    Sunnyscopa Film-Free Laser Jet Waterslide Notes for New GW1-PRO Glue

    Yes, you have to set your printer to print the image as a mirror image (reversed). The side of the decal that the LaserJet prints on is the side that will go face down on the surface of the enclosure. With a normal waterslide decal the backing paper is on the underside of the decal when you...

    Uni-Vibe and Surprise Preamp (AionFX Straylight)

    Understood. Buying directly from Sunnyscopa makes the same 20-sheet pack twice the price I paid when buying from Amazon, because the shipping to the U.S. is as much as the actual decal paper itself. And that is before adding in whatever tariffs the US might have in effect when the order...

    Uni-Vibe and Surprise Preamp (AionFX Straylight)

    Hi – thank you for the kind words! I use the Sunnyscopa film-free decals for LaserJet printers. I normally buy it from Amazon (US) but Amazon is not currently offering this product so I will have to hope that it comes back in stock before I run out of my existing supply. However, it may not...

    Celsius preamp + Cepheid chorus?

    I’ve paired it in a build with a CE-1 clone (Lectric-FX Karaoke Chorus) and I’ve also paired with a CE-2 clone (AionFX Azure) manually by putting them together on a pedalboard, and both sounded great.

    Sunnyscopa Film-Free Laser Jet Waterslide Notes for New GW1-PRO Glue

    Hey, – I really appreciate this. I work with film free a lot and I noticed about a year ago that the glue was somewhat different in that it only took half the time to cure in the oven and any longer would cause something like – but not exactly like – the glue burning issue you had. The glue...

    Tayda UV printing - what counts as white?

    Back when I was doing Tayda UV prints, this is exactly the process I followed, except that I repeated steps 8 and 9 more times than are listed here. This is an excellent summary of the steps to a successful print job. M

    Tayda UV printing - what counts as white?

    This is an important point and bears some further explanation. Most printers that print on paper do not print white. If there is something pure white in your picture, what you are seeing is the white color of the paper with the color on top of it. But when you have an off-white and you print it...

    DC Jacks

    Are we talking about these (or the corresponding “innie” version)? If so, they still fit the standard PPCB top jack drill template – you just need to make the hole for the power jack about 13 mm. But you don’t need to move the input and output jack at all – everything still fits, even if you...

    What's on the workbench?

    Chastity Preamp? And with that, I am bereft of suggestions.

    Favorite 1590XX builds

    I would probably go with the Spacialist. It looks to just have a ton of different usable bread -and-butter reverbs. Just based on my experience with the Spirit Echo and certain other EQD pedals, I personally - for me – would shy away from a lot of the other reverbs in the shop because they...

    Favorite 1590XX builds

    I don’t. It didn’t turn out quite the way I expected (entirely my own fault for not knowing everything about what I was building). Specifically, I should’ve chosen a different reverb other than the Spirit Echo. On the Keeley, I believe it’s a fairly normal chamber reverb – however, the Spirit...

    Muroidea Build Report

    I ask because the font appears to be a different color than the rat graphic - are the control labels, etc. handwritten? If so, geez, I'm in awe.

    Well, dammit, I’m an idiot because I got the two confused but I’m gonna leave that post because the world needs more proof that I’m an idiot sometimes. How about these? 1. PPCB Unison Double Tracker and PPCB Spirit Echo, to try to replicate the double tracker and reverb functionalities of the...

    Two I have done are: XC Phase (Phase 90) and MadBean Current Lover (Electric Mistress Flanger) and Because I wanted the complete package of a Boss CE-1, including the preamp, but could not find a a board that had everything, I combined the PPCB Celsius Preamp (the CE-1 preamp) with a...

    Wah adjustment tips?

    I’d appreciate any guidance/tips on properly adjusting a wah pedal. I’ve seen a fair number of comments here that adjusting the travel of the pot in relation to the rack is essential for getting the best tone and performance, but I don’t believe I’ve actually seen any specific tips. Of course...

    Pedalpcb Vox Clyde McCoy

    I just finished building this and am really enjoying it, much more than my previous Tearjerker build. Definitely more subtle, vocal, and smooth than a Crybaby, and that better suits my style of playing. Thank you @Guardians of the analog! The only deviationI made was to use a Trimmit with a...

    Triad Distortion

    Well, I had never owned (or even played) a Rat. But given that it is such a foundational effect that had been used by artists I admire (including some unexpected candidates, like Peter Buck from REM) I decided I needed to build one. However, my journey to owning a Rat was fraught. Given that I...

    SOLVED Maybe an issue, maybe user error? Triad Distortion volume jump

    Good call! I completely brain-farted and didn’t even think about looking for YouTube demos. This video, right about 4:45 in, shows the demo guy being pretty surprised by the volume jump when he hits the switch. Thank you! I’ll mark this (non-) troubleshooting thread solved. M

    SOLVED Maybe an issue, maybe user error? Triad Distortion volume jump

    OK, cause I’m currently right in the middle of trying to decide if I I’m going to need to start a full troubleshooting thread or instead write a build report (at any given time, on every build, it’s always 50–50) - I’m wondering if maybe what I’m experiencing as an issue isn’t an issue at all...
