So quick question on this, does it really matter since technically these power wires are getting 9v like most other pedals? I really don’t know so I am just playing devils advocate. Or is this one of those situations where its more about milliamps vs voltage? If it does then I will change my...

As summer is coming to an end I am trying to finish up a few things I made boxes for already. This one got tucked behind some stuff and I almost forgot about it. Transistor wise I went with a 1t308a. No real reason besides I have a bunch of them, lol. I did socket if so I can try some others in...

Thank you sir! Looking at black hole I am digging the rotory encoder for the selector.

Aionfx also uses a different LDR. They use an NSL-19M51. I’m not saying the 9203 wont work but I know small bear quit carrying them for a while because they were inconsistent quality wise. It might be worth trying another ldr like the 1951. I have the project in my que and have sourced the...

So can someone explain the fv-1 clock module to me like I am a toddler? If it gives you more control over the frequency why would it not be used on every project instead of the crystal and 15p cap? Also on the same note how do you know how to adjust it? Why wouldn't it be on the fv-1 prototype...

Lol, up until last week you only had to do $25. I have been watching it for about 2 months and the parts haven’t changed yet either. It’s hard to have to many 2n5088s though. Next time I may get some of the j113’s. You can get the penny deal on another order again. I have done it twice. I try...

It was added recently to the site :). I have not used it but it was added by Robert so I assume its correct. https://drill.taydakits.com/box-designs/new?public_key=WFNKV0FrdjgzQzVVaFFVUkk4Wm5kdz09Cg==

Now that you say that I think someone made a custom box out of a large cigar box or something like that. Then they custom cut a plastic piece for the top. I may be making this up but I think I saw that at some point.

Ohhhhhh big side note here. I do remember you have to dial in one of the trimpots to get the matrix working properly. If you don’t you just get a flatline. I figured this out the hard way. Because of this you have to solder all the pots and switches then drop the whole thing out again, plug it...

I don’t dislike it I just don’t love it. I could see where if it were in the “right hands” it could be made to sound good. They just aren’t my hands

I actually did this last year but didn’t see a build report on it so here it goes. This is the C19 Databus Drive from parasitstudio. The first thing to know is its big. The board itself is quite large. The reason I did this project is simply because of the led matrix. You can get a lot of the...

Let me start by saying this wiring is not my finest work. I didn’t realize until I was putting it together that I had used an old power/jack format vs my current board mounted setup. It makes for a little sloppy wiring on my part. That being said lets talk about the build. Its pretty straight...

The ones i have seen at tayda don't match the specs they have listed in the bom. No worries though, it’s not this project :). I don’t know much about them to be honest. The best I can tell looking at the schematics is its acting as some sort of power filter. It looks like they are adding those...

So i haven’t built this yet but I do have it. I was doing some measuring yesterday for the box and also trying to source some of the parts. Its kinda wonky. I think i found some spacers from tayda that will work but i am not 100% yet. I will post info once I get a little deeper into it and share...

I like that it doesn’t sound like every brick reverb. It seems like no matter which one you build when you hear it you immediately know it’s a brick, lol. I assume it’s the modulation. It’s nice to have a different flavor so to speak. It’s very pristine.

Thank you sir. My kids are both on the spectrum. It’s a combination of their names. I started building years ago as a stay at home dad. Now it’s something I am hoping I can teach them if they show interest.

Today’s build you ask? Secondhand Glitter (deflector reverb). Long story short, a friend asked yesterday if I had a reverb for a gig tomorrow night. I told him I had a few. A 1 knob a 2 knob and maybe a 6 knob. Two are Belton bricks and then I have had this fv-1 in my que. I decided to put it...

I have a few of your layouts waiting in my pcbway cart from your other cee’s ventures. I was hoping to wait for this one before i ordered though. I wish I would have known about skidmark beforehand. It seems like he did some pretty cool stuff. I can wait, i have other boards gathering dust that...

Today’s pedal to mark off the list? The Aionfx Redshift phaser. I generally like phasers and who doesn't like switches? This certainly has a lot of the latter. Its a pretty simple build it just takes a little effort to get everything lined up with the enclosure. I ended up tacking in one leg of...
