Hello. Which ldr’s should I buy.? There are three models. Thanks.

Thanks man. I’ll try that mod. However I won’t use a vero board. I’ll use the bass pot to solder the resistors and the extra cap.

I’ll check that one. Thanks.

I do have one. I’ll measure but I know for sure it was the charge pump because replacing the pump solved the problem.

Hello everybody. Blessings to all. I just built a king midas and sounds pretty good. I had a whistling noise that resulted to be the charge pump. I had a 7660s cpaz. Replaced it with a lt1054 pin 1 bended and problem solved. I think that the 7660s I got is poor quality. I’m trying to find new...

Tried a max1044 and same whistling. I guess I’ll get some more lt1054 because that was my last haha!

Thanks man. What you said made me decide to try an lt1054 I had. Bended pin 1 and tried it and whistle gone. Seems like a poor quality 7660s. It doesn’t say icl it says cpaz.

Yes it is a 7660s. And yes whistles all the time when the pedal is at usable levels. When pots are low it stops but when is stops the vol and tone levels are useless. The pedal sounds great when dialed but when you are not playing the whistling is loud.

Actually yes. I did try that one. Heard it a little clearer but also a little lower gain and vol at same levels on the pots but the differences were very subtle. Both sound great. I wish I could get rid of the whistling noise.

Hello. New on this forum. I finished building a king midas. To my liking sounds great on the low setting with the bat46 diodes. Replaced the clipping leds for 1n914 diodes because to my liking the clippind voltage was too high with the leds and the signal too strond. Like it more with the 914s...
