Slinkys because they're the cheapest. 11s for anything I enjoy playing. The Fender Hendrix set is pretty nice though. I like the balance of having a not so heavy low end, really nice mid range focus and balance for chords.

Actually, the intelligent relay may do it, since it daisy chains PCBs. Dunno if alternate code is required. It's a bit overkill, I guess you're looking for a solution where you don't need to make your own PCB.

Not I said the fly :(

You need to control two relays, so I don’t think so.

Then it's a practical exercise in sizing up a MCU (ATtiny processor), writing some code for it, and putting together a PCB. An ATtiny85 will handle it.

Definitely doable. The question is how you want to toggle via footswitch? Cycle across each mode in order? Number of taps per mode? Morse code? The problem is all in how you plan to control via footswitch. Anything which isn’t cycle through modes means that you need to react on switch lift...

I knew about Lani's layout. I saw that you had yours under a CC license, I was curious where it was shared. :) Happy to link to it from my repo: https://github.com/szukalski/pedal-dylan159

Nice one! Missed this post originally. Great layout, is this available somewhere?

The pot shaft is 6.35mm but there is a bit covering the shaft as well. Check the data sheet from the manufacturer. 7mm is pretty tight and doesn't give much leeway for wayward drilling.

You can find a couple of DipTrace templates in the link: https://github.com/szukalski/sheepylove-diptrace/tree/main/faceplates tldr; 7mm for pots, 6.4mm for toggle switches. They come pre-drilled. The only challenge you'll have for an amp chassis is the max size, 670x600mm at JLCPCB. Hate to...

They don't sound the same, some are noisy as fudge. I don't know if there is a source which screens them for noise levels. SMD tend to be much better in uniform quality.

@pingpongcomputer your audio path should be as short as practically possible and avoid crossing over itself where you can. Your input and output traces overlap each other, albeit on different layers. This could bring oscillation, especially in higher gain applications.

As a coincidence, AliExpress had 10x 1590lb for €26. Sends like the universe is sending a message.

2SK30A-GR Is what I used in SMD.

They have an Audio Engineering Discord if you ever want to chat with him. Boots Boost is possibly my fav boost. Just clean and quiet. No colouring or preservatives added.

Put it on the Wishlist..

Yeah, this always gives me caution. Normal practice. Sometimes it works, but most of the time not. I’ve never had an issue with the end product though.

Just because some watery tart lobs an IC at you....

These look great!

Hopefully they had a chat with Dave before-hand as a courtesy. Would hate to see this place getting less stuff shared because of it.
