I put this together and it doesn’t work. First time SMD for me, it could be a lot of things. LED doesn’t light up. No sound. I wondered if the jack needs to be stereo? Is the ring used? I only stock the mono version and I clipped the ring lead off. Shouldn’t matter since there’s an on/off...

Building kits!

Update: Tayda has shipped and expected delivery is Thursday. Hoping to ship all kits Saturday. Backstory: In the past Tayda has been very consistent to deliver 12 days after I order enclosures, which is pretty amazing coming from Bangkok, Thailand. Except this time, they informed me late last...

Our build instructions list the difficulty level as INTERMEDIATE, 3 out of 5 stars. Maybe @Robert or @keyth72 could comment on the build difficulty relative to other kits or pedals.

Production PCB's Assembled: Waiting on Tayda...:(

While we don't plan to sell the PCB by itself, if something like the above happens... yes, we would sell you a replacement at cost (mainly just shipping). Hopefully it doesn't come to that.:) This should not be your first pedal kit. But assuming you've built a couple pedals, there is nothing...

@Robert prefers 0805 size, his frequency generator kit is based on that.

Well I removed the old switch/pcb and wired a new switch in - the old fashion way. It works. I know those pcb switch boards are SO nice, doing it the old way took a long time. But I will say the amount of heat you have to put in is a lot less for a single wire than filling a PCB hole. FWIW.

I agree it seems like it's the switch. I checked the switch with a MM, seems fine in both play and bypass. Next most likely is that 3DPT board, or some of the connects between them. I used a 6 pin header. I suppose next step is to take the switch and 3DPT board out and hand wire a new one in...

So I should remove the switch and wire in a new 3PDT the old fashion way... probably. I'm not sure if the main PCB is marked.

I wondered about that. So I jumpered the top left/right pins on the switch thinking I'd create the standard bypass wiring. That didn't help. So now I'm more confused than I was.

Odd issue. Sounds great when engaged, but in bypass mode I get no sound. I *think* this is True Bypass. What would cause no sound when bypassed?

Digging around for 1/2 hour, I still can't find them for less than $1 each in bulk. Tayda is $0.55.

I’ve looked in Ali. If you could provide a link to the mono version, I’d appreciate it👍

Yeah Tayda and Amplified Parts call them panel mount, but I use them as PCB mount. I suppose either.

Production PCB's were ordered Monday, expected delivery ~July 2. This is about a week later than I had expected, but worth it. We sent out a few test kits to specific people to get feedback on the overall build experience. @Robert was one of those and gave us some great feedback. @Robert...

I've been buying these Low Profile jacks for years, love them. I didn't realize until recently there are 2 flavors: Mono and Stereo. Recently for the Q-tune project, we settled on the Mono version... because it's switched. With nothing plugged in, it will ground the input which prevents Op Amp...

Gotta (probably) be somewhere between pin2 and ground. Look at schematic. Probe voltages on good side, compare to bad side. Example: junction between pin2 and R22. Also junction between R22 and C17. Etc. I checked a lot of those resistors and they look right. Might be a bad solder joint on one...
