    Cepheid Chorus: help me find legit 3207/3102 chips!

    I think the “mn” versus the “v” was what I was getting tripped up on…a distinction I was unaware of. I just ordered a few of each from ya just to have around for the future.

    Looking for subjective opinions on chorus pedal sounds…

    Oh, lort, it’s another Spin FV-1 build… Literally just yesterday ordered my first two pre-soldered forays into that world (an FV-1and a Spatialist) which I’ll embark upon once they hit my mailbox. Wish me luck.

    Minor Beef with Cepheid chorus LED brightness on LFO…

    Hey folks so I finished a Cephid build that is pretty flawless, but I do think the brightness of the LFO LED is really weak. Pretty hard to even see in a lit room. Is there a different kind of LED that I should be utilizing for the LFO, or alternately could I swap out the relevant resistor...

    Looking for subjective opinions on chorus pedal sounds…

    So I just finished the Cephid chorus pedal, and it sounds great, but it’s not QUITE what I’m looking to put in my rig. The Cephid (BOSS CE-1/2) sound I am now realizing has that thick, warm 70s/early 80s vibe that’s kinda “always on” and even at its most conservative setting verges on a...

    Thumb Sucker - What Did I “FRY”?!?

    If you’re wondering why I’m being such a weirdo with the long braided leads, it’s because I mount these in rackmount enclosures. P.S. how do I mark issues as “resolved”…not seeing a button…?…

    Thumb Sucker - What Did I “FRY”?!?

    Hey @Diynot so I was actually thinking about trying a swap out BOTH of those ICs as well as the resistor, but somehow (no idea the culprit even now) I got the problem to go away: I was about to address your original request to take some pics, and I just got a little obsessive as I was observing...

    Thumb Sucker - What Did I “FRY”?!?

    But I’m lying here in bed, lazy AF, and the pedal is an entire room away. Suggestions? Kidding I’ll snap some pics in a few minutes but I can pretty much guarantee you won’t see any external damage or shitty solder joints.

    Thumb Sucker - What Did I “FRY”?!?

    Hey folks, So I had a Thumb Sucker build that was complete and sounded perfect, but THEN… I started desoldering/resoldering pots and jacks because I wanted to reposotion them…now the ratio control is non-functional…possibly from overheating components in the chain whilst desoldering, otherwise...

    Cepheid Chorus: help me find legit 3207/3102 chips!

    So @fig ’s chips arrived today—“cool audio” branded versions—and sure as s#%t they worked a charm! Fig, can’t thank you enough, dude. The finished pedal sounds really fantastic and is incredibly quiet to boot, I find. Anecdotally, I happened to be playing the right chord as I first dialed...

    Cepheid Chorus: help me find legit 3207/3102 chips!

    Yeah I checked StompBox parts and the other place listed above, and they both have those chips LISTED, but “out of stock”…which I’m guessing is a semipermanent status at best, LOL.

    Cepheid Chorus: help me find legit 3207/3102 chips!

    Hey folks, So after finishing a ridiculously clean and meticulous build of the Cepheid with every component tested before being soldered in, I am clearly having the EXACT same symptims and problems as this fellow here…...

    Modifying Old Rockman Pedal for "Always On"...?...

    Yep, I'm definitely sending Robert a unit!

    Modifying Old Rockman Pedal for "Always On"...?...

    Hey @Robert and @Gordo I REALLY like where you guys are going with this (nudge, nudge)...but this particular specimen has already been 99% desoldered/resoldered by yours-truly to be racked up (see attached pics) so I think it's staying home ;-) THAT SAID, these pedals are SUPER under-valued...

    Modifying Old Rockman Pedal for "Always On"...?...

    Would it stand to reason then that the same issue (needing schematic to proceed further) would come into play were I to instead choose to replace that FET switch with a toggle switch?

    Integral Preamp - Modifying the EQ bands?

    Hey Folks, So I just finished this fun-and-easy-build, and it sounds great, but it got me thinking about messing around with what frequencies the "bass" and "treble" knobs actually affect. So much so, that I socketed some of the resistors and capacitors that I THINK are responsible for tonal...
