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

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...

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?

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...

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.

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

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...

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

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.

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...

What mods? All! I really getting fun with that, I'm still trying everything and I will include just the ones I like more, considering the space using a 1590BB enclosure. The mods I like now are: - Clipping: stock, LED, and asymmetric two LED and a silicon diode; - Mid boost: a pot in series of a...

Thanks for the suggestion. I just inserted an NJM2904 in my Tayda's cart!

I solved the issue moving the positive side of the diodes before the first op-amp stage from the feedback loop of that op-amp. (THe solution was in that link, indeed.) I still have a lot of volume, that is not a bad thing. The taper of the Distortion pot is not pretty identical to the original...

I'm reading that page, thanks. My issue could be something about it. So I guess the problem maybe is something about the IC, even if I can't understand how other guys built it with satisfaction. I'll try to solve it.

Hello, I'm building a Boss DS-1 replica with a lot of mods and fetures, just for fun. I built it on veroboard layout from here: https://tagboardeffects.blogspot.com/2014/10/boss-ds-1-distortion.html Schematic: I started from the stock project, with just a mod: I moved the jumper between pin 1...
