I prefer Elite-Petite.

I only solder next to an open window with a fan blowing across my workspace towards the window. That's my version of a fume extractor, the only problem being that during the colder months I don't have much time to get things finished before it's too cold and dark for open windows.

Trademarks, not patents. Patents are for new inventions, not basic stuff like boxes. Patents also expire relatively fast, while trademarks are forever, as long as you defend them from copiers. I took an interest in this stuff at one point so I learned the differences between copyright...

You can't copyright something like the shape of a box, that's not how copyright works. You can copyright the artwork on the box. Trademark is what covers things like company names and things that are recognisable to consumers like a distinctive container. I am certain that Boss has their...

Different transistors have different pinouts. Meaning, you have to make sure which leg is which before you plug it in. Plugging a transistor in the wrong way will not work and could possibly damage the transistor. EDIT: There are different holes to accommodate different configurations. Just use...

I have a DD20, though I haven't used it in years. It runs off a normal center negative 9V adaptor, just like compact Boss pedals.

I used the Tayda 1590BB2 ^ - no problem.

That Strymon next to the Behringer looks like a Brigadier

Behringer OCTAVE DIVIDER on the far right.

Thanks. And I can confirm that having a baritone is great fun. Like you need more GAS.

Well, @fig - this video has been well received, so I'll be doing some more. Maybe a slide guitar + tremolo pedal thing. I could do a lap steel one too. Might be an album in it. ;)

Oh, @fig - you can't see it in the video, but I am in fact using one of the Fig Labs picks you so generously donated to me. Thanks again.

Thanks, and I am planning on grabbing some TL072s from you when next I order. There's a few things on my want list so it'll happen eventually, just dealing with other stuff right now.

And the cheapest postage option to Australia is just under US$20. If I can't buy locally or from Asia (which is relatively close) then I can't build pedals, it's that simple. If I had to source everything from the US or Europe I'd be better off just buying finished pedals.

Well, that's great, but as I keep saying, if I don't hear a problem, then maybe, just maybe, there isn't a problem with these particular ones. I intend to record a demo of the pedal. As I recall the originals I've tried, they're a bit dirty and glitchy anyway. So this one seems to me...

I'm not hearing anything bad with the ones I got. I compared them with some known good ones in my Kliché and they sound the same to me. My gear isn't exactly hifi though, so it's possible that they're slightly noisier than the name brand ones. I didn't bother recording them for comparison, since...

This one's been waiting for a while; I've been busy with various unpleasantries. Lots of parts, so I took it slow and avoided blunders. Fired up first try, and it sounds great on guitar and baritone. Lots of fun. It's a little glitchy but that's part of the deal. The originals are no less so...

Isn't that diameter, not circumference? Because a circumference of 7.25 inches = a diameter of around 2.3 inches, which is pretty small.

I've gone over the PCB and created a BoM for this PCB. I'll fix the errors or omissions if you find any, please feel free to check because I'm a guitar/bass player, not an electrical engineer, and I have a very limited understanding of how any of this actually works. (34 resistors) 1 68 1...

AliExpress, that's where most of my knobs come from. Here's a few links to sellers I've bought from: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002542609203.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32737268795.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000437856957.html These mini-chickees fit pedals well, I...
