    Chop Shop with MMBFJ201

    Thanks for the post! I had a non-function Chop Shop on my bench for a few months and figured it was the MMBFJ201s which I didn't measure before I installed them. I pulled the old ones and used your 100R resister method to measure the new ones. Now it works. I wanted to post to clear up a...

    Capacitor leads vs. resistor leads

    You could try 63/37 solder. It clumps less than 60/40 in my experience. Also, with electros, I usually place them with the full lead (not trimmed). After you solder both leads, you can go back and hit each joint with the iron and run it up the lead quickly. This wicks away most of the...

    Bandit of Arizona (Boss BF-1) flanger

    "Yep. The original had the SAD1024 in it. Lucas actually gave this one the old SAD1024 to MN3007 treatment like the electric mistress and the mxr m117 so, I can’t just drop in a 3204. I can definitely use a breadboard and some jumpers though🤔. I want to dive into this circuit some more in the...

    Bandit of Arizona (Boss BF-1) flanger

    Super cool. If I remember correctly the BF-1 had a SAD1024 which is 2 512 stage delay chips. You have to adjust your frequencies accordingly, depending on how they used the stages (series or not). Might be fun to hear the 3204 in there since you have some around.

    Recommendations for Space Echo style delay using 3 x pt2399?

    If you are after the cool delay rhythms the Hydra Delay gets you there. Alternatively, you could post a WTB for the Sagan. Someone might have one hanging around.

    Small delay PCBs

    Mad Bean has a couple 1590B delays that are excellent. I'm partial to the Degenerator. There was also a 1590A 2399 delay, the Cave Dweller, but it's discontinued. you'd have to etch your own.

    Beginner looking for advice

    "My name is Gordo and it's been 15 days since I built my last pedal..." Damn Gordo, you got me. :ROFLMAO: We need chips (Tl072 for 2 weeks, lol). I'd recommend an Aion board for your first time. The build docs are very thorough and geared for beginners. Also there is a a "where to buy...

    Anyone used Tayda’s glossy clear enclosure?

    If you want shiny, you do the sanding regimen and then use a polishing wheel and polishing compounds. I have a set of polishing wheels that fit on my drill press. They are made for polishing car rims. This is a pain, probably takes an hour. Also the no-film is pretty delicate when you...

    Anyone used Tayda’s glossy clear enclosure?

    To get that look you need to sand and polish a bare metal enclosure. You'll have to use the no-film water slide to put the graphics. Tayda used to sell a polished box, but they've been out of stock for many years now. My recent aesthetic is just sanded. It takes about 20-30 minutes. I start...

    Anyone used Tayda’s glossy clear enclosure?

    I just got one. Mine looks nicer than the photo from sticky1138. It looks like the polished concrete floor of Food4Less.

    PT-2399 Quality Question

    I buy in bulk from Tayda and sample them in the circuit. I have bought from Small Bear in the past, but had a few non-ideal ones from them, as well. IMO, not worth buying in bulk from the expensive places. Tayda in 2024 is much improved from Tayda in 2018, so, a lot of the bad experiences you...

    PT-2399 Quality Question

    There are 3 packages for the 2399, Tayda sells the smaller ones that would fit the PPCB adaptor.

    Phabio, the one that got away

    Wow! Very cool! How does the specs of the 3109 compare to a 13700? Wonder what the magic is, maybe a redesign around something more common would do the trick?

    Off Board Wiring in Production Pedals??

    Been doing a lot of pedal repairs, recently. I notice most production pedals have off board wiring for pots. I was wondering if anyone knew what the cost or ease reason likely was ? Since for me PCB pots cost the same as lug and off board wiring is a PITA 🤷‍♂️

    I recommend a troll project called "Hot Glue". Install all the components on the back side of the board and fill in all the space on the front with hot glue.
