That is freakin rad

Finished up (mostly) a Sludgehammer build today. I’m working on putting together a bass pedalboard and wanted some kind of ampsim/DI solution. It’s getting partnered with Chuck’s Bass Klon, Broughton HLPF (Frequency Interchange), an M9, and an old mini rat clone I’ve had kicking around. Should...

I would echo some of the same - I don't actually have many (if any) problems with the drilling itself at all. But using a spring-loaded center punch has made the last few chip BAD. I mean like, little chips of the powdercoat noticeably flying off the enclosure with force :P And beyond that as...

I don't purchase enclosures at nearly the volume of some others here, but personally speaking I feel like while some of the metallic finishes have always been a little fragile, it's seemed to me like across the board Tayda's enclosures have just been a bit more flimsy when it comes to their...

Quite interested in how you went about that finishing process (as I fully intend to steal it, tbh :P) Did the miracle-gro application go on the whole enclosure? It looks like the aluminum has a bit of corrosion too. Anything to "seal" it or does copper shielding tape just stick and stay put to...

Nothing too groundbreaking to report, but… I went ahead and swapped all the Strymon big boxes to true bypass mode. As I understand it buffered bypass is required for “trails” but I don’t find myself needing to switch off my delay/reverb and have trails persist enough that would require this…...

Definitely a noticeable difference. Plugging straight in is just fine, exactly as I would expect/want to hear...once everything else is added in - even bypassed - it's just a lot more brittle feeling. Straight into the amp (well, Amp sim - I use an Iridium) has a little bit of compression of its...

I, like many others (I suspect) have had a bit of a complicated relationship with buffers and/or buffered bypass pedals. I spent a long time believing the school of thought that says "True Bypass or Die" and then swung the other direction and said "High quality buffers are good and can only...

I think you are probably right about that, makes sense the more I think about it....But i am still perplexed as to why neither pedal would work if the "sides" were flipped...

Hi all, a bit of a strange issue here. I assume it is something with my buffer's ground wiring, but I am not totally sure... I'm getting power from a Truetone CS7. All of the ports on it are tested and working properly on their own. I have one of the ports with a splitter cable plugged into it...

Looks like build doc has R1 as 1k

I can’t really decide… I think I like #1 better in general but #2 seems a better “thematic” fit for this particular pedal… #2 also gives me a bit of a Junji Ito/Uzumaki vibe… or maybe Bayonetta lol

I’ve owned a handful of Bluesbreaker variants (both “real” and PedalPCB builds). Off the top of my head, King of Tone/paragon/mini Prince of Tone/pauper Morning Glory/glory hole Snouse Blackbox 2 Pro-10 (full and blue side) I’ve settled on the Pro-10 full for the time being but of course if...

This is perfect!!! I’ve been meaning to look more into this and was actually just about to make a thread yesterday asking if anyone knew of any good tutorials before I got sidetracked. Exactly what I needed. Thank you!!!

My pedalboard positively has NO space for this guy and I'm not sure I "need" it but boy do I wanna make one... ...I am in the process of getting ready to start on a bass board, though...

Perhaps the crummiest build report you'll ever see, but here it is. I only happened to snap one pic, but I'm bored at work so figured I'd post nonetheless. How did we get here? Well, it starts with a Katana boost.... I ordered one with the intention of putting it in a 1590B...

Yep, as above - you can just see where the sleeve (ground) is connected to its respective lug. With TRS plugs, generally speaking the lug will be directly across from the corresponding plug/contact. You already know which one the sleeve is, so the tallest contact (tip) will have the tip lug...

Same in Safari for me - 16.2 beta but has been for a while now. As above - click the search box, rotate your screen to landscape orientation, then back to portrait and it should force the search bar to appear....

Hi all - hoping you can help me on my comp-quest. I’ve been on the hunt for a compressor with a couple different settings. I typically use a very light amount of compression always-on. Right now that’s by way of a Diamond comp. But I also like a more pronounced/squashed compression for...

Same case for me. Really had been excited to try, wanted to like it, but just not for me. I double- and triple-checked the bias and it’s bang on where it’s supposed to be but I don’t know… it feels really “brittle” or “stiff” to me. Maybe something else is wrong but otherwise I’m not a huge fan...
