Not with my experience. It is not noisy at all. Been using the Fender amp sim on stage since last year and it work very good until now. My set up is dirt pedals, compressor on the input. Modulation, delay, reverb pedals are on the send and return. I am using a cheap china made 500mA dc power...

Nice build. I am thinking of the same as my next trio project. Mine is also a trio combo minus the decals: JHS Glory Hole, 1981 DRV, and Soldano Lead Solder.

The oscillation has nothing to do with the input/output cable whether you use shielded one. In my experience was the oscillation was cause by the feedback loop resistor on the gain section. Just make sure the resistor (R10= 1meg) is good and properly soldered. This also goes to the 100pf...

I would like to share my build experience of this pedal. First, i am sorry to hear that those who build this project might have similar experiences about the oscillation. Let me assure that this circuit is good nothing wrong with how it was designed by the Pedalpcb team. So let me tell the myth...

I never tried it with battery. But i supposed the sound is more cleaner with battery (fresh one).

Just want to share what i observed (discovered) with the Lead Solder. During my initial testing of the board (not encase yet), I also had the noise and oscillation on the pedal. Then I tried one of the suggestions here about changing R10 to 510K and C9 TO 220pf, well it helped at some point in...

Just want to share this satisfying project. If you want to hear sample videos of the Lead solder OD, visit the DIY Guitar pedal page. Finally, this will be my main gain pedal for my worship rig. It will definitely replaces all my existing single gain pedals on my pedal board. Of the three, my...

To my ears, yes the LED is transparent and rounder yet I noticed it less forgiving under my fingers especially on soloing since i use legato a lot. If i'm into a more picking on solo it should work fine (like YJM). Also, it can be bit ice picky on most amps too that can sound transparent. This...

It has something to do with trimpot adjustment. I also had the same experienced hearing that compressed sound (somewhat overdriven) sound. Tune by ear, back it off a bit (counter clockwise) while listening back and forth between the bypass sound and while it is on. I suggest use the single coil...

It could be an issue with your transistors pin orientation. On the XC phase I built, I noticed also what you mentioned here. But since I used transistor socket for those transistors so I could experiment. Initially I used 2N5458, then 2N5457. They had different response and orientation also. I...

Well for sure having a reference voltage would get to the ballpark of what the phase should be. But since I didn't measure the voltage, I just used my ear. Even my friend was impressed by it. Together with the CE2 that i built also for him, he will use the phaser on his vintage Fender rhodes

I tuned it by ear. I just tossed listening between listening the bypass and while effect is on. And so far what I heard was impressive. I can hear the quality clean tone of my Dimarzio pickups while blending with the the phasing. I thought, you will get somewhat and non effecting sound until you...

I bought recently from stompboxparts.com. Sadly, since I built an Xphase for a friend, I got 4 only. After hearing the pedal with the 2N5952 in comparison with 2N5457, I felt guilty. I should have bought more =(. Stompbox sell the 2n5952 for 4$ for 2pcs. Now it is out of stock and some seller...

I checked the legs of the op amp meant for 833 and they are seated well. Actually i used NE5532P, but i tried also an LM833 the one used on my Angry Andy plus and it was working. I believed the LM833 and TL072 are op amp that give the sound to the circuit. Even without the PT2399 the circuit...

Hi @homebrewtj, thank you for your reply. I was sure i used 1nf on C8 during the building of the project. i can get very good audio sound in effect position except that there is no delay sound coming out. I tested the PT2239 that i used on my other project (sea horse, the one on the right...
