Any One Keep Logbooks of Their Pedal Settings and /or builds?

I do. 3 ring binders for all my printed pedal build docs. and spiral notebooks with my pedal chains and settings. I also have notebooks with my likes and dislikes about all my builds. and a few more notebooks on each pedals horoscopes. how else would I know whos gonna get a long with who? It gives me that edge over others and there trains and now I've shared it with all of you. Your pedals b-day and time it breathes electricity for the first time is all you need you proud builder of pedals.

Your welcome people of earth your welcome.

Yup! If I like a pedal enough, I make a template sheet for it, and it goes in my binder. I really like seeing what I liked at some prior point, etc., and with all the notes in one place, it’s easy to find.

I keep journals about guitar maintenance and string preferences, and about amp maintenance; (among other interests that I journal)—but it’s never occurred to me to do a pedal building journal; perhaps, given how obsessed I can get at times, this is a good thing. But I just decided that I will start jotting “non settings” notes on the backs of the template pages, which since they’re hand written, will stay brief.

I'm close to the same when it comes to building pedals, I use a notes program to keep track of what I liked about a pedal or disliked about building it. As far as actually keeping track of settings, once I dial something in I'll take a picture of it with my phone and push it to the cloud. So if anyone hacks my accounts, you're just gonna see a bunch of pedal settings .
