I was already excited about this before. Awesome!

That's fine. If I were to do it over again, I would use a very different circuit, though. Adding a clean blend needs to be considered on a pedal-by-pedal basis because a lot of circuits flip the phase.

Got my BBDs today in the GPCB sale. I'm ready.

I'm surprised I've never seen anyone do a dedicated isolated pedalboard output module.

Man, I looked and didn't see that.

Same here! Just ordered myself a compact reverb. Free shipping and with the discount, it's less than buying a used one on Reverb.

10 votes on the wish list guys. We can do better. Remember, the voting is done on the top right area of the post, not the normal "LIKE" for a forum post.

The Wish List request is now live and you men all need to do your solemn duty and go vote the hell out of it.

Nope. First starting out they sold a PCB for DIY reverb. Still using mine as an always-on effect. Tempted to just buy their new reverb mini.

Was looking around on Freestomp forum and found some links to threads at Musikding (in German) where people are breaking down the Surfy Industries Vibrato and Tremolo pedals and they're pretty interesting designs. (Links go through Google Translate) The Vibrato tries to emulate Magnatone but...

Pic is gone. Whaddid I miss?

1182s I got were all very leaky. At this point, finding enough non-leaky Ge diodes will take a lot of time and money, ordering tons of different diodes and testing them all. The solution is a BAT54s diode with a series 68R resistor. I've A/B tested this and it works and sounds identical to...

Did my own layout for the Pink/Purple fuzz and it originally called it 'Brown Bear' until I happened upon a video about all-black chickens from Indonesia called Ayam Cemani. Highly prized, they're called the 'Lamborghini of chickens.' I think the double entendre is hilarious. My wife is...

Runoffgroove introduced a design in 2012 called the Azabache that's sorely overlooked. It's a great OD that broke some conventions at the time by using JFETs as 'clean' amplifiers, diodes for clipping and tacking on a primitive cab sim at the end. Subsequent designs from them built on this, but...

@vigilante398 , are you still populating your PCBs yourself or using pick&place service?

It's a lot more work, but you can get fancy with multiple colors and glittery paint.

It's a "reverse-etch" material, so you engrave an image on the back and fill it with white paint. Instead of paint, I use white stickers where the LEDs go so they shine through. Takes about 10 minutes to cut a faceplate. Wash the powder off. Then rub some white correction fluid in the...

Beamo. I had been using a Glowforge at the Makerspace and got cut off from access for much of the pandemic. The Beamo software is much easier to use IMHO. In addition to faceplates, I really enjoy making my own custom tools and drill guides, etc.
