudson broadcast (duocast) build and if the bypass footswitch is not in the screw-hole, the pedal works fine. If i feed it through the hole (doesnt matter if i attach the washer)...

    SOLVED War scythe (hoof reaper) octave squeal

    On hoof side, confident. The gt404 i have for the reaper side not as much. Those shouldn’t affect the octave portion though right? Essentially theres a high pitch noise that kicks in when i turn the octave on and can almost hear an oscillating pattern to it. The audio probe first picks it up at...

    SOLVED War scythe (hoof reaper) octave squeal

    Yea i took q2 out of the socket for the pic to better see the components under. C20 i only used solder from the top side as i had oversized caps for that value and had normal sized ones on the way so i wanted it easier to replace. C20 is actually part of the hoof circuit, which has no issues as all.

    SOLVED War scythe (hoof reaper) octave squeal

    Update - if I only turn on the octave it sounds like there is a faint, high pitched oscillation or noose in the background and is faint. This is what gets amplified when fuzz is turned on. I have used an audio probe but cant seem to find the root cause. Anyone ever experience this on this build...

    War Scythe, minor issues but great fuzz

    Did you ever figure this out. Just finished my build and having the exact same issue. Octave is a bit weak with an odd high pitch hum. If i hit one of the fuzzes it is a massive squeal

    SOLVED War scythe (hoof reaper) octave squeal

    Hey all - ive seen some people with octave fuzzes and squeal issues in the past but cant seem to find any resolutions. Just finished the build, both fuzzes sound great but if i engage the octave with a fuzz on - it just screams at me. Even without a guitar plugged in just a brutal high pitch...
