    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    Well I don't know where to go from here or what else to try ? Here are my results with the audio probe: Without a power supply: - The signal reaches input IC1.1 pin 3, after that, it is dead. With power supply, but footswitch not pressed: - The unwanted noise is generally much...

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    In Power off, I get no bypass sound at all in both footswitch positions. In Power on, I get a pretty bad bypass sound, but it is heavily distorted in footswitch on-position and a tiny bit also in off-position. Both with extreme noise in the background (much louder than the actual sound from the...

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    I wasn't 100% sure what exactly you wanted me to test. So measured with all IC's mounted and V_0 is ~6.85V as shown in the picture above. Then I measured with the TC1044 removed and the output is ~7V Then I measured with the TC1044, but the other three IC's removed and the output is ~7.1V This...

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    Everything is measured against GND I have no idea why it does what it does. In my opinion, the soldering of all the affected components looks fine. The possibly damaged circuit boards are also located completely elsewhere. I really don’t know what else I should try now.

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    Five hours later and unfortunately, I still haven’t made much progress. This is truly one of the most frustrating situations I’ve ever experienced. When you factor in the lost nerves and work time, I could have already bought at least two brand new Diezel pedals. But I digress. I’ve tried to...

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    Mhm. That could be it. I thought earlier something similar about this area. I might have destroyed the protective "layer" there and now my solder touches those traces as well, even though it shouldn't. How would you try to solve this ? De-solder everything in this area and put in on the other...

    It is the LED that you can see down there :) But you are right it almost seems like a short.

    Valhalla pedal doesn't work

    Hello everyone, I have problems getting the Valhalla Pedal Kit to work, and I don’t know what else I can try to fix it. I have some experience with circuit boards and electronic components, and I’ve successfully assembled a pedal kit in the past. However, I’ll admit my soldering skills are a...
