    Mirage Tremolo - Tube Tremolo Project

    I usually use this one: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/mini-toggle-switch-spdt-on-none-on.html You can use this one if you want to have more of the switch stick out, but it is more fiddly to hold in position to solder it in place...

    Steddi, Go! - simple tube D.I.

    Nearly everything I can get my hands on, when the time is right I won't delay even a second to build the last one I know about. ;):LOL::ROFLMAO: I can't help myself The urge is just too strong. Cheers Mick

    Steddi, Go! - simple tube D.I.

    C4 is only at whatever voltage you supply the pedal with, since you should keep it at or below 14V DC maximum you could even use a 16V cap there very safely so I see no problem with using a 25V cap.

    Tungsten Preamp - another weird D.I. thing

    There are some great calculators for tube circuits if you want to learn some more, https://www.ampbooks.com/mobile/amplifier-calculators/ I use them a lot because I like to understand what is happening on any pedal circuit that I build Cheers Mick

    King Nothing

    I downloaded the build docs for the King Nothing in January 2024 and the link is correct on my build doc, just to let you know.

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    The top of R4 should be connected to ground on the PCB, then it goes from the bottom of R4 to the two right hand side pins of the tube risers to the Tube PCB, from there it goes to the round negative pad of the LED itself, the positive leg of the LED goes to pin 5 of the tube which is the...

    C2C Electronics - Tayda Drill Templates

    On the C2CE website on the "Drill Templates And Artwork Files" page there is a link in the text up top that goes to an example of how to order boxes with drill and paint files from Tayda. https://c2celectronics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Tayda-Electronics-Enclosure-Service-Walkthrough.pdf...

    Wah Inductors. No hype. Just measurements.

    That would be perfect for what I am looking for, any chance I can have it ? Otherwise just a drawing would be great as well, I am used to making my own footprints in KiCad. Thanks Mick

    Wah Inductors. No hype. Just measurements.

    I have been looking for the footprint for wah inductors for a while and I can't seem to find any that I can use, I use KiCad to make circuit boards and I want to make some up to experiment with a tube driven wah. Is there any chance someone can drop some drawings of the inductors here ? Pin...

    C2C BassDude (Fender 5B6 Tweed Bassman Preamp)

    Nice build, it looks good and now I'm gonna have to try mine with a 12AT7 tube as well. The vents are there to show off the glowing tubes but are not really needed for ventilation since it is just the preamp section, not that much heat but I will always use vents anyway. I think he Bassdude is...

    Stuff you wanted to know but were afraid to ask

    I have used pin headers and sockets to separate the PCB's in some pedals I've made, I also use them to connect the stomp switch to the main PCB in my C2CE (Sushi Box) pedals as it seems like a nice distance to set the stomp switch in the box.

    Lab Rat Low Volume Output

    Just dusted of my 50year old CRO and with all knobs on 12 o'clock I had the same out as in, with the volume on full I more then doubled the output signal. I like my old CRO with a real cathode ray tube in it. edit: I just noticed all the dust at the bottom of the screen in the pic, it has been...

    Steddi, Go! - simple tube D.I.

    What are you trying to do ? C1 and the volume pot makes a HPF at 0.2Hz so that is as low as you would ever want it. I have no idea how to work out the HPF of C2 but usually we use a higher capacitance for a lower frequency, C2 is marked as 47uF in the build docs.

    Is a project like this possible? (please, correct or delete if not pertinent)

    The Wreckingball has a spare triode so it might be possible to use the spare triode for a clean channel similar to how the clean channel worked on the Supersonic. It would be a completely new workaround to fit all the extra bits on the PCB. The Bassdude also has a spare triode so on that one you...
