    ElectroVibe sounding bright

    I remember reading that the brightness of the ElectroVibe can be influenced but I don't remember what you need to change then, I think others can chime in to give you some leads so you can experiment with some changes?

    ElectroVibe sounding bright

    I just experimented a bit with a UAFX Lion 68 with the ElectroVibe Mini up front. I have different guitars with a treble bleed (HB, P90, single coils, HSS etc.) and on some I can switch the treble bleed in/out. There is a difference with the treble bleed active where it exaggerates the highs...

    ElectroVibe sounding bright

    What kinda amp/guitars are you using? Do your guitars have treble bleeds?

    ElectroVibe sounding bright

    I‘ve build the mini version with similar values. I only used 4,7M instead of 3,6M but that shouldn’t be related to the behavior you mentioned. I will validate with my build.

    ElectroVibe sounding bright

    Can you specify the values of the changes you made and where you have the pedal located in your chain? What happens when you only use the ElectroVibe on its own?

    Cheapest transistor tester (fully built, $14.27)

    I just received a 2nd LCR-T7 from AliExpress and with the latest firmware it also measures Idss and VP (mentioned as VG). The VP measurement is close to the veroboard "Greatly improved JFET matcher without opamp" I use...

    Electrovibe Mini build report

    Nice build and great sounding vibe, no need to buy one from JHS when you can build it yourself to your own liking. I had a tiny issue with a broken trace I found when measuring continuity on the PCBs. The trace between the 1n5817 and 47uf wasn’t working but when I made a small bridge from the...

    Clandestine (Chase Tone Secret) noise increases when putting on back lid

    Belated performed it and it worked. ;)

    Clandestine (Chase Tone Secret) noise increases when putting on back lid

    I’ve recently build an AION Ares and rehoused the Clandestine I build which I removed from the enclosure. I removed the zener diode as mentioned by @Robert to try, and it’s removed the static noise issues on 9v. I used the same caps as the Clandestine for the switch on the Ares (thanks @Big...

    Electrovibe Mini sourcing parts

    I’ve read that some have reported that higher gain from the 2n5088 can cause distortion or in worst case even oscillation. Higher gain is not always the problem, could also be caused by build errors (on Vero). I was merely looking at how consistent the 2n5088 are, the 450 HFE ones could work for...

    Electrovibe Mini sourcing parts

    I’ve acquired 2n5088s for an Electrovibe Mini I’m going to build. I noticed that most measure around 718 HFE but some are above 800, some are around 616 and one is 477. This was with a cheap measuring device. Does the HFE and leakage matter in this circuit? EDIT: Measured them again with my...

    Pro-10 Blue - High cut mod?

    I've instead removed the 56pf and put it on one side of a spdt and on the other side a 470pf. This helps remove some of the highs of the Pro-10 Blue which for me is on the bright side of the spectrum.

    Sandspur Fuzz - Volume Loss

    In the schematic you can see that both the bias trimpot and sundial pot influence the bias. It’s probably the most convenient to set the bias to 4,5v with the sundial pot in the middle so you can increase or decrease the voltage with the sundial.

    Do you have a simple Alpha 250kA pot to see if the wiring works then?

    And that goes to the ground of the output jack right? Just checkin. ;)

    All pots should go to ground indeed, otherwise your tone pots won’t work either.

    Sandspar Fuzz - hissing/fizzling at high fuzz levels

    you can use a lot of silicon transistors, as long as you check the pinout. I prefer BC183C

    Are you sure that lug 3 of the volume pot goes to ground? Seems like there’s no signal going to ground when reducing? Do your tone pots work well?
