    Repair Boss power supply cable

    I did what I couldn't do for years. I used a pliers for the screws, and I open the PSU up! :oops: So I have to decided how I can fix it. I could cut the wire, remove necessarily the strain relief, and resolder the wires again, isolating the soldering with some heatshrink tube. Unfortunately...

    Repair Boss power supply cable

    Hello guys. I have this old Boss power supply. It's been very good for years to supply in an easily way some pedals in daisy chain without any issue. But the cable is damaged, now. Any idea or trick about how I can to repair it? I cant open up the chassis because the uncommon hexagonal screws...

    Switching for Pickup Simulator Pedal

    Is it just me or in the schematic above C1 cap should be in series with the Tone pot across the ground to work like the one in the guitars? Now those are in parallel, I think the tone pot will work like a volume pot.

    Switching for Pickup Simulator Pedal

    Why that design for the tone pot? That is not the classic guitar tone control.

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    Meanwhile, I ordered a TPA3118 board. I really hope I won't leave it useless!

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    My pedal power supply 1-Spot doesn't have the earth ground, so for the TPA3118 I need a PSU with earth ground, but I can't go over this, the cheaper PSU 24v I can find on Amazon (Italy) have Italian plug with no ground, or Schuko plug with no clue about ground connection. Perhaps more of them...

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    My 1-Spot has an Italian plug without the central pin, so no earth ground. I see a lot of PSU 24v with Italian plug with no earth ground. But I could prefer a PSU with German plug, pretty common in Italy, that has the two lateral "tabs" that do the earth ground. Am I right?

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    I never had a 5A diode, but I found on Musikding web site this one: SB560. About the ground loops, you mean that I could have problem if I use the TPA3118 amp, power up with an Amazon 19-24v, with my pedalboard? Now I have just a 1-Spot as PSU, and my pedals are in daisy chain. P.S. about the...

    TPA3118 60W Power Amp Module

    I have to buy a TPA3118 (the first one was a fake and I didn't try it!) but I still have any power supply 19/24v, and I don't know if or what I have to buy. I afraid about noise, of course.

    The heck is going on inside Jam Pedals Eureka?

    I want to add a pair of gutshots. One of the transistor is a BC107. And... Edito: There is more gutshot in this video:

    Adding a mid boost to chauffeur drive?

    I'm looking at the schematic of the Chauffeur Drive. I link it: https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/Chauffeur-PedalPCB.pdf I never build it. But maybe you could try to put a 50k or a 100k pot in serie to the R5 22k. I'm experimenting something with emulatore, but you should try it somehow to see...

    That4305 issues

    A few of years ago I got (by Musikding) this defective module twice in a row. The pedal worked with the third module.

    My second Muzzle is worse than the first?

    Musikding sent me two new THAT4301 retrofit, before got it works fine. I'm not sure how, but I guess I got two failed chip. Then I wasn't sure if this new pedal worked so fine as my first Muzzle, but my friend was happy about it, and he tried the first one because it was for another friend we know.

    Boss DS-1 diy works wrong

    About mods... I really can't find the "trem mod". It appears in the Devi Ever forum, and I guess it connects two points in the circuit to get a sort o pulsing/tremolo effect, but I can't find the original image nor any description about it. Probably I will not include it in my building (never...
