    Reactor - strong oscillation

    Is there a way to check where the oscillation is comming from? I mean I started cutting the long input trace and wired the jack direktly to the input but unfortutelly that was not the issue :-)

    Chalumeau

    The chalumeau of the guitar world. I made an attempt to make the pedal switchable without the fuzz. I was only partially successful. I may have to solder a pull-down resistor to the input, I think I read about it somewhere. Pin 1 and 8 of LM386 have been bent up/broken off and are connected via...

    Reactor - strong oscillation

    A picture but you cant really see something The parts all have the correct value. It is working except for the oscillation. The traces are ok. Some caps melted while I replaced some parts. LEDs missing. Maybe the layout in general is the problem.

    Reactor - strong oscillation

    Ok I forgot to add some files. It's not on strip board it's a produced pcb. Dumb as I am I use new circuits and put them in projects... The difference to the original version is that I hooked it to one supply with two other effects and added a 100n to each IC. My schematic is attached and this...

    Reactor - strong oscillation

    Hi everyone, I wanted to ask the collective intelligence in here to help me with a pedal. On FSB there is a new Baja Reactor V5 which I put in a combo pedal consisting of Reactor, Unicab and a Headphone amp. https://www.freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php?p=300036#p300036 The reactor is causing...

    How do you typically Clean flux from PCB

    I had this on areas where no solder tip touched the silk screen. Maybe the toothbrush wasn't that soft...

    How do you typically Clean flux from PCB

    I did not do it for years then I tried it a few times with isopropyl alcohol 99,9% and a soft toothbrush but it turned out that I scratched the silkscreen somehow.... So I will not do it anymore :-)

    Soda Master (Fuzzdog Vintage Soda)

    Nice work! Do you use the chaos mode often? I skipped it in my Super Soda Meiser but added a drone knob which I never use :LOL:

    Help with Chinese J201 FETs

    If you got them cheap they are probably fakes. I bought a bag a few years ago and they were fake transistors. Cant bias them correctly. Source and drain should be interchangeable. Measure them Thread 'Half my J201s are bad?' https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/half-my-j201s-are-bad.18481/

    Has anyone built an Arduino Oscilloscope?

    Don’t waste money for a diy scopes. If you want to use it for other stuff than a pedal you will spend more money another one. To learn how it works it’s fine but fiddling around with the small controls is annoying. At least get a FNIRSI DPOX180H if you don’t want to use a pc with a pico scope...

    Attenuator + Power amp project?

    Like this? Unfortunatelly discontinued. It was super cheap and not worth to copy. I paid 55€ on sale but regular it was not more than 100€ I think.

    Mu-Tron Octave Divider

    Thanks. I have to admint that it is not that perfect as the traces are not ideal in terms of crosstalk if that's correct. I can hear the ringer all the time when I use my headphone amplifier. Next time I can turn up the amp I will check there. Monetary concerns :-) I have multiple projects that...

    Mu-Tron Octave Divider

    Based on the fine BYOC schematics I built a Mu-Tron Octave Divider. The only thing that bothered me was the bass being low in volume. In this forum I found the R16/17 mod. Other than that the stock values are just fine (in my opinion). Because of the squeezed parts one knob is almost touching...

    Storage Questions

    I stopped using a "project box" and "maybe later box" and all the single resistor bags. Finaly I found time to get some card protector sheets and put all the resistors in a ring binder. It's also nice for diodes. This is so relieving.... Caps are in 3d printed boxes. ICs, Transistors and all...

    Warden (Delegate Boneyard Edition) strange behavior on bass

    You could also put s piece of paper between the LED and the LDR. Xenotron hack:-)

    You could copy the Moore Spark series. Unfortunately I cant find schematics or even gutshots...
