    what software is the pedalPCB forum?

    I know way off topic, but the forum has a really nice clean look to it. Is it custom or opensource or ??? I used to do websites but that was AGES ago. I'm probably pretty far behind the times....

    General Tso LDR/LED combo thoughts

    I honestly didn't have enough time to really compare before I got lazy and just installed the VTL. They're nice but hard to find. I had some left over so though might as well just go with them and be done with it. The Aion Electronics version of the compressor specified them vs making a...

    General Tso LDR/LED combo thoughts

    This might be interesting - but sounds like your's is working fine I tested a bunch and just wound up going with VTL54C that I had left over. https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/what-green-leds-for-general-tso.2729/ Very cool!

    BC560C source

    thanks - I thought the "B" might be ok but wasnt sure. Tayda has those.

    BC560C source

    Need a bunch of BC560C (not B) for a project(s). Mouser/Digikey are phased out (they have the BC550C) and tayda has the BC560B. Any sources that are reliable? Looking for about 40-50 parts. There's China - are these likely counterfits or too cheap to bother...

    General Tso's Compressor Component Question ?

    The good old inxpensive TL072 is FET input just like OPA2134. Im running it in my optical compressor and it sounds great. I do have some of the OPA2134s but have not seen (heard) the need to swap it in

    Getting to know Daisy (C++)

    I've used it (code blocks and GCC) to develop an entire suite of DLLs for some of our test equipment (frequency response, plotting, spc, dsp, etc.) and it's been very robust. This is on Windows though -just checked and yeah: last windows update was march 2020 and mac was dec 2013! o_O:(

    Trouble finding 2N2222’s & 2N3904 in 150-200 hfe range

    How many do you need? I have about 1000 metal can 2N2222's. Just tested a handful with my cheapo tester and they range from 100 to 200

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    My thoughts exactly

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    Thanks - I'm just going to use the MLCC. Especially since this is not exactly a "hifi" type of pedal like a compressor or super clean boost or anything.

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    So it's not just capacitance - it's electrical noise. So again - probably overthinking this - MLCC or film? If there is "less noise" in film why not (aside from cost and size) use them? And so what have a "too small" footprint? Or is MLCC vs film "electrical noise" not much of an issue in...

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    Thanks - yeah i have a few of those - they're 3.5mm wide vs the pcb footprint 2.5mm so it's a tight fit and there are two smooshed between some others that I would have to get creative with. Maybe one on the other side of the board. just wondering what the diff would be between MLCC and film -...

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    Right... why? Coming from HiFi you would never do this.... is it just packaging, cost or ???

    Dark Rift Delay 1uF caps - ceramic?

    There are a boatload of 1uF coupling caps in the Dark Rift Delay - why the small package footprint? It pretty much dictates ceramic - which I have but.... Is it better to try to cram a 1uF film in there? Or doesn't it matter?

    1N4002 Diode Substitution?

    Yes it's the protection diode - it "protects" the rest of the circuit if you plug it in with reverse +/-9VDC 1N5817 is fine
