To be on the side of caution, recheck everything one (maybe 2) more time(s) before dropping the new chip in so as to avoid potentially damaging a second chip. I say that because my 1st troubleshooting thread was an Abyss that took me looking over the components way too many times to finally...

That would be my suspicion anyways, but for the sake of due diligence, try reflowing your solder joints and make sure there are no whisker bridges anywhere

With an 8.6v source the 1044 voltages match mine close enough. However, presuming your voltages readings on the 565 are pin 1-14 measured/listed counter clockwise, you are reading way hotter than mine. pin 1 on mine is -5.5, 4/5 are 2.4, 6/7 are 4.4v, 10 is 5.9. I audio probed my 565 and get...

I would verify voltage from the charge pump and then audio probe the 565 chip. Here is a pinout diagram I found on the web Looks like you should get some sort of output on pins 4/6/7, but don’t quote me on that

Did you verify the orientation of the vactrol, specifically the LED side since the LDR is unpolarized.

Welcome to the forum and building in general. It’s not so much whether a particular project is easy/fool proof or not, but more ab learning a good, effective workflow. Just look at the troubleshooting section, plenty of “easy” projects end up there because the build process was……lacking. First...

I have a Fuzzdog Pup Crusher going in this one.

Just got this the other day. Shitty lighting but did a light and dark background. It is def a highlighter yellow with tinge of green. Akin to a 90’s neon yellow

It is coming from Sweden. That said, it if it ain’t your jam then you do you. I can also recommend the Madbean glitchee and the PPCB Octarock is awesome. The Ocelot (boss OC-2) is a classic

Can’t talk glitchy octave weirdness without a nod to https://www.parasitstudio.se/ The PPCB Heterodyne or Flock are good for some weird

I tend to favor higher contrast stuff so the blue vein does it for me. Yellow is pretty cool. Red has a leather-esque look to it that some might dig. But if you are trying to get a feel for what sells, at least offer 1 of the red and then gather your data based on demand

So not sure how this physically landed (butter side down or not if you will), but have you checked all the switches and pots to make sure the shafts/toggles didn’t get jammed into the works and lose continuity?

Dead simple DI I pilfered from another build report here and used in my unicab build. https://tataylino.com/simple-di-box/#google_vignette Works well with my acoustic rig. As far as a pre maybe consider the frequency interchange, simple eq and gain

Is the Kazoo Horn switch really an SPDT on/off/on? Looking at the schematic it really doesn’t appear to be offering 3 options. The last one I did way back when I think I just used an on/on and that seems to match with the demos I’ve seen.

Acetylene is a very flexible pre for headphone amp

Put a 100k resistor across lugs 1 and 3 of the 100k pot to get 50k

I like it well enough if my shit works after I’m done. So far I’m 100% success (not saying much since the sample size is pretty small). I have some hand shaking/nerve(?) issues that make the tweezer work a bitch, but somehow I manage to get it done. Doing 1 pad first is by far the best process I...

Anybody got a schematic of this pedal? I was given one that isn’t doing the fuzz. Probably because the “Dry” trimmer is jacked and stuck on all clean, but would like to do a more thorough investigation before just replacing the trimmer.

The paper trick didn’t really change anything on mine, but I had the correct part so meh? Listening to demos, mine sounds like those so again, meh.

I am actually using the king brite diffused as called for in the BOM, but might give the paper trick a try just to see what happens
