Hey guys! I’m about to dig into a cliche mini. I’ve been building for a year and haven’t built a Klone. Crazy right? haha. Anyways I see it calls for this zener 1N4742 Zener diode, 12V 1W DO-41 I ended up ordering 1N5242 12v 1/2 watt Zener instead. I don’t see a problem subbing these. Do you...

Hey guys, hope you are all well. I built a deep blue delay for somebody with a momentary oscillation stomp and they really liked it. They asked me if I could add tone control to the repeats / the feedback loop. I’m still learning and can’t really visualize how to go about this. Wondering if...

Thank you 👍

Cool! Thanks so much. And thanks for your awesome pcbs.

Hey guys. I want to build a kliche (klone) but I don’t have the 12v 1 watt Zener called for. I do have some 9.1v Zener. I believe it’s limiting the voltage reaching the charge pump. So couldn’t I just use my 9.1v? I saw on another forum that you probably can. But I trust you guys here so any...

No promises 😆

Thanks dude.

Yeah I might do that. But like you I’m lazy sometimes haha. To be honest I’ve never detected a difference when swapping slightly different ceramics. Maybe just lucky.

Good plan. I just restocked on sockets 👍

My guess was a sort of fizz killer capacitor. Thanks man.

Hey guys. Im going to get into a Thermionic distortion pcb today…. My problem is I don’t have a 120p ceramic. I do have 100p and 150p. Do you think it would cause a hugely noticeable difference? My instinct says no…. But I haven’t checked the schematic. Thanks.

Almost always man. Haha…. Happy New Years.

I’m embarrassed to admit…. It was in wrong lol. Lack of sleep today… I shouldn’t have a soldering iron in my hand. But thanks for humouring me.

It is a pcb mounted pot. That’s why it’s so weird. Because there is no way I could “wire” it wrong. I was almost thinking it might be by design but no….

Hey guys. I build the new rangefinder. I got it to bias to 7.2v on the emitter. I used a Soviet transistor and it drives my Vox hard. Sounds good so far. My problem is that the 10k volume pot is working in reverse. I can’t for the life of me figure out why. If it was for me I might just deal...

Thanks man! Yeah I did the same mod without a trimmer on a deep blue delay and if doesn’t pop. This one is different so maybe I’ll try the trimmer…. See what it gets me.

Hey guys. You’ve been so much help lately! I’m experimenting with a momentary oscillation switch on the dark rift delay. I wired it the same as I did on deep blue delay. Lug 3 of the repeat pot, to lug three on level pot. It works. The thing I can’t stand is there is a pop when the connection is...

I tested holding the wires. I forget the result of touching the other side of the resistor. Now I’m curious if it’s right. It sounds fantastic so I assume so. Thanks again.

Well. I’m just not used to such large schematics all broken up into sections. Once you pointed me in the right direction though I was all set. I found there was no continuity between C10 (1U) and R10 (1k) …. I reflowed the solder but that didn’t work. So I ran a wire from the right side of C10...

Thanks! I’ll try in a while. The schematic is confusing me though….. cheers
