Hi thanks for your reply! I made sure that all caps were 35 (I think most of mine were 50v or so.) All pots are insulated. I don’t have any other transistors on hand except some 2N2222s. They had the same issue. I’ll also order some more charge pump ICs in case that’s the issue.

Hey all just finished the new version of the simulcast. When engaged all knobs affect the sound, however the sound is weak in all three modes, a tiny bit of drive, not much increase in volume. When I first plug it in to the power it sounds how it is meant to for two seconds then it fades back...

Hi just wondering how you solved this issue. I’m getting similar behavior! weirdly the pedal is really loud and fuzzy when I first plug it in then it drops after a few seconds

:D just switched the chip out and VOILA! Must have had a dud. Thanks all!

Hey all! Ive gone over the circuit, all looks ok. When engaged, all pots have an effect, however there is an extreme volume drop when engaged, even with the level control at maximum. Any tips on where to begin?

I appreciate that! It’s extra painful because I thought this one was ok. I’m gonna get some measurements and report back

I might also try switching out the chip.

Thanks for the help! I have continuity. I’ll check for resistance tonight. It’s a strange one. I’m perplexed how it could function perfectly and then just stop. Also the volume pot works (even though the pedal is much quieter overall than when bypassed) and only a few of the EQ adjustments seem...

Hello all I built an Equilux a few weeks ago. It worked great at first but I just tried it again today and it’s passing signal but it’s super quiet. Many of the controls also have no effect. One of the rotary switches bumps it to normal volume when I hold the switch between settings. I’m...

Perfect! Many thanks

One more question (gosh I hate this layout) I’m confused as to which pads connect to the power supply. Are both pads circled in yellow positive? And are both pads circled in green negative? Or is one pad positive in the yellow circle and and one negative? The PCB is different to the build guide! 🤔

Thanks so very much!!

It’s missing from the build docs. This build makes me really really appreciate pedal Pcb and the layouts here

Could someone who has built the paramix please tell me if the phase switch is an on/off or on/off/on?

Thank you for the template! The pedal is really great by the way, I need to play around with it more to get a sense of settings but so far so good!

OK all! Happy to report the layout is good. Only things I adjusted was the holes for the rotary switches needed to be bigger (got mine from here) and I needed to enlarge the LED hole for a mounting bevel. Apart from that it was perfect for my needs!

Thanks for your replies! So relieved I don’t have to desolder those

Quick question- are the rotary switches meant to be oriented a certain way? I just put the 1 in the same place for all three. Hoping that’s ok!!

Thank you for the info! I decided to just be patient and wait for the part to arrive.
