    Knob quest: a smaller mini-chickenhead

    I know what the OP means. The Ibanez FL99 Classic Flange has smaller chicken-head knobs; like, smaller the ones that Smallbear or anyplace else sells. Wish you could get those aftermarket.

    Wampler Plexidrive - mid boost?

    Anyone know how to add (or adjust) the mids on the Wampler Plexidrive circuit? I know the new(ish) mini Plexidrive has the mids toggle - just curious if anyone knows where/how that is implemented. Thx!

    I’d be ok with that.

    Yep, I'd be in for a V1 Copper, maybe a Sheriff.

    Flanger To DIY or not to DIY?

    What other flanger is in the works? We have the BF-2, but that’s the only one I’ve seen on PPCB so far.

    PCB for vacuum tube socket?

    Thx - I'm looking to do this: solder the tube socket to a PCB, run the wires from the main board to the socket PCB, mount the socket PCB inside the pedal case, swap tubes in/out easily. Think I found something on evilbay, but it's a little pricey - if I can find an etchable PCB layout, I'll...

    PCB for vacuum tube socket?

    Does anyone sell PCBs for mounting single 9-pin (12AX7-type) vacuum tube sockets? Going to start my Tube Driver project soon and want something a little cleaner than all of those wires running directly to the socket legs. Thx! - Buck

    Missing Build Docs / Schematics

    Any chance for a drilling template/layout for the Recycler? I'm itching to get this project started.

    Cloning the Rare Boss CE-1 Chorus... Well... Kinda!

    I'm building a Karaoke as well, but have been slow going as I have multiple builds in progress. Yours looks great!

    Electrolytic caps: tolerance/accuracy and brands?

    I know it's kinda hit & miss across the board with capacitor tolerances, but I don't think I've ever seen 5% tolerant electrolytics; typically it's 10% to 20%. Are some brands/types more accurate/less tolerant than others? And am I the only one that meter-measures caps for lowest...

    Should I Build a DS-1?

    I did a PCB using the original DS-1 layout (including the TA7136AP IC and 1S2473 diodes), minus the bypass switching so it can be wired for true-bypass. My life has been extremely busy over the last year, so I'm hopefully going to be etching the boards this weekend.

    Tube Driver Build: Enclosure?

    I etched a board for a Tube Driver a long while back, and I'm thinking about finishing it up. Do I NEED an enclosure with vents? I've read that the TD tube doesn't generate much heat, if any. If so, any recommendations for vented enclosures (slanted, if possible)? Thanks!

    Nucleus build: mids selector

    I'm working up a label for the case of my Nucleus build, but would like to know the settings (L to R) of the mids selector (low-med-high). Is that the correct order, looking at the case with the circuit/toggle installed?

    Another cap purchasing question......

    Yep, I read the BOM. 😎 I’ve just read too many negative things about X7R MLCCs, that I was trying to stay away from them. I guess I’ll give ‘em another shot. EDIT: no part number on those WIMAs on ebay, so I’ll pass for now.

    Another cap purchasing question......

    So, where are you guys getting your small 1uF caps? I'm building the Nucleus, and it's got several 1uF caps squeezed between other (small) caps, and the ones I just got from Tayda aren't going to fit. I can get MLCC X7Rs all day long from Mouser, but these look like (for the most part) coupling...
