    Dumb question- dual effects loop switch

    I should also have read my post a little better before pressing send..... There is only a single "input" and "output" , so those uses I mentioned above were one at a time.. lol it's been a long day already, been up since 3:30 a.m....... But you get the idea. lol I am building another, so one...

    Dumb question- dual effects loop switch

    I built one of these as well to test various loopabilities (see what I did there? :-) ) I have so far done the following: Used Loop A to bring a Chorus, Phaser and reverb in and out of the FX loop with a single stomp, and Loop B to bring an OD / Distortion in and out of the front of the amp. The...

    Important: Dust Covers for 16mm Potentiometers!

    I've always been the guy that says Condoms removes all the feel.... Who needs condoms! Also, all my pedals are infected, so now I use them religiously.. lol I had the literal ONE time I didn't use a dust capped POT cause a short due to clearance issues when I built the UberDrive... I was like...

    Blue Shoe Gai Pan Distortion

    So I finally got some time this weekend to fool around with the JFET bias on this build. At first I calculated the output voltage coming from my Charge pump. What I was seeing was 17.6v total output, so 8.80v was the split. I biased the JFETS @8.80 volts, and it sounded "ok" but had SERIOUS mud...

    OC139 NPN Transistors, for FREE?

    I have never used / heard of one, but sure, I am up for it! @JamieJ said he found some local for cheap, so if you want to trade, that is cool with me!

    OC139 NPN Transistors, for FREE?

    Are you sure? I don't mind helping out, but if you can get them at that rate, that is way less than shipping costs for me. Just let me know! If so, then there is still 1 available for whoever wants it

    OC139 NPN Transistors, for FREE?

    I will have to see what USPS mail to the UK would cost, but that would be fine by me as long as it's not over $10 (which I don't think it would be). I ship things to the UK quite a bit, but usually what I send it larger items and expensive.. I don't think this will be too bad though! Please go...

    OC139 NPN Transistors, for FREE?

    You have claimed 1 of the 2, just send me your shipping details in a DM on here, and when I get them (should be today or tomorrow) I will send it right out!

    OC139 NPN Transistors, for FREE?

    In my quest to build an AFT preamp pedal (I was really intrigued by this and the sound samples I heard!), I scoured the internet looking for OC139 Transistors. Most of what I found, was in the UK, until low and behold I found a decent haul of them, and bought them. I don't have a ton of them...

    LM4558 vs. RC / JRC4558

    Thank you for your answers! I was thinking it would be ok to sub in the other 4558's, but I wasn't sure with the nature of the muffler / noise gates, if there would be any issues in doing so. The more I get into this with your help, the more I understand. I LOVE learning all this stuff. I plan...

    LM4558 vs. RC / JRC4558

    I searched and couldn't find an exact answer, and I apologize in advance for what is probably a stupid question, but here goes. I am building the Muffler Noise gate, and it calls for an LM4558. NOBODY has them in stock anywhere I have looked (I could also be blind, as I have scoured the...

    When I first learned about the Klon circuit, I of course was just beginning building and had no clue. I knew though later that the low Vf didn't always mean hot gain, and it was through pain and suffering that I found that out. lol I did just learn from you though that the Klon has gain AFTER...

    I love this place, and the knowledge shared here. It's the first forum I felt like I could ask questions, and not be ridiculed for doing so. I appreciate your time and effort in answering my questions, and bringing things to light! Yes, most of the diodes I used on that circuit for the 808 were...

    I did indeed follow the independent boost, which is a great feature. I love the idea of being able to boost other drives without NEEDING this one of the active, but also being able to activate it with this pedal as well. This things sounds pretty mean, and I love it. It has definite dynamics...

    Awesome, thank you for that! I was wondering if that one LED may have been for a boost stage or something, but that makes more sense. I was trying to figure out the schematic (I am not the GREATEST yet at reading them, but can manage slightly haha) to see the stages, but got lost quickly. I...

    @music6000 , excellent build! I just finished building this pedal, and I have a question for you (or anyone else who can chime in). When looking at the PCB during the testing phase (after completing the build), I wanted to watch the Clipping LED's light up. I switched to that mode, and as I...

    Mofeta Pre Amp Mockup Pedal - ARRIVED!

    Correct me if I am wrong, the 5457's are tighter, and brighter sounding than the J201's, right? But otherwise a perfect replacement for J201's?

    Mofeta Pre Amp Mockup Pedal - ARRIVED!

    As soon as the PCB being in stock sent me an alert, I ordered WITHOUT hesitation! Can't wait to get this together. These mock ups look awesome! @PedalPCB I didn't see the build docs yet, but wanted to know what POTS I needed for this build. I have pretty much every DIODE, transistor, and...

    Blue Shoe Gai Pan Distortion

    Did you ever try a different BIAS voltage? What did you think if you did? I just built mine, and at first I screwed up with the BIAS. Instead of reference ground in the circuit for setting the drain, I used the 3rd leg as a grounding point. The results were terrible. However, when using the...

    What jacks to use for dual effects loop switch?

    Looks great! Just to verify, since there aren't docs yet. Looking top down, from right to left is it: Input, Send, Return, Send, return, output?
