    SOLVED Electrovibe Mini - LFO Not Starting

    I changed r14/15 to 4k7 but still no luck. My assumption is that C8 is the capacitor between the two 4k7 resistors in the top right of the board below the c100k pot.

    SOLVED Electrovibe Mini - LFO Not Starting

    The top board works with no issues. It's the LFO that doesn't start. I can always desolder the 2.2uF and 1.5k resistors and switch to the 1u and 4k7 resistors but I would like to have a little more depth at slow speeds.

    SOLVED Electrovibe Mini - LFO Not Starting

    I am currently wrapping up an ElectrVibe Mini build and ran into the problem with the LFO not starting up. I can manually cause the bulb to increase in intensity via the gain and bias knobs and hear a change in the tone (as you'd expect in a Vibe), so I know the rest of the circuit works. It is...

    Thanks! Everyone has to got to live with my ability to basically play the same few chords over and over again.. maybe next time it'll be Rock You Like a Hurricane. :)

    DEMO Naegele Polaris [Sputnik 2]

    A really great build. I built two of them. One for me and one for a friend. I didn't deviate from @PedalBuilder 's design because I thought it was really awesome -- all I did was tweak the colors and gains on Q1, 2, and 3. They are both using the highest gain GT310b transistors that I had, so in...

    Seabed Delay

    Very cool build and it sounds like you learned a lot! Unfortunately, a lot of pedals are just noisy because of the limitations of the components they're built on and it just becomes part of their charm. For truly silent and clean operation you'll probably have to move to DSP chips but then you...

    SOLVED DIY Dual State Relay issue

    So, you've now entered the world of embedded systems. :) Are you sure it isn't the code you're running in the ATtiny85?

    Boutique Pedal Manufacturers Are Feeling the Tariff Pinch

    While I feel you reap what you sow, it's sad when others get caught up in the results. That being said, many American businesses have been short sighted and we've been in a long decline for any type of physical manufacturing. Relocating manufacturing plants, fabs, and knowledge overseas for...

    Question About Selling

    Having started down this path about a year ago your rules are spot on. A few other quirks / behaviors I've noticed are: 1. Tons of folks who say they will buy it but then don't show up when it is offered for sale. 2. Folks buy to a price point not quality -- even if they say they want quality...

    OTHER Drill PSA save yourself some money

    So, as someone who is starting down the path of building these.. do you have the drill templates for them you'd be willing to share? 😁

    DEMO Ouroboros — Tap Tempo Wah Delay

    Even if the tube screamer gain stage output drives an envelope filter that controls the tap tempo on the connected delay? It sounds like I have a new thing to do...

    Moon Master (Super Heterodyne Receiver)

    This is a pedal I want to like but, it just doesn't do too much for me. However, the pedal itself just screamed Mooninites so I went with that as the theme. I even made sure to name the controls in a condescending Mooninites manner. I enjoyed the building of the pedal and the designing but when...

    DEMO AionFX Xenotron (Lovetone ? Flange with No Name)

    Got it! I've noticed their drill templates are a bit tight on some of their builds and require specific jacks, etc to actually fit.

    DEMO AionFX Xenotron (Lovetone ? Flange with No Name)

    Nice build! I've got this and the other crazy lovetone pedals from Aion sitting in my backlog and just can't bring myself to start on them...

    Egregiously Expensive Cruch - Custom Cornish CC-1 Clone, take 3

    Don't tempt me. It sounds like a Neil Young and Crazy Horse themed pedal to me: Arc Weld Fuzz.

    Egregiously Expensive Cruch - Custom Cornish CC-1 Clone, take 3

    I'm going to have to switch to these, I was using VP3203N3-G in a TO-92-3 package and they're more than double the cost of the IRFU5305PBF. And awesome work!
