    Missing OCD cap, oh no!

    Correct, and C8 on my OCD is on the underside, electrolyte type.

    Missing OCD cap, oh no!

    In mine (v1.7 2015) some caps were soldered at the other side of the pcb

    Banzai disaster

    Update: Tracking information says it at the postal distribution center in Milan, Italy. Ready to be shipped to Germany.. Mail from banzai: something went wrong with the package.. So it travels over 1000km from Berlin to Milan, to be shipped back over 1000km again to Berlin and then to be...

    Banzai disaster

    Same experiences here. Order from begin July 2021 shows up end of August 2021. In-between in mail them, and they say it's in their shipping department, then they mail back it went to a wrong postoffice (?!?). I should have learned from that, but I ordered a few parts 5th off February 2022, same...

    Clandestine sqeals like a pig

    That's why the 1044 was a leftover I guess 😅 The clandestine works OK, but even with no voltage doubler IC installed it works.. Makes me wonder if something else is not working as it should. First ever pedalPCB which gave me a headscratch.. And I think it's pure user error and not to blame the...

    Clandestine sqeals like a pig

    Thnx, the ic came with the kit from Musikding, never had problems with parts of them not functioning. But no, it is a ltc1044 in it now. I believe I did a vero build of a klon a while back and the ltc1044 was a left over from that

    Clandestine sqeals like a pig

    This is the actual ic. I now have a lt1044 in it.. stopped the squeal, but the original tc1044s shouldn't be doing thisn right?

    Clandestine sqeals like a pig

    Build the clandestine preamp last night, and while testing it (not boxed yet), it emits a high oscillating pitch. This occurs in every setting even with the volume all the way off. Everything is correct regarding values, wiring and solderflow on the pads. Even tried the in/output wires with...

    Mach 1 / Powder blues

    Thank you! So if I would take a mach 1 Pcb build replace the 12k (r12) resistor with a 50k pot, the drive pot with a 1meg and make the 47n (c6) switchable with bigger values ( like 100uf or 220uf) in the way the bluespower dipswitch works, and add a couple diodes on a switch (glass/warm/edge)...

    Mach 1 / Powder blues

    I own both the originals, a Lightspeed and Blues Power, but always build a pedalPCB version just to compare. ( and even have sold some originals because my builds did better 😅) Difference in sounds is always minimal between the originals vs the pedalpcb's. Dialling in the Blues Power I heard a...

    Duocast enclosure depth

    Hey Phil, I used these: https://www.musikding.de/Marconi-style-black When I fit knobs I always take 2 plectrums and stack them underneath the knobs so I have the same height on all knobs and then tighten them. If the holes of the knobs are too deep for the potshafts, I sometimes take a...

    Duocast enclosure depth

    I build it in a 1590bb standard. Fits perfectly.

    I'm prepared for only a PCB if necessary 😅

    Powder Blue Overdrive

    I'm waiting patiently for these to hit the musikding store.. Are they shipping to Klaus yet?

    This is why I don't trace circuits from photos

    So it's a Monarchical Sound Azure Strength pedal confirmed? Will it be compact or the same size as the original? I am quite stoked on this one!

    Is it just me or is the Simulcast kinda bright?

    I build the comparable duocast and tried every transistor I could find in my parts drawers. Had 2 favourite: AC188 and a GC511. Never noticed it to be too bright though. So maybe higher gain transistors help to tame high end?

    Where's thr Cornerstone Gladio's at?

    What happened to the Gladio post? There were some gutshots in that thread but the whole thread is gone now?

    Low gain fuzzes

    I recently acquired a Tarpit by Greer. It's a take on the v4/5 op-amp muff, but I found it to be great with low gain settings. The tone pot it seems has a bigger range than most muffs. It can do gated/broken sounds with the gain on 0 and all the way to Billy Corganish at max gain. I set the gain...
