Thanks for your input guys/gals. Yeah, I’m spoiled with how PPCB does things and I (wrongfully) asume most electronic sellers are the same. If nothing happens by Monday I will email Klaus and see what’s up. I understand that if it is a one man operation things could take some time (didn’t knew...

Thank you tegendemuur, and yes, I’m well aware about the import duties run on me. The point is that our service relies on the shipping ID or number, and as long as I don’t report it to customs, all is delayed (they don’t make things fast anyway) and since they run their own way to tax the...

So, long story short, I needed a clean fender tube base preamp to stack my drive(s) on top, to send both direct and class d power amp. My Amt pre isn’t delivering the goods and I wasn’t convinced to use clean fet preamp (Indiana ppcb) so I wanted to buy a particle accelerator from c2c but they...

hey man! if i've read correctly you stated you used one NE 555? because i think thats not the normal IC for that application: datasheet is that one? that produces pulses...so to not be mistaking it with an NE5532 Hope it helps!

So, having problems with the C2C (still can't debug it so i sent it to a person who knows better to solve the issue than i would :cry: ), i've figured that i needed a stop gap solution for playing/recording direct. Bought this pcb, thinking that i had the original Wampler Tweed and didn't...

thanks for the help! Sure, this is the other side: Some Spots are gold colored, but there is solder at the center (I was thinking in measure conductivity there but today had no time) Right now i don't have the switch jack connected, only the return one is, and i've wired those as this picture...

Well, when reality strikes... I've completed the soldering of the elements, turned the pedal on and... NADA The leds turn on but no sound comes from the preamp. I boosted the gain on both channels and i just hear crackle and no signal from the guitar, also the second led from right to left...

good news everyone! Some advances have been made from the last time. It's been a while, lots of things going on. Unfortunately my dad had to be hospitalized (now he is fine) so that took some time from working on this. Populated the PCB and i'm about to finish to solder last components. I...

Second part of the journey: Today arrived some small value components so I began to populate the circuit. I didn’t find the uf4007 diode so I bought an 1n4007 but reading the properties of it, now I don’t know if it’s compatible so I’ll wait on that one. Apart from a resistor value that’s a bit...

yup, but when i was getting the parts, they were out of stock :( so i had to improvise.

Well, i will start this post by saying that i'm so excited to have received the most difficult parts to get for this challenging (for me) project and i just couldn't wait more to begin. This is something I've been waiting for a long time, a pedalboard friendly tube pre that has 2 channels and fx...

ok, now that we have an Ubersonic (wink) we need the Ecstasy, it's older brother, so it's not an only child (double wink) Sorry couldn't help it, hehe. If i don't electrocute myself putting together the Supersonic, i may go with the Bassdude, because, gas, dude.

What about a drill template? i was waiting for this, since i think it will be a bit expensive to import an enclosure :/

well, i'm a happy camper! my supersonic PCB is here, despite not knowing anything about the local shipping (thanks for nothing Correos de Chile). I will implement the corrections on this as per instructed by @vigilante398 and apply a mod for the fx loop (trs style one hole and Y cable, will see)...

I'm in Chile. Normally any item imported from USA wasn't taking too long. The thing is that national mailing service didn't even generated a tracking number, so technically my package is in nowhere land, until someone finds the envelope and tags it. Usually it doesn't take that long and you can...

my Supersonic pcb is stuck in customs :'( i can't do nothing, its there since October 15... i'm wishing is going through because if it doesn't, i'll have to buy a Particle Accelerator one.

I’m really sorry the team behind this had this situation but I’m sure this will bring even better results at the end. Mine is coming for a long trip to South America so I’ve read the bad news when it was coming to me. :(

i've already ordered ;) Many thanks!

No shipping to Chile tho? 🫠🥺 I wanted The supersonic

Thanks for your reply @cdwillis , I’ve followed your advice of putting the “mid” control in place of the resistor and worked! After that I’ve replaced some values and put a capacitor that I don’t know why I’ve put a wire instead. Also managed to put the germanium diode in the volume wires as...
