I did that with the resistors when I had one wrong. I’ll go over the caps next.

Any other ideas

Any chance we could get a section for uv files guys might want to share? I can’t seem to find the time to learn how to do this. And I’d be happy with basic knob labeling and a pedalpcb name.

Yes. R4 I used two 1m in series for =2m The mod thread calls for 2m2

I’m running this in my boss es8. In front of the amp. Volume maxed. The very first thing. In the loop is even less volume.

I used dust covers and I ended up machining the bottoms and using a few washers. Works great. I have another issue. The output volume is way low. Unfortunately I can’t figure out to to upload a video

Lol. Yeah the dust caps made it stick out just enough the back won’t go on.

Here is my luck. Put it back in the case with dust covers. Tune the bulb. Put the cover on and call it good and the dang bulb sticks up to high now. Back to taking it apart again.

That was it. I still need to change that one resistor and tune the bull in to taste. I appreciate the help and ideas guys.

I just had tape behind them.

It is a tight fit. I don’t know if I’ll ever get it back in the case again lol.

No phasing. I guess maybe the effect is weak because the output is so weak. Ok I’ll pull it apart and take pics of the other side. It’ll probably be tomorrow.

I just looked over every resistor and r26 is the only one I see wrong. The volume drop when engaged is huge. Should I go back to the original on r4. I have it at 2m original is 47k. R4 mod is unity volume mod.

Yep. R26 is 4k7. But that is in the bias circuit. How would that effect my output volume?

My vibe engaged really cuts the volume down. The fx is also pretty week and it’s hard to hear. Mods R4 two 1m in series =2m R12 two 10m in parallel =5m R14/15 =2k7 I also had to use a 200k trim and not the 250k in the bias spot. Anything obvious?

I posted pics of mine. And I’m not blaming anyone. As far as I know it’s user error. Lol

I threw a boss sd1 before mine and that pretty much fixed my squealing. Still a little with both gain and volume maxed. After playing it in front of my jcm800 gain at 9 o’clock and volume at around 1 o’clock sounds awesome. Hope that helps someone out there.

Here is the other post https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/black-eye-build…-omg.12847/ Are we sure it’s not the input/output jacks needing shielded cables?

No input cable and it’s the same. So if I use shielded cable for the input/output where should I solder the shield to. The ground lug? Next guess would be to run the switch wires like the other slo post on here. Backside of the board and over to the side down to switch.

Finally tried mine out. Gain past 9 o’clock and I get a squeal. Output past 3 o’clock too. I ran my wires in parallel over the tube. I’ll add a photo shortly. Also, the tone knob doesn’t seem to have a very large range. I really had to clear my ears to hear much of a change.
