Hello, welcome ! Dear fellow forumite, looks like a few of these soldering pads are missing some solder. Let's remember that good soldering joints are important, so that the circuit can work correctly. A clean tip and the iron temperature are also important to be able to make a good soldering...

There are lots of DS-1 available on the used market for cheap (around 40 euros/$). Many are through-hole versions (made before 2016), but it's better to ask the seller directly, or look at pictures of the inside before buying. It's very fun to modify them, there are lots of interesting and...

I understand that this amp goes to 111, that's very impressive, to say the least. But is there a Fat switch ? On the Blues Junior, when the Fat switch is engaged, i think it's quite fair to say that we can easily add a 0 to all the volume numbers, right ? With the Fat switch engaged, this amp...

Exactly, but I play on a Blues Junior III. This one goes to 12. There is also an amp that can only go to 11, with the price tag still on it, but i am not supposed to play with it. It's not meant to be used. We shouldn't even talk about it...

That's right, but when your amp's level is all the way up and your guitar is on 11, where can you go from there ? If we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do ?

Indeed, this Plastic Washer looks very comfortable. I am sure your 3PDT is grateful to you for this kind gesture. I'd humbly suggest to add another Plastic Washer inside the enclosure. It will help dampen the activation shock even more, according to serious scientific evidence.

I guess that's because we just have to click once on the dark mode icon, and it's recorded as default setting in our account's parameters, when we are logged in.

That's right. However, there won't be continuity if there is a component in the way, resistors, capacitors, etc, are "stopping" the continuity. In this example, in green there is continuity, in red there isn't. R1 pin2 is connected to R2 pin2, so the digital multimeter (DMM) should ring. Same...

The glowing enclosure is a great idea for a Lab Rat ! You aroused my curiosity, but unfortunately they aren't available at musikding.

Audioprobe : https://diy-fever.com/misc/audio-probe/ Soldering Iron temperature : I'd say somewhere between 370 and 400 °C ? I use 0.56mm soldering wire, and 380/390 °C is all right. You might have to do some tests, to find the right setting. If it's hard to put the solder on the pad...

I built the SDT-2 because i like some SDT-1 variant very much, so i wanted to try it. It's a great distortion able to get heavy on the low frequencies, just as i like them. It's quite different from the GCI Bass Brutalist which is based on the SDT-1. The gain texture feels a bit more precise...

I decided to build the Black Eye upon recommandation from @jhaneyzz. All my thanks for this kind suggestion ! The fact that some Sushi Box effects are available at musikding, allowed me to build this project. This circuit sounds amazing, it's impressive and very inspiring, it will be put to...

After a few years building stompboxes, i felt confident about these big builds, and i was very curious about these Lovetone circuits. I built the Spectron before (Meatball) and it is such a great circuit that i thought that everything coming from Lovetone must be amazing. I have to admit that...

I suggested to build your own clone, so i guess i have to give you the warning. Same warning those who taught me how to build stompboxes gave to me, a few years ago (and i laughed but they were right) : If you are going to build stompboxes, there is a chance that your interest in music shifts...

The Dark side is always the easiest path... Is there a way to keep it as default setting, when we log out ?

Link to Black Tiger Boost schems : https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/BlackTiger.pdf I didn't check the whole thread, but i see there are some doubts about the power supply readings. Is this the one ? In this case, there is no way it reads 23V, and you won't find any switch, this power...

If someone would give this effect to me to fix the issue , without any schematics, i would first reflow all suspicious pads : i think the soldering is quite "average", to say the least. Then i would clean the pcb soldering side with isopropyl alcohol, or some solder residue cleaning spray. I...

Hello, welcome ! A picture of the circuit inside the enclosure could help understand the issue and spot suspicious things. First thing that comes to mind is trying to use isolated wires for IN and Out jacks, and use some tape to stick them along the enclosure's sides, in order to put as much...

Hello, welcome ! Yes, i built it too and i need to set Treble fully CW to have some noticeable High frequencies. There is also a position on the toggleswitch that is darker than the other. But when Treble is set fully CW, Bass and Mids at 12' and the toggle is set on the brighter position...

Mods on octavers are quite unusual. You could change the status led color, but i doubt this will be enough to satisfy your need for mods. It's not like a distortion or an overdrive, there aren't any obvious things that many diyers have done before. It would help if you could be more precise ...
