    Worst Cover Songs Of All Time

    Glennifer can’t stay out of his own way. I’m pretty sure he produced that Elvis album himself the same way he insisted on producing that Verotika movie. Not “so bad it’s good”, just aggressively mediocre He’s done this thing for years where he pulls his own mic away during the last syllable of...

    Are you building or are you playing?

    All I wanted to do was clone a f*king Darkglass Omicron. Fast forward a year, give or take, and now I’m 14 pcbs deep, reading articles and books where I’m forgetting things quicker than I can learn them. I bit the bullet and re-bought an omicron which is in the mailbox right now. Gonna shelve...

    SO-8 to DIP8 Adapter Pin access points

    So I recently purchased a few of these adapters for smd ics, however only one of the boards (circled in red) has an exposed eyelet for one of the pins Is there a safe way to “punch out” these pin holes without damaging the boards or am I overthinking this? I need access to pins 4 and 8 for...

    What's on the workbench?

    I imagine you’re up to your neck in builds but from what I remember reading on the Darkglass Omicron it’s (supposedly) emulating a Blackstone MOSFET into a Boss ODB-3, Jon Stockman’s bread and butter for a while I’d love to know what the two distortion circuits look like in the omicron, as I no...

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    Or better yet… Would love to build a plate though.

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    Thanks for the insight! I feel more comfortable with the Optocoupler I had chosen now. The main reason I was looking for ducking was for the placement shown in this short: I used to own a Light Pedal and I used it very much like the above demo, albeit before distortion pedals instead of an...

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    Oh sweet! Tayda sells this photoresistor with the same specs!

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    I had to go down the rabbit hole to replace that part but I THINK I can use a GL5516 from the pedalpcb store in series with a resistor (5-7k ish) to get to the right “light” resistance. I haven’t received my pcb either, and this photo-resistor is the only problem part for my large queue of...

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    I think mine shipped earlier this week so I’ll see what I can do! You’re correct, no drill template, but I really like it when a circuit is described and explained at length via a blog post or documentation. I’m considering adding a “key input” so I can place the reverb wherever I like in the...

    Genuine spring reverb build recommendations?

    Disappearing Act Waiting on the materials for this to come in but what really set this one apart is the ducking capability. Uses an 800ohm tank if I’m not mistaken and the build documentation is VERY thorough

    AMT Legend R2 pedal or schematic?

    Interesting! Was the Vt2 schematic ever provided? Went through the thread and I may have missed it.

    Now Playing... What are you Listening to Right Now?

    That’s going on the Bandcamp Wishlist. Thanks! Artificial Brain was one of those bands that didn’t really click with me at the time. Gave them another go earlier this year and now I’m a rabid fan of all 3 albums. 10/10

    DEMO Electronic Audio Experiments Maestro Fuzzstain

    Been sitting on this pcb for a couple of weeks, thinking of doing the blend pot and LED clipping mods outlined in the build documents. Thanks for the demo!

    Joined a new band so I'm back to building! Help me choose a distortion circuit.

    BE-OD might be a good pick considering the presence and tight controls would be useful with those filtertrons

    Anyone had trouble with an order from Small Bear (SynthCube)?

    Reading this post had me nervously double-checking a recent (and first!) order from Smallbear but fortunately everything was there. It was a 7 SKU order with mainly ICs and some odds and ends. I’ve had good experiences with Amplified Parts so I’ll make a point of trying to order anything I can’t...
