Not sure if these are best practice, but my workflow is something like this: 1. Draw the schematic. 2. Draw a board template. I find it easier to do this with a rectangle, in case i want to alter the dimensions of the board easily during the layout process. Then I place the proper board over...

If you search Reddit, you will find PDFs pretty easily.

Looks nice mate, solid work.

I started on stranded, moved to solid-core, and have recently ordered more stranded after snapping some footswitch wiring on my last build. I think I will probably use a mix in the future, depending on what I'm trying to do with it.

My wife doesn't love the sound of the multimeter indicating continuity after a certain time of night either 😂

This answers all of my questions about printing on black sand. Definitely going to try it out. Great looking pedal mate!

Hi folks, I'm in between projects as I wait for parts to arrive, so I'm thinking through another project on my list. I'm a teacher at a high school. The students at my school who play guitar are all talented but are also limited by lack of quality effects. They have generic school amps (Fender...

Awesome, that's the exact one I was looking at but wasn't sure of the suitability for the application.

Having recently scoured the internet for an appropriate wah case for a specific application (I failed and am going to just make do with what's available) there is definitely a market out there for a wah layout that combines normal wah operation with the Morley rectangular layout and extra...

That COMP control sounds perfectly cromulent.

Honestly glad you said this and not @Paradox916 - has entirely different connotations once aliens become involved 😲

Moar progress! EARL board laid out and routed. It might not be the prettiest and is by no means perfect, but this is about the 5th go I've had at laying out this PCB and by far the best job I've done of it. Fingers crossed it passes the testing phase. Next step is a final BOM and then ordering...

🤦‍♂️😂 Thanks for noticing that haha. I suggested a normal Hammond box with an expression pedal but it's not what is wanted by the client. I am not thinking of live adjustment for the boost during a gig. It is set and forget, with only the main bypass being operated during their performance...

Thanks for sharing that link! I'm already working on the Eric Archer Resonant LPF circuit, but I'll give the ladder filter circuit a spin if I can't get the sound I want from the EARL.

And now I've got that done: Nice little board that, easy to route too 😅 Should I have put some filtering in the power section? I have it in most of my schematics but I didn't think to add it to this one. Edit: Don't think that's the right package for a 220N box cap, I will update it.

Catalinbread SPP schematic (made from Mosfet boost schematic with two value changes): Going to sort out a PCB layout next.

Thanks @Feral Feline for these ideas. I'm concerned about the potential for extra dirt from the LPB-1. I will have a rummage for the Catalinbread SPP schematic and see whether that's an option instead. The reason I've placed Boost last is my concern about the potential lack of headroom in the...

I've made some progress with this project lately. I'm going to try a Liantronic wah enclosure, I think they might be the same ones Smallbear had in stock previously. It looks like you can purchase individual units straight from the factory so I'm going to give it a go. Unfortunately, they won't...
