interesting board design

You can also use higher power reading glasses when soldering. 4X is good for me most of the time but I have a 6X pair that I use when troubleshooting something.

thanks for those links!

ouch.

How large was your order? Asking in case there was a dollar threshold that may have triggered assessing the extra tariffs.

First thing, you might want to try putting a higher level signal into the pedal to see if you like the additional distortion you could get, but you still have plenty of ways to tweak the pedal to suit your ears. No reason not to dial down the trim on one or more of the pots if you are looking...

looks like the two boards are part of one larger fabricated board and they come as a set that includes the footswitch pcb too. that makes it unlikely there are any spare "singles" in inventory. but if you order a new board they you will have a spare for the other two boards. on a related...

thanks for sharing the video. the 3-in and 3-out PPCB boards would do the same thing, except that you can then have 3 channels in parallel to play with. and of course you can have more than one effect in line for each channels if you want to do so. Not as much mix-and-match craziness like...

Found this is a review: FX Engineering RAF Mirage: This pedal is handmade by a very small boutique brand. It aims for transparency in tone and action, and it hits the mark quite well. It reminds me of an optical design, though I don't know for a fact what type of circuit it is since the innards...

-- or for some of us, like you are hanging out with your older brother (if not your dad) : ^ )

I really like the conversational delivery on these videos. Really fun to watch.

post a pic of the solder side of your PCB if you are still trying to get this to work.

Danny Gatton was a master at controlling volume with his little finger while playing with virtuoso skill.

agreed it might be easier, but maybe doing the project to find out is the goal. it is one of those "to each his own" kind of things.

sounds like an interesting project. keep us posted and pic'd with photos of your progress.
