I figured out it was due to another PCB company's (not PedalPCB) 3PDT breakout board. Lesson learned.

I built several Paragon Mini pedals, and in one of them, the LED lights are on but dim when the pedal is plugged in. The sound is just fine, but when off, both LED's are dimly lit. Is there something I should check out, or would this be considered within "normal" limits?

These are great suggestions! Thank you! What effect would changing the potentiometer values/taper have? I guess I'm just looking for as many options to tweak as possible.

Is there a way to reduce the amount of treble in the Depot Fuzz pedal? Even when messing with the treble pot, it still seems very treble heavy. Any suggestions?

I have an issue with the Captain Bit where when you turn up the "Up" and "Base" Pots, there is a lot of static, so much that it's not audible what's being played. I've done some troubleshooting, and I think it might be the transformer. How would I be able to tell if it's bad?

Maybe here's another way to question this - is there a way to "soften" the cut? There's definitely a sweet spot, but it would be nice if there was a way to lengthen that sweet spot.

Would anyone have a reason why there would be an audible pop of the the beginning of the notes when it hits the threshold on the Muffler Noise Gate? I'm using a bass guitar if that makes a difference.

I think I figured this out. When I pulled from my pedal chain and tested, I didn't have any issues, so I put it back (I have an isolated power supply) and used one of the jacks with a higher current (350 mA vs 150 mA), that seemed to do the trick.

I've been using the delegate boneyard for a bit, and I have a weird issue. When I turn it off with the footswitch, after I turn it back on I get no sound. While it's on, if I remove power and plug it back in, it works again. Any suggestions as to what might be causing this weird issue?

FWIW, both of these mods are great! I was able to tweak the trim pot, and that helped too.

I did use the 3207 set, so 9v it is for me! I'll look at both of these mods. Appreciate the fast responses!

Are there any mods I can do (swapping Caps, etc.) to make the cepheid chorus more bass-friendly? Higher on the fretboard sounds great, but lower starts to clip a little bit. Or is that something in my build that's not expected?
