    opinion and differences between D3lay and the hydra?

    Thank you that’s what I’m wanting. Simple clean delay.

    grand orbiter

    Sorry I’ve been in limbo hell. I just ordered some 13700’s should be hear next day or two. Definitely got my fingers crossed. I have a couple other pedals with working ones but they’re old builds early in my build history and feel messing with either could create a problem (stupidly no sockets)...

    opinion and differences between D3lay and the hydra?

    Cool thank you . Which would you say has cleaner delay? The 4 switchable heads is intriguing but I have a couple of delays with degrading echos and looking for clean repeats

    opinion and differences between D3lay and the hydra?

    wondering if any one has built both and their likes and dislikes between the 2 thaank you

    Thank you. I will give that a shot.

    grand orbiter

    In the 2nd picture stating “there shouldn’t be a wire connected to pin 16”. It’s the angle of the picture that makes it look like a wire connected there. There isn’t. Still have not gotten this one to work properly having revisited this one several times over this year. I’m not one to give up...

    grand orbiter

    Okay got it where it used to be I get signal in all toggle switch positions, bypass. In Vibrato mode there is no vibrato in phase mode phasing can be heard only by moving the sweep pot by hand and the phasing is audible but pretty subtle.

    grand orbiter

    So taking Chuck D bones advice looking over my build for the 10th time. I see I didn't install R34 when doing the mods. up to that point I got the effect only by manually turning the sweep pot. After installing R32 I can get no effect whatsoever AND now no signal in vibrato mode.What the hell...

    grand orbiter

    I will have to do that tomorrow gotta be up for work at 4 a.m. Really hoping to get this workingI think I need to reflow my wiring since when the FTSW got moved pin 15 and pin 10 would fluctuate a bit

    grand orbiter

    Here’s all my voltages. Nothing jumps out at me aside from the non fluctuating voltages R28-31 are the correct values according to the color bands and BOM. I think I've got 1 or 2 more LM13700's I can try

    grand orbiter

    Here’s the pictures and thanks for the input now with voltages I have something to shoot for. golden rule for me is sockets so got that never lost a tranny or IC can’t fry what ya don’t burn. Gonna check voltages in just a bit And verifying the values of R28-R30? I can and will if that’s what...

    grand orbiter

    Thank you CDB. The LFO is finnicky puts it mildly. The pedal sounds like it would be awesome if it swept automatically. I did all your mods including tantalums for C13 & C14. I'll have to check the version later tonight. And yeah visual inspection is so underrated. Too many times have I had a...

    grand orbiter

    Can anyone post their working voltages for the grand orbiter. Mine still only phases by manually turning the sweep pot. It's so close. noticed and odd thing. when turning te sweep pot my finger touched the range switch which gave it a noticeable jump in the effect's effect.

    When Audio probing

    nah I figured it out. Some idiot (that's all I'll say about the guy) left out a capacitor. on the board, It now works but I been messing with biasing (first time with quality trimmers) and 1) can't get the fade out of the distortion to end smoothly. It sputters at end. Badly. 2) Can't get Q1 to...

    Those of you who use Dale resistors…

    To be honest I’ve never heard of these but then again who am I? I’m intrigued though. Is it hype? Like another said isn’t resistance ….just resistance or is there more to it other than they look cool

    When Audio probing

    So I built a pedal that didn’t fire up properly ( if I crank the volume I can hear the effect). I get signal throughout the whole circuit except at the volume pot which I’m assuming is the last component the signal goes thru before out to the amp or pedal. I’ve checked the pot’s value and it...

    COA? And let me know when I’ll bid on it for sure unless you’ll part with that sweet utensil now? Pm me we could negotiate something I’m sure

    Those of you who use Dale resistors…

    How’d you know? I knew holding the iron properly to achieve optimum tone probably gave a little too much of my secrets away. But you know ya gotta pay it forward And now back to winning that Fig contest.

    Those of you who use Dale resistors…

    Back to those resistors. How people can’t hear the difference in their resistors blows me away. Me and Eric Johnson can listen to someone play and tell the brand of their battery or power supply. It’s really not that hard. Just gotta listen with the inner part of your ear just past the ear drum...

    50 years playing guitar

    yeah some pedals just won't work with what you're playing through or with. Different setup could be golden. Whatcha all playing through these days? Mine? PRS > tuner> modded Wha> Boss CS3> Boss NS-2 out > Wow and Flutter delay> BBE Sonic stomp > Yamaha G100head > Altec Lansing 15' speaker Boss...
