    Powersound Overdriver Colorsound Help

    Standard 3pdt on/off footswitch and the pedalpcb true bypass pcb. I used an audio probe to test things and the input from the input jack has sound but the pad going to the output jack has zero signal. This is when in bypass. This makes no sense to me? The footswitch pcb is soldered on really...

    Powersound Overdriver Colorsound Help

    When engaged the volume is really quiet. Bypass doesn’t seem to work at all. Did I miss anything obvious? I used 2n5088 transistors instead of BC109 as I read they were a modern equivalent. Would that cause a problem or did I put them in backwards? The only other difference from the build...

    Barry you got it! It's alive now! Thanks so much! Just needed the JFET's biased. This biasing instruction should really be included in the build documents. Thanks again

    Missed that! thanks Barry. Do you know which legs of the JFET to check the resistance on Q1?

    Also, these are the J201's I used. I'm pretty new to building and didn't see that eBay transistors could be fake or lower quality before using these. Would they be causing issues? Shouldn't stop it from working completely should they...

    No I haven't. I didn't see anything about that in the build docs. Am I supposed to with this build?

    This is my second pedalpcb build and second that doesn’t work after completion. Very frustrating :/ Bypass works. LED works when engaged. Zero sound coming through. The only thing I did differently from the spec sheet is use 12K resistors instead of 10K because I didn’t have any on hand. But...

    SOLVED Pauper Build Help

    Howdy, this is my first pedalpcb build and one of my first pedal builds in general. I just finished putting together the Pauper (Prince of Tone) and it doesn’t work. Bypass works. When engaged it makes a loud screech that changes frequency when adjusting the gain knob. The LED does not turn on...
