    SOLVED BYOC KoT issue... Only one side working

    Idk, looking at the schematic I think what I listed is correct. There’s a few ways to wire a 3PDT but I’d trust the schematic over anything else. This way of wiring it is pretty much the same way Devi Ever did it. The gut shot is from a “Rocket” owned by another forum member. Looking at the left...

    SOLVED BYOC KoT issue... Only one side working

    Think you’re right about the bad switch. I might be looking at this wrong but Isn’t the 3-6 jumper for ground connection? Lug 1 looks like the LED, Lug 2 ground, and lug 5 looks like the circuit input. If any of those weren’t making connection inside the switch during bypass the circuit input...

    SOLVED BYOC KoT issue... Only one side working

    Turn both switches off. Looking at it from the gut shot check for continuity between lugs 8 and 9 of the “right” foot switch (the one below the 5mm clipping LEDs) Double check all the jumpers on both foot switches and check those for continuity too. My guess is the footswitch on the right side...

    Wanna see my Rocket? (Devi Ever content)

    It’s lifting ground from the VFM side. It’s wired so that the Trem only works when the Trem switch is on AND the Soda Meiser is turned on. The trem sounds pretty bad by itself so the way it’s wired is really the only way it sounds good. The wire I circled is the extra ground wire going to the...

    Buying Diodes on Ebay

    I’ve never paid any extra fees or costs ordering from Ukraine sellers. Just the cost of parts and shipping. Everything I’ve ordered from sovcom came quick and was exactly as advertised. Edit: well this post aged like warm milk. Lol. Haven’t ordered from Ukraine since the new tariffs but I’m...

    IN34A spec

    You probably already know this but pretty much any of the Russian D9 series diodes work great as replacements for a 1N34A. I use the D9K mostly. They’re cheap and readily available on eBay from sellers in Ukraine.

    The Syntheziser pcb is an exposed trace nightmare.

    Moonn Electronics - Space Invader (Devi Ever Rocket) - Trem Switch Mod

    Here’s the mod for anyone who wants to add the Trem switch to their Moonn Electronics - Space Invader aka Devi Ever Rocket (Vintage Fuzz Master > Soda Meiser) 👾. It’s only a couple trace cuts, some jumpers and a SPDT switch. The mod is just cutting ground to the VFM side but the trem doesn’t...

    Has anyone built the Death by Audio Synthesizer album?

    Sorry it’s been a little while since I signed on here. If anyone still needs that list let me know.

    SOLVED Low tide gate trim doesnt seem right

    If nothing else works I’d try checking for continuity between points that are supposed to be connected in the circled area. Idk if it’s really the right way to diagnose it but it worked for me once already when I had no idea what the issue was. It’s frustrating as heck when you know you did...

    SOLVED Low tide gate trim doesnt seem right

    The switch is technically “backwards” but as you already know will be ok as long as you remember which way is which. If nothing else works for you try testing for continuity between points with a multimeter in this area of the schematic. It’s what I did and ended up finding the broken trace in...

    Figment voltages

    Turns out the power supply I was using went bad 😂 And that’s why I never doubt Robert. Ever.

    SOLVED Low tide gate trim doesnt seem right

    It doesn’t seem common. I’ve built a bunch of these and the only other one it happened on was the Dirt Dauber. Defective trace after the protection diode so nothing was being powered. So other than these two they’ve all worked perfect and sound great. These were the two traces on my board that...

    SOLVED Low tide gate trim doesnt seem right

    Not sure if this could be the issue with how it’s acting but the gate on mine wasn’t working properly and it ended up being a broken trace under the solder mask. The pcb I got actually had two broken traces but once jumpered everything worked properly. It got me to start continuity checking all...

    SOLVED Low tide gate trim doesnt seem right

    I believe only one of them is supposed to be on at a time.

    Figment voltages

    Are the drain voltages really that high? When I max out the trimmers I can only get around 13v. For now I adjusted each one to around 7.5v and it sounds pretty good. Just having a hard time doubting anything you post so figured I should just ask. lol. Thanks.

    Pedal Artwork

    Amazing work. Paint makers or brushed model paint? Guessing oil based will work better than anything water based for this stuff? Any brands or paint types you recommend? Thanks!

    DEMO Figment Preamp (Acorn MIGFET 50P)

    Do it!! I can’t wait to finish mine. I like how you rigged the LED up to float like that. I gotta remember that. Next time if you don’t wanna bolt it on try this epoxy. It works wonders.

    DEMO Figment Preamp (Acorn MIGFET 50P)

    Just wondering. What is the benefit of doing this over the stock setup? I understand it’ll have a better sweep overall so mostly wondering about the adding of the resistor.
