@PedalPCB would it be possible to get a schematic? Would make debugging easier. :D

Ok, so I check my 1815's. Looks like the pinout is correct. Won't work any other way. So all transistors appear to be working correctly. Only bit that doesn't is the Tone knob. Doesn't appear to be doing much of anything so...hmm. Time to debug! :p

Actually, I need to check my 1815’s. They much not be of the 2SC type.

Hey folks, I'll post some pics of my build in a few but wanted to get this out. Want to make sure this is normal before going further with it. Basically, I'm seeing an issue where the volume seems too low. To reach unity gain requires cranking the volume to around 3 o'clock. That's even with...

And to think I just use Sharpies. My art skills are lame compared to yours. Good looking pedals sir! :D

I did a search for an ODB-3 schematic. I compared the one I found to this one. It's not exact but definitely has the same DNA. They changed some of the component values: TL092 op-amps instead of RC4558's, 2N5457's instead of 2SK184's. Lots of other changes but it appears the general gist is...

Not too many new builds lately...but I do have a few personal ones to post. One of them is a bass pedal based on the Boss ODB-3. I read about the ODB-3 recently and, after listening to a few demos, it sounded quite interesting. I was about to just buy a used one to play with but, after a bit of...

Built the AionFX Heliodor which is an OD-3 clone. Really nice overdrive for sure. I kind of think of it as a mish-mash between the BD-2 and OD-2. I found it to be identical to the Brown drive setting on my OD-200. Kind of odd when you think about it...the OD-3 being what BOSS considers the...

Of course! Everyone knows that a TS circuit isn’t a true TS circuit without a vintage 4558 IC. 🤪

Strange bit of overlap in components between this and the Wilhelm. These have similar DNA? :P

One that I think might be going under the radar is the Cream Pie Fuzz. It's a rather interesting alternative to an op-amp Big Muff. I added a Tentacle to it and ended up with something that is really gnarly. Others mentioned the Raincoat but I think the Acid Rain Fuzz is a better version...

Completely agree. Access to schematics are very, very important. However, things get a bit weird when it comes to clones of certain pedals. Can't always publish the schematics without getting into deep shit. Along with that, there's a lot of work that goes into publishing PCB's and the the...

Gee...ever see the old 80's movie "Scanners"? I think someone is making that kid's head explode. Any second now it's gonna pop. :P

You should be ok with them like that. That's more or less how I have mine. Only downside I'm aware of with this configuration is that if the LDR's aren't matched then the effect might be minimized. However, with the BIAS and GAIN you can more or less get it in the ballpark. Pretty pleased with...

I turned both of them off. I’m learning that the noise is just a part of this pedal. Tweaking the gate helps. Turning it down helps minimize the noise but does make the tone a bit darker. Quite alright with me considering the subtle nausea of this effect.

Love mine. Sounds really cool with an acoustic guitar. Only thing I really want to fix with mine though is the hiss I hear with the effect. It's pretty prominent when you throw the mix all the way CW. At noon, it's not as bad...but still kinda there. Enough to have to throw a noise gate after...

Oh, right! I think I remember someone posting something about that. It was this sort of rainbow pinwheel looking pedal, right? Like a TS into a Green Muff? :P

Noice! Ya got me thinking about how to stack Muffs in more interesting ways. :D

I honestly don’t mind the cost. Saves me time. Less pain too. 😁

They come pre-stripped. Just pull off the ends and install it where ya want. Just have to get an appropriate length. I usually use 2” ones but have had projects where the switch is really close to the board. Used 1” ones for those. Also, for a 4-pin option you can get the 8-pin ones and just cut...
