    Referee build (Resonant Filter Equalizer)

    I just finished this one and i think that it's sounds pretty good. It's a clone of the Broughton RFE.

    Acrobat Expression pedals?

    i believe that it should. i'm thinking about modding an expression pedal to work with it by replacing the pot with a reverse audio 100K dual pot. I believe that the Korg XVP-10 uses a dual pot but it's not a dual 100K.

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    yes, i got it working perfectly now. i replaced a 22K resistor and re-flowed a few solder connections. i now have built two of them (and i really dig 'em), and they both sound just like my original.

    Team Tubescreamer WAY overated. number 123. my favorite pedal that i use the most is my own design called the anvil: my second most used is my Origin Bassrig Super Vintage:

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    I used a Hammond 1590B2 for the enclosure. Here it is completed and working perfectly:

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    i replaced a 22K resistor and re-heated a few solder connections that probably caused it.

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    And, not to just let my first one go unfixed, i found the problem with it and fixed that one too. YAY!

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    well, i ordered another pcb and built it up since i couldn't find the problem with my first one's build. The new one is working perfectly. YAY!

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    probably the input one. like changing the 1uf to a 470nf or a 220nf.

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    yeah, i thought about that.

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    it turns out that it's actually bright enough sounding, but it has a TON of low end no matter where the tone control is set as compared to my etched PCB version: all of the values of caps are the same, but i'm thinking that it may be due to using tanalum and MLCC ceramics in places instead of...

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    just continuity checked it and it's soldered fine.

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    i built one years ago with my own etched pcb and, IMO, it sounds a lot better. i'd like to make this new pedalpcb version sound more like it. i'll have to see if i used the same component values in it, so i think that i'll have to mod it.

    Cream Pie (Frantone Cream puff) build sounds very dark

    i just finished building a Cream Pie in a 1590B with all top jacks and a relayed true bypass, and to me, it just sounds too dark, even with the tone control dimed. If it wasn't so dark sounding, i'd probably like it A LOT more.

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    i just ordered another pcb for it to see if the second build sounds like my original since this build doesn't work all that well.

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    edit: i just reflowed two solder connections that actually looked fine and reassembled it and it seems to be working much better, but still doesn't have anywhere near as powerful eq shaping as my original Stone Deaf pedal. new gut shot:

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    i did everything in this thread and mine's effect is more subtle and doesn't sound quite like my original Stone Deaf unit. i reflowed two solder connections (already looked good) and it seems to be a lot better now, but it's eq is not as deep (effective) and my original.

    Acrobat Parametric Distortion

    just finished mine. unfortunately it doesn't sound like my original Stone Deaf one. I can hear the filter but it's barely there compared to the original so i'm disappointed with it. my plus & minus control label also works in reverse of the original and the rotary switch deosn't do much at...
