Update on this: I ordered the resistor pack linked to above, I ordered the correctly shaped potentiometers, and I tried another build on the spare PCB that I ordered, and now everything is working perfectly and it sounds fucking great. Thanks to everyone for the help and support.

I really appreciate this actually so no worries about it being rough. Been working on this project on and off for months because I kept realizing I had bought the wrong parts or had to figure out how to do the next step but I think I've been avoiding having to just start from scratch, maybe just...

Bumping this again because I'm still at a loss, should I be providing any other information?

Hello, still struggling with this and not sure where to start with figuring out a fix. Any advice would be very greatly appreciated :')

Hello all, I recently posted about this same pedal, but I'm making a new thread because I'm having a different issue with it. I recently got it fully assembled, but when the Distortion circuit is engaged the sound reduces in volume significantly, and crackles and pops. If I play a note hard...

I'm sort of asking a different question at this point, so I might mark this as solved and open a new thread.

Okay managed to swap those pins for the moment by sticking them on a breadboard and running wires to the sockets, and I am now getting sound with Distortion engaged, but something is still wrong. Hard to describe exactly what, so I'll include a video, but it sounds crackley and poppy. There's...

Just found another thread that had some issues with the pedal, and realised that they also swapped the PF5102s for J176s. I did the same without realizing that the pinouts for the PF5102 are 1) Drain, 2) Source, 3) Gate, and the J176's are 1) Drain 2) Gate 3) Source (see screenshots of their...

Still some problems, but some success! I mixed up two of the wires on the Distortion switch, so I corrected that and I now have sound in bypass! The Boost circuit works, but now toggling Distortion on cuts all of the sound. Also it doesn't sound like the Octave circuit is doing anything. Any...

Not silly at all, that's what I did wrong the first time. Got it mixed up flipping the board over. But that doesn't seem to be source of the problem, so I'll double check the wiring on the jacks, thanks. EDIT: Just realized you meant the jacks look to be wired correctly, but that the Distortion...

Hello all, I've just finished my first PedalPCB build after significant trials and frustrations. Had to do many different Tayda orders but learned a lot about parts in the process! As I was expecting might be the case, I've just finished soldering together the Parentheses Fuzz, and I'm not...
