Is there a drill template for the XS Drive (Xotic SL Drive)? I've been searching the forum and can't find anything. Can we just like use the hydra for the toggle locations, then use a 3knob template for the knobs?

Ya I've used this before, but I guess I'm asking so I can figure it out if it doesn't fit into any of those topologies

Noob question. How can i calculate the range of frequencies that various EQ knobs (Treble, bass, tone, etc) hit. I know the frequency cutoff formula in a vacuum, but not in the context of a pedal. I have a friend asking about the Chela (Talons). I know you can usually just increase or decrease...

Seems like they're sold out at Tayda, PedalHacker, and Small Bear Looks like we're mainly stuck with D9E and 1N270 (for a $$$) at GuitarPCB

Double checked the Julia and it clarifies that the 9V1 zener is 1/2W. So looks like it's not every doc, just some. And my understanding is wattage is important on zeners, not like wattage on resistors where we can get away with any value.

Not in this case or any zener I've seen on PedalPCB.................. Looks like it's only on certain docs. Julia has the wattage noted

Just discovering this thread. How do you know whether to use a 1W (1N4734) vs 1/2W (1N5232B). I guess in this build or others. Thanks!

Hey ya'll. I was building a ghost echo when I wanted to try a simple mod I've seen elsewhere. Here it talks about using the unused Belton Brick output (Pin 5) and connecting it to the input for oscillation. http://pedalparts.co.uk/docs/VerbEngine.pdf I assumed you would be able to do the same...

tight

Looking at the board again. I want to say it was one of the 1u MLCC near the PT2399 I put 1n instead (or vice versa)

I wish I could remember which resistor/cap it was. But I had this happen to me as well. I ended up accidently using like a 100n cap instead of the required 100p. Very similar symptoms

Something else to try: I had this exact same thing happen to a friend I built one for. I was made aware that bad BS170s sometimes don't crap out until ~10+ hours of usage. So my during my tests it was fine, but after a week or 2 of usage the boost was doing the exact same thing you mention...

I mean compared to Aion, PCB Mania, FuzzDog, etc it's like night and day. Every time I have to use someone else's boards I get so annoyed having to connect all the ground connections to each other with only one hole on the pcb just to name 1 thing. I don't know much about laying out PCBs, but it...

I would like to put it out there that I would love to see PedalPCB do one of these. I built one myself and it rules. EAE is pretty regularly out of their boards and I'm spoiled by your better layouts (specifically the offboard wiring pads)

I am now officially beckoning the patron saint of troubleshooting @Chuck D. Bones 🙏

Bump?

Hey everyone. I've yet to have a PLL pedal work properly. They never seem to quite have the same amount of sustain as the demos I see online. At this point I've probably built 150+ pedals and the only ones that don't work properly are DBA ones that have hard to source parts (looking at you Robot...

He lives in a different state...So I'm trying to do as much troubleshooting as possible remotely before I have to get him to send it in.

Hey everyone. I built this pedal for a friend. It's been working great for like a month. Never gigged with or left his bedroom. Now when you engage the boost, with the knob at max you can barely hear the sound. It doesn't cut out it, just gets super quiet. I can't see any potential shorts/metal...
