Late to the party. I breadboarded the BMP while waiting for Robert's Fuzz Muffin PCB. I started with the "Mask Us" version from the build doc. I think that's more or less a BMP V3. Lots of gain, but not very tight in the bottom end. Didn't like it. Then I tried "Stomp 75" from build doc. So...

Hi Paul, hi all, Sorry for the necro post :) Last entry in here happened even before Corona I reckon. I tried the measurement circuit for the JFET you posted (2 x 10k, 1 x 1M, JFET, DC@9.18V). I tested the two JFETs I used in my ADHD breadboard circuit. All Vp and Idss measurements done on my...

Regarding 3-way toggle I think you should be fine if you don't use the middle position.

I think you have your ground pads on the top side of the PCB connected to your jack tips instead of the sleeves.

Nice build! I have an ET in my loop switcher, I like it for my cleans. I built the General Tso, too, but I prefer the ET. Tso doesn't have much squish. Not even half of the ET. :p

Sorry for necro post. But I was looking for hints like this so I was glad I found it. Although in the pic above some stuff seems disconnected. For instance the 2nd component from the left, 1uf, it's just connected to input resistor and then to ground via another resistor. It doesn't go into...

@jimilee mentioned the same issues soldering ground connections here. Just saying :)

40W? Mine has 11W :D JBC 14ST 420 degrees Celsius vs 340.

Thank you @owlexifry for the demo! Nicely played :) Made me want to try this pedal instantly. I had never heard of the pedal before. Was this hard to solder for you? For me soldering all the grounds was hard. As if these holes were connected to one massive ground plane that sucked most of the...

The rest looks fine. I'd just go and get some isopropyl alcohol and carefully use a brush to remove the flux residue without the alcohol getting into the pots. Double-check the solder points to make sure there are no bridges.

You seem to have the cables to the input and output jacks reversed. Ground seems connected to the jack tips.

Hi all, Just a cautionary tale. I built the Tso last weekend and I had two XVIVE vactrols that I had ordered for the build. I plugged the LED side of the vactrols in my tester. One of them measured like my green (non-clear) LEDs, fine. The other measured differently every time I hit the test...

Hi all! Just finished my FV-1 devel board. Plugged it in, worked fine right off the bat. Dumping and writing EEPROMs works, no problem. Thank you Robert for the PCB and everything and the quick delivery!!! Kind regards, Seb

R50 is the resistor for the power LED. Default is 4k7. You can raise it to bring down the brightness. Maybe just try different resistors with a battery and another blue LED if you have that lying around. I think 20k should do it. Regarding short mode. You should be able to clearly hear the...

Thanks Robert! Does the Modulated patch use randomization? In any case, I tried a few commercial digital pedals in the past and the only one I really like is my Whammy. And now I have two digital pedals I really like :) Even crazier is that the Unison after my Whammy makes the Whammy sound...
