Thanks for sharing. Not done, but I'm excited about this one. I haven't built a harmonic tremolo!

Thanks for sharing the build doc! This is a work in progress. :)

I might use it - I have two pedal boards at home, one for the basement and one for upstairs. And now I have two compressors I don't mind using (I really didn't like the Oceanid). I also have the Aion Quartz, partially built on my workbench. But I'm not likely to build another compressor after...

This is a report on Dylan159's "That" Compressor. It looked like an interesting circuit to try putting on a PCB, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I don't know what I was thinking - great idea to put a compressor on a custom PCB when you're the kind of guy who can barely tell compressors are on...

Awkward! Seems like something might have gotten garbled since I resumed the post from a saved draft. Should be there now.

This is a report on the Muffler noise gate. I've been looking for a noise gate, but the Muzzle was out of stock for a while and also relies on a THAT4301 that I can't seem to find anywhere. So I figured I'd try this, although not many people are talking about it. Why not? I don't know. This is a...

All of these are confusing. In my head I sometimes think "what's on the ol' workbench today?" When I return to work. And it's even worse as the title of a forum thread since it's a relatively natural informal phrasing for asking other people. Want more proof? Probably the third most popular...

We should institute a points/rewards system for him. Each build doc is worth 5 points, every 50 points can be redeemed for a sack of white nylon washers and a commendation.

I'm wondering the same as Ginsly, but for GE diodes. I see 1N34A for sale on eBay from China. Don't care if they're authentic or anything, just wondering what they are or if they'd work. It's hard to stomach $2 apiece at SBP.

Wow, that's a lot of wires! Love the Fargo callout. Feels like it would be hard *not* to mention Fargo.

This is a a report on the U-235 from Parasit. I tacked this on to my Parasit order because it seemed like a really clean-sounding suboctave based on demos on the site. I don't think I've seen anyone else talking about this pedal, which is a shame. Inspiration The inspiration for the pedal is...

I think Parasit is the best I've seen for this type of thing TBH. U-235 is pretty good if all you want is suboctave. PPCB Dirt Dauber is also fun but I found tracking to be worse.

I just laid out and built a PCB for the stock rat. Hadn't played a rat in a while and was impressed by the tone. Was thinking of trying to combine multiple different rat pedals (I wanted a true replacement for my Joyo Splinter, which has a few additional switches for fat/normal). Multi-RAT looks...

I'd love to see what you've worked up... Or get a PCB. I want to get more into breadboarding but I've been put off mostly by the pain of hooking up pots to the breadboard. But I haven't gotten around to laying out a PCB myself. I'm kinda picturing this looking like a mega-Auditorium. So it...

I feel you on the wiring. I think Aion's wiring guidance also lends itself to longer, messier wires.

How should I read symbols on a schematic, where no pin is specified, the symbol appears symmetrical, but directionality is important for pins? In particular, I'm wondering about pots and JFETs. Here's some example pots to show what I mean: PPCB schematics, and other more recent ones I've...

What do you use for the heating? And what size tubing? I should use heat shrink tube, would be a lot neater. But I've avoided because I didn't want to spend much on a tool for heating.

The birds are basically all original artwork, but it might depend on your definition of original. Occasionally I use Gemini to see if I can get a good pose, otherwise I'll look for a photograph with the pose I want. Then I do a sort of tracing on top of those to reduce it to a narrow range of...

This is a a report on the Chop Shop OD, based on the Fairfield Barbershop. This pedal showed up on some pots in the original Top Five thread and is pretty consistently recommended on this forum, so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Inspiration I was originally going to give this...

Thanks! Wingspan is one of my favorite games as well... I've got all the expansions.
