Thanks so much!

Not to hijack, but would anyone from this thread mind looking at my PCB in kicad and let me know if it looks right before I order some boards?

Thanks for the help. The issue was indeed the PCB because the schematic I gave them was wrong to begin with. And the circuit worked and sounded great until it hit that extra ground connection. I’m not sure what the going rate is for someone to design a PCB but I don’t feel ripped off in the...

Hey folks. I had a PCB designed by someone on Fiverr last year and just got around to building the pedal and I’m having trouble with it. I’m losing signal close to the end of the circuit an I’ve triple checked my build and reflowed all my solder joints. I’ve also verified the off board wiring...

I sent them to you directly. :)

PCB-mounted!

Thanks, Robert! Sadly the issue I'm having is I have no idea how to decipher where those drill holes should go, or how to measure them down to the millimeter. At this point I'm considering building one of the boards, spreading some play-doh on the face of an enclosure, and then pressing the...

Hi, folks. I've got my first run of PCB's fabricated for a new pedal that will go in 125B enclosures. I want to submit a drill template for a quote from Obscura Mfg to have the enclosures drilled, painted and printed. But I'm totally lost on how to make one; let alone one that adheres to their...

I'll get a pic of the boxes for you, Feral. Beyond that, I now have the first 100 PCB's made and ready to go...

No, I didn't. I bought a pre-measured set of transistors from Smallbear a few years ago and they sat around for quite a while before I got around to building this board. Do the photos of the transistor tester readings in my first post not have the information you're looking for?

Great stuff, folks. Thank you for sharing. After reaching out to several shops in my state that I thought did PCB fabrication I got several replies telling me they farm out their actual board-making but would be happy to quote me fully assembled boards. Since wiring everything myself is part of...

Do these settings for the main board look okay? I'd like my boards to be on par with PedalPCB's in terms of quality. Do I need Lead-Free if I intend to ship some of the pedals to Europe? Thanks so much for your insight.

Boy did I pick a great time to finally have a PCB design to print. I'm looking at 50 to 100 main boards and just as many 3PDT breakout boards. All through-hole, unpopulated and I'm wondering what the best option will be. There's actually a fabricator an hour from where I live so I'm going to...

I don't have any trim pots in stock, so while I wait for those I'm going to try a regular pot.

Copy that. Gonna try it as soon as I get off work.
