    My 1st Finished PedalPCB Build—Disarray Distortion—Only SQUEALS!

    Just as a follow-up to the above, my second Dissaray build may have one small issue (there’s another thread about it) but it actually sounds amazing and functions perfectly otherwise. Still no clear idea what went wrong on this first one, but I guess there’s hope for me yet.

    Disarray “Recharged” - Is Blue LED Supposed to Light Up?

    Hey so I just finished this build and it sounds KILLER: really, really happy with how this sounds. Top switch positions sounds perhaps a bit more “compressed and modern” albuit quieter with a smooth top end, middle position much like an Agry Charles with (lots) more gain on tap. That said...

    Randall RRED...PLEASE!

    SO cool...can’t thank you enough for making this a reality.

    Angry Charles - 100k Treble Potentiometer Issue

    @Chuck D. Bones here finally are some pics of my Angry Charles where I pulled it out of my 2RU enclosure and pulled all the cables out of the way so you can see the components, as well as the soldering work on the backside. Also some closeup pics of where the cables for the B100 treble pot leave...

    Angry Charles - 100k Treble Potentiometer Issue

    Thank you for that clear and damned interesting explanation. Haven't had a chance to get in there to inspect things and take better pics yet, but will do so very soon.

    Angry Charles - 100k Treble Potentiometer Issue

    Chuck can you explain the term "stray coupling" to me? Not sure I get what that means. As to your other question, yes the treble seems to increase for the first 90% although it seems less of an aggresive increase in treble than I'd expect. But yes you do hear the treble gradually increase and...

    Angry Charles - 100k Treble Potentiometer Issue

    Good question...well, the before/after signal chain is actually NOTHING, technically-speaking: As-mentioned I have this housed in an 2RU enclosure with other pedals (probably why you're asking), but they are all completely electronically independent from each other (aside from ground of...

    Angry Charles: General Component Questions

    I have a separate thread just started on my Angry Charles build trying to suss out one issue, but apart from that I had two general newb-ish questions for @PedalPCB on component choices: I own a "real" Angry Charlie, and I notice that while the PedalPCB Angry Charles spec's the 3mm red LEDs, my...

    Angry Charles - 100k Treble Potentiometer Issue

    Hi Gang, So I just finished an Angry Charles build and it's generally great-sounding and really quiet, but I am having one weird issue: with the 100k treble pot, once I turn it up past about 90% of a full rotation, it basically "mutes" the whole circuit—everything just drops out and the red...

    Rockman X100 in pedal format?

    Just discovered this thread. Yep, Dunlop owns the Scholz circuit patents now, and they are notoriously tight-fisted about releasing the schematics, so it's cool that you guys seem to have already figured out the X100 PCB. This might be a little bit of a hard segue, but I own one of the original...

    Damn, that is AWESOME!

    Randall RRED...PLEASE!

    I have literally no idea how long new PCBs that people request take to “germinate”, but I was just checkin’ back in to see if this was stil something you’re planning to, or already working on!

    My 1st Finished PedalPCB Build—Disarray Distortion—Only SQUEALS!

    You know, I NEVER DID figure this out, even after following all the suggestions above. I'm basically chalking this one up as a total loss at this point. This Disarray was my very first PedalPCB build, and after this one, given all the stuff I've learned elsewhere on this message...

    Dwarven Hammer: Potentiometers Working in Reverse...

    That was fast...yeah I was hoping that was the deal. Just thought I'd ask before I dug in there and did something stupid.

    Dwarven Hammer: Potentiometers Working in Reverse...

    Just finished my first successful PedalPCB build, and ye Dwarven Hammer sounds mighty indeed. One MINOR glitch... The title says it all: full counterclockwise on the pots=max overdrive, max volume, max treble boost. The pots on my version are not the PCB-mount kind, they're the "freestanding"...

    How to skip the 3PDT and wire for “always on”?

    THAT'S TOO EASY! So if I do that, and still wire the LED into the proscribed holes at the rear of the PCB, the LED will still light up properly, right? Only it will ALWAYS be lit up...

    How to skip the 3PDT and wire for “always on”?

    Hi folks, So I’m in the midst of a project involving the mounting of a few different pedalpcb circuits into a 2U rackmount enclosure. Whether they are in or out of my signal chain will be handled entirely by my voodoo labs hex switcher. This being the case, any kind of 3PDT switch really...

    Need Help Identifying Connector Type...

    Just to follow up/close out this thread with a win, the right move ended up being to purchase the cable I needed as a custom order directly from the SamTec site. This is my guy... https://www.samtec.com/products/fmtp-09-t-08.77-01-f-n
