Board is almost done, managed to squeeze film caps in and also keep the overall profile down to fit above the jacks. I had to stick one cap on the reverse side. Now to decide whether to use a TL074 or go with a OPA4134 (or OPA1644 with a SOIC adapter). Unsure how much it will matter on this...

On the anniversary of this idea, I have finally moved to complete it. Phase 1 is complete - Relay bypass mod set up, which fits nicely within the base of the main compartment and uses the original switch. This is a better option than my earlier plan to jam it into the battery compartment...

This was a fun build. The switches are a bit fiddly - might try traditional toggles next time. Sounds great as a DI and is amazingly diverse. Bit of noise on the high gain settings but that is to be expected. If you want to use larger box film caps, you can fit some on the underside to...

I also want to build an analog reverb unit using those Accutronics modules. Maybe a couple in stereo in a 1U rack unit, with an end-chain noise gate, compressor, EQ and sonic maximiser mashed in.

Has anyone tried UV printing on this finish? I wonder whether any fine details on the artwork will come out distorted.

I only use this supplier for LM308s now. They are good.

Nice build. My 1590B Spirit Box is one of my favourite pedals. You can also install this PCB orientated 90 degrees and then run leads to the pots - but your method is probably easier. It's a shame a lot of the boards are only 1mm away from fitting into 1590B boxes.

The angry boomer Facebook slogans were on point. I love minimal controls (if any) with internal trimpots, nice build!

Test fitting looks good so far. Should be enough clearance for the main PCB when I get it. The offboard bypass board will be interesting. A 16mm pot will fit nicely on the side in place of the EXP jack - although I will need to trim the legs back to rotate them into the recess and make sure...

Hi, I am planning a project involving trying to fit the Arachnid FV-1 PCB into a Boss enclosure. Not sure whether anyone has tried this yet and I couldn't find anything similar in the search. Basically, I had a spare PH-3 enclosure laying around and haven't built an FV-1 pedal yet - I...

You have created something truly unique, love the sounds. Congratulations!

Couple of build comparisons of my favourite ever reverb circuit:

Thanks very much everyone. It's one circuit I haven't had a lot of experience in. Appreciate the advice.

Hi, I finished building the Kliche Mini today and it's a great circuit. Something odd happened though. I boxed the circuit and set it up for final testing, having made sockets for the germanium diodes (but I FORGOT to actually add them). It not only worked, but actually sounded fine, even...

I had a couple in my IC collection for a few years. I can't find where I sourced them from, but I think it was actually an eBay seller who checked out. Be aware of fakes from China.

And a 1590B Roboto as well - this one finished in metallic flake clearcoat. Extremely fun pedal with some epic 8-bit sounds. The Arp mode is great. This is another tight build so be ready to use compact jacks and footswitch if attempting it.

Hi, several more downsized builds - this time the Greengage, Spirit Box and Roboto: The Spirit Box PCB is about 1mm too wide for the 1590B enclosure, so it had to be mounted sideways with 9mm pots (and flying leads). Bit of a headache to build in this size box but it turned out well...

I love this. You are a visionary. Thanks for the great ideas!

Hey mate, that is amazing. Did you make the PCB?

I managed to get this PCB into a 1590B with top jacks. Fantastic sound. Tayda drill template I made is here if useful to anyone: Informant 1590B drill template Note, if you try this you will need to use the same (or similar) hardware as the tolerances are slim. I used a compact 3PDT...
