Digging into memory, I would say that there are about 1-3 pads with the problem. But I thought all ground ones go to the plane and have the thermal narrow connection to the plane. So I would have expected either all or none of the pads goint to ground exhibit the same effect/issue. This subset...

Wouldn't the all pads that go to ground plane show the same issue?

Thanks, How did you manage in the end, or what did you do? Mine look a bit dodgy, but before I cut a leg/pin (not on solder or pad) I use connectivity buzzer to see if the leg reaches next points in the schematic. Not sure if this is proof of a working/good even, solder point, but I hope it...

What type of solder and temperature do you typically use?

Thanks, I could prewash in Isopropynol as well, although it feels that over time I can narrow it down to the initial description.

Have you always made the pedalpcb pcb ones that way? Or are there older releases out there without the ground plane?

Probably not as cool since yours keep heat better...😉

Thanks! Well, leaded solder is not easy to buy unless you run your own business (solder related) in Sweden or most of Europe... I have some that is double as thick (1mm) as my usual that I could try using when ground pads are in the mix. My station is a 100 Usd level. Ish. So probably not the...

Thanks, good points! Also diodes like 1N5817 and 1N400x with thick legs usually want "more".

Thanks Robert! Some ground pads worked out fine, but I can tell there is a difference between them and non ground pads. The marked ones is where I struggled most. Although one is equally strange a non-ground pad. What does the thermal relief mean/how does it effect the soldering? I have leaded...

I forgot to mention that all soldered points do check out in connectivity tests between its leg and the points it goes to in the schematic, so electrically it is probably ok.

I just soldered the components to Karaoke and Celsius boards for making a Boss CE-1 with the preamp clone (-ish). I strikes me that the Karaoke PCB from Lectric-FX was quite easy to solder the components to. I find the same for Aion FX PCBs as well. I use a station with about 380 deg C ("716...

Thanks a lot! Yes, that reminds me of how it was done for the duo-phase.

I guess I could also use 4 jacks and jumper as needed to change order. But I guess I will be using pre as pre...

Many thanks! I am thinking pre into chorus. But independent.

Any hints on how to connect them? In, out for the two parts? Tried to look at your pictures in your build report, but some wires are obscured by the pcbs.

Thanks! Yes that might work with some tight ledleg bending.

I thought you and others got water clear ones, and temp fixed with paper, thus making the clear more diffuse. I haven't started building yet. Prefer to know the "right" led before soldering. If possible. To avoid having to swap leds until the pads gice up...

Merci beaucpup! I mailed him, let's see if he remembers the problem.

Thanks. Ok, but wasn't your first a clear one? And a piece of paper would be enough to diffuse it? Thus, the replacement oughtbto be "more diffuse than glass clear"?
