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

Whether it's certain hfe range, leakage, or a combo of both? Obviously PNP vs NPN. I'd imagine you'd want to do it by common hfe ranges for vintage fuzzes, then maybe sub organize by leakage?

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!

I would love to contribute is any way I can. I have a help desk job with a ton of downtime and sadly can't exactly build pedals at my desk. Logistical nightmare aside of coordinating something that is community sourced. I like the idea of a new message board section. Would add minimal burden to...

Good god, tell me about TL072s. I was looking at old pricing sheets i made and i cried a little bit when I saw that they used to be only like 26 cents are now are like $2. And holy shit I had no idea about adding bias voltages to the PCB, that's great! I've built so many fuzzes at this point I...

Sorry, it's based on number of posts. We can't all respond to every thread "did you make sure to re-flow all your joints"

Is there something that was worded weird?

Well I was going to say 'Great to Awesome', but i couldn't give up the alliteration. Fuck me I guess though. The response from PedalPCB is great and well appreciated. Most of the rest of you are WAY too defensive about a suggestions post, christ. As a small business owner I welcome anything like...

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...

Yep I was about to say those 1900H ones are the only ones I have issues with. The screws in least 20-30% just spin and spin but never grab anything

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...
