That doesn't sound like a power supply issue, that sounds like a short in the board that is letting current cook everything. I can't walk you through specifics, but here is what my process would be: 1. Visual inspection. Look at every joint to see if there is a unwanted connection (I once...

Correct. For example, the picture in the Aurum document is the typical way that pedalpcb shows the footswitch wiring.

Welcome to the forum. For a first build, I would avoid: 1. Soldering an FV-1 chip 2. Very crowded boards (until you get used to soldering in tight places). Compare the Hyped Fuzz with its packed board of 1/8th watt resistors compared to the Aurum. 3. Very large circuits with high part count...

Does the LED light up?

My Mystic board worked: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/pcbguitarmania-black-mystic.9712/ I haven’t built their Pharaoh, but double check the build documents for the cap values. A lot of the internet has wrong info. Check my post in this thread regarding 47n, 470n, and 470p...

There are a bunch of confirmed build reports. Do you have pictures of your board to help with troubleshooting? Thread 'Important: Supplying Pictures when an Issue arises with a PCB Build !!!'...

Chuck’s posts in this thread may be interesting to you regarding the 12 dB knob and Q. He posted a freq response graph: Thread 'Catalinbread varioboost' https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/catalinbread-varioboost.6833/

There are a bunch of different ways. I would just build each circuit on the same board (they can share the power and ground), and then jumper the output of one into the input of the other. And then just move the jumper and the breadboard in & out to reverse the order. Both of my breadboards...

Do you mean this: https://tagboardeffects.blogspot.com/2014/09/test-box-20.html?m=1 Or this: https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/protoboard/ I built the box in the first link and stuck it on a piece of scrap wooden shelving. The fastened a piece of angle iron to hold pots. There’s a good view...

I made a wishlist thread and including the links to the build docs and schematics. Thread 'Grind Customs Ultrastoner' https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/grind-customs-ultrastoner.14705/

Welcome! @BuddytheReow has put A LOT of good info in the test kitchen forum. Especially since you are already breadboarding, you can jump right in to a lot of his circuit breakdowns.

This quote, I couldn’t find any Grind pcbs or clones.

You mentioned boards. Did you find a source? I cobbled mine together onto an AionFX Osiris.

It’s my favorite BMP. I think that paint job looks awesome! Did you spray clear on top?

I just checked my board, @Nic is correct.

I see multiple kinds of footswitches at Tayda. Which one did you see as sold out? https://www.taydaelectronics.com/electromechanical/switches-key-pad/stomp-switch/3pdt-stomp-foot-pedal-switch-fk-series-on-on.html Tayda has 560k resistors, I would use those. Or put two resistors in series that...

Maybe he gooped it! Edit: Too late, no goop!

Hmm. I guess in all cases, the LED resistor is assuming 9V. So you may want to increase the resistor to drop the LED brightness. If I’m doing the math correctly, it would need to be a little more than double to keep the same brightness.

I did this with the Powersound Overdrive. I tweaked the filtering as discussed here: Thread 'Am I correct on: How to remove a charge pump?' https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/am-i-correct-on-how-to-remove-a-charge-pump.8833/ The only issue I can think of is if the pedal has some parts of the...
