    Pcbguitarmania Flaming Space Ring

    @Mentaltossflycoon i finished building my board and I noticed that the wormhole pot is giving an audible effect only in the last 15% of the rotation, is yours working this way as well? I'm asking because I also have some nasty ticking and whining when the pedal is bypassed so I also have to...

    What made you a good guitar player?

    I think I have a good sense of rhythm and a good ear it I absolutely lack in technique and especially theory... Is it too late to start studying something in my late 30s? I have always played by ear but it is starting to feel restricting I just want to learn some basics of theory to understand...

    Get to the Choppa! - Chop Shop

    I looooove my Chop Shop, lots of great sounds inside. I love to play with the dynamics. I almost never turn it off I did have to add a 10k resistor on the output as a pulldown resistor because it was popping, and I had to bias it around 6.5v to solve some oscillation

    Fancy Solder Sucker

    I spent a couple of hours yesterday doing the same thing, salvaged everything from a Guitar mania PCB, even sockets, using my Engineer solder pump

    Lightburn and a laser engraver question

    Did you end up getting it? My wife is looking at a xtool D1 I think, so I could actually put some artwork on my pedals 😅

    Polarity protection diode substitution

    I'll take another look inside Even without powering the circuit? I want to check with my little practice amp and with a buffer upfront Quick question, the diode I added on the 9v is protecting the polarity but on the + instead of the ground right? Yeah looking at the layout and at the schem...

    Polarity protection diode substitution

    Thanks, it works but... If I leave it plugged in with no power and activate it, for some reason some signal passes through, and it sounds like a very voltage starved distortion... Where is power coming from if it's not connected? Through the guitar cables?

    Polarity protection diode substitution

    It does go to ground I'm following this Effectslayout schematic: So I could add a 1n914 between +9v and the + of the DC jack?

    Polarity protection diode substitution

    I was trying to desolder components from my old Speaker Cranker perfboard build and I broke the 1n4001 polarity protection diode in half I only have 1n914s at the moment, can I use one of those? Or can I just jumper it since I will be using it with my power supply?

    I just saw the Collector/emitter demo... Dang that's a good sounding muff 🤤

    Aion PCB's

    I too am always looking for something like this, especially for new circuits. I was looking for a Big Muff with mids control to maybe replace my Deluxe Sovtek BM and if it wasn't for it being mentioned in this thread, I wouldn't know that PCB was one

    Help identifying resistor

    Yes I definitely need a better one, this one can't even check for continuity It does measure HFE though

    Help identifying resistor

    Thanks, I did look into one of those but I didn't know which way to start reading the strips (first time dealing with 0.4w resistors), and one of the red ones looked like purple to me under direct light. In the picture it looks red

    Help identifying resistor

    My crappy multimeter only goes up to 2000k so I can't test if these are actually 2.2m resistors Is the colour code correct?

    Low Tide Modulator Firmware/IC

    I am sure Klaus from musikding will send you the replacement, it might take a while to get an answer but so far I've only had good experience with musikding I bought a Sea Horse kit and it was missing some capacitors, I sent them an email and a week later I had them in the mail

    Sea Horse Mods

    I'm interested in these two mods since I just built my Sea Horse and I'm very happy with it, but I just wish the Rate knob had more ausable "slow" range. Would this rate mod help it? And the feedback mod is for sending the pedal into feedback or to limit the signal when in feedback? Because my...

    SOLVED Chop shop popping when activated + squealing even in bypass

    ah yes thanks, got it. In the end I added it on the 3pdt but on the pcb would've been wiser I did try it when I first built it but it didn't change the pop unfortunately

    SOLVED Chop shop popping when activated + squealing even in bypass

    That was it. Thanks a lot! I don't know why I didn't think about it, since it's the same thing I did to get rid of the pop in my EHX Bad Stone
