    SOLVED Duo Phase LEDs on full no change

    For the sake of posterity and avoidance of future builder frustrations: Well, I did me a troubleshoot. Finished this duophase after being away and plugged it in with anticipation, but no. First, both LEDs were on, no sound except for strangled braps of distorted signal. Did I want to...

    HYDRA Delay, is it supposed to do that??

    I think it's correct. head 1: dadadadada head 2: da. da. da. da head 3: da.. da.. da.. da.. head 4: da... da... da... head 1&2: dada da dadada da something like that. is the issue that 1&2 sound the same as 3&4 to you? [edit: sorry, had to use periods as the forum engine wouldn't respect my...

    HYDRA Delay, is it supposed to do that??

    What do you mean by phantom pause? Do you mean the rhythmic nature of the delay? I'm pretty sure that's intentional. Mine does it. The heads all do repeats at slightly different speeds, so when you combine them, it creates a rhythm because of gaps and overlaps Kind of like Steve Reich...

    SOLVED quick question pcb mount 9v barrel jacks

    This was it after all. I think when I tried reversing it, I was holding the board in a way to short the chip so it didn't make any sound. Duh! I looked at the traces on the drones board that was working, and sure enough, the positive went to the cathode/band side and the negative to the anode...

    SOLVED quick question pcb mount 9v barrel jacks

    I couldn't access your link, by the way. continuity: square pad does connect to the anode end of the 4001 diode, ground to the cathode/stripe end. Everything current flow seems as it should, but I still get ticking and no signal. It's a good idea to do a voltage probe to see if in fact I'm...

    SOLVED quick question pcb mount 9v barrel jacks

    Built the Moonn "Cyberpunk Touch" and "Drone a Little Drone", but forgot to order pcb mount barrel jacks. So, I just soldered in some wires from a regular 9v enclosure jack to the PCB jack pads, ground to the round pad in front, and hot to the square pad in back. Didn't bother with the switch...

    PCBGuitarMania Lemon Bass

    Maybe not a scam, maybe just incompetence. Check out the facebook video I posted in a discussion. He does seem fairly earnest and remorseful. I don't know what precipitated a crisis in his world, but it seems like there is one. Maybe bad reviews threatening his multi-million cents PCBs...

    Space is Fun Reverb (Moonn)

    The Moonn Space is Fun? Yes indeed. Works as intended. Not particularly fussy. I have Drykill and feedback on footswitch. One thing to note is that Moonn often inverts the order of the in/out pads to what we are usually used to. Can't remember if Space is Fun does that or if that would...

    Help: Sunn Beta Preamp Mid-Freq Mod

    there's always equalizer pedals you can run in tandem with the Sunn to boost specific mids, or things like the acrobat and harmonic energizer that you could rock with as well. You might just put everything in one enclosure and call it a day.
