    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    I’m using a Strymon Zuma, I’ll give that a go but I’ve never had a problem with it and it’s only a couple months old

    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    It’s my first build, so the answer to your question is simply “because someone else with the same problem shielded just their input wire 😬”, I did have the same question. I noticed that the tone does shift in pitch when I move the output wire away from the board with my hand, but does nothing...

    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    Another thought I had, all of my bottom row pots are hard pressed up against the board, though they all do have plastic dust caps on them. Would this be of any concern?

    Tyrian - Whistling on Volume above 12 o'clock and when Blue/Red Mode engaged - possible issues?

    I followed your suggestion and changed my input jack to shielded wire, no change in the whistle. Would you recommend I try the output as well or would that not really matter?

    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    So, I changed out the input wire for a shielded wire. Grounded the shield to the Jack and insulated it with tape. Unbound the power wires. Fixed up a couple soldering joints etc. unfortunately zero change at all, is there anything that sticks out to you on these photos? Appreciate your eye here

    Tyrian - Whistling on Volume above 12 o'clock and when Blue/Red Mode engaged - possible issues?

    Hmmm so this is my problem right now, one of my footswitch wires is soldered onto the top instead of through the hole (desoldering could not get rid of the previous botched wire I mounted in there). I'm wondering if this is the problem. I may also buy a bag of heat shrink to really insulate as...

    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    So far I've checked all my resistors*, caps and ICs. They're all where they should be. *I did at this point notice that I mounted a 22K resistor where at 27K resistor was meant to go, I didn't have any on hand so I made one with 22K and 4.7K in series. This problem happens regardless of...

    Thermionic Deluxe, high pitched squeal when bass pot turned up passed 7-8 or so

    So the dual channel pedal sounds great and works in all aspects, one thing I’m noticing though is turning the bass pot up on the high gain channel passed a certain point causes sever high pitched feedback. Just wondering where I start here, have I misplaced a component? Let me know if you’d...

    Muffin - Green Russian

    Hah, actually I had two tabs open. The Triangle build report and this one, both have backwards transistors and didn't realise I'd only read one of the build reports (evidently the one that doesn't mention why the transistors are backwards), thanks for pointing that out

    Muffin - Green Russian

    Hey @MichaelW , coming in with a beginner question here. I noticed your transistors are installed backwards, i bought the 2N5088 from Tayda, are yours a different type of transistor which is why they're installed backwards or should I be following suit?

    Beginner question about an LED listed as RLED 4K7

    Thanks, you can find what I mean here: https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/MuffinFuzz.pdf I'm seeing here now that it's a resistor, however interestingly enough I'm not seeing where LED actually goes, what am I missing?

    Beginner question about an LED listed as RLED 4K7

    Hey team, so just a quick question about my next build. I'm seeing the bill of materials says "RLED 4K7", is this just a standard 3mm LED on Tayda or should i be looking for something specific?
