I’m now co-opting the phrase: “and adopted a method to adjust how much signal is sent” whenever I install a potentiometer to shunt signal to ground.

Great first build. /hides first build as it looked like a person with two left hands put it together, though it worked

I think a business card is about .25mm. Maybe? Remember it’s a general guideline.

Whomstve of us doesn’t want retinal damage from the ultra-bright UV LEDs?

A quick peek at the schematic shows it’s basically a fuzz face. Which means you probably should have Q2 about 4.5V?

Glow in the dark washers. Interesting. /writes down a note

Rob Robinette’s EF80 (edit: not ef90) 2W output with little pentodes have had good reviews. Is it going to flap your stick shorts in the breeze like a 30-50W PP EL34? Nope. Will it sound really good and have cheaper output transformers? Yep. And yes, transformers are ri-goddamn-diculously...

After careful analysis: PS — build a light bulb limiter. It’ll save your ass (well, stickbutt) of something goes wrong in wiring

Honest question: did you try flipping the leads? I always seem to screw up the legs for the LEDs at least 1 out of every 3ish builds.

Looks great! I like the effect you get with your enclosure colors. I’m assuming simple acrylics just smeared/wiped across aesthetically pleasingly (I could be stupid too. Oh wait, I are dumb). Hoping to have my Hotcake up by the end of the summer as well. Thanks for the feedback on the circuit.

Dude. You are crushing it. Do I need to put another pedal on the “I’d like to build this pile?” Nope. But do I really really want to? YOU BET. Going to read through and see what ideas there are and think about a daisy seed build in the future

Glad you solved it. I apologize for not being clearer. I should have asked a better question about the red 3mm led and explained the LDR better. I was in a funk yesterday as I was working on my projects and had 3 unsuccessful tries. Good luck with the future builds!

Robert is the Motel 6 of pedal building: he’ll leave the light on for you.

So far, I think you have the LEDs in the right spot. You probably need to point the ldr toward the 3mm red led. Does the red 3mm blink and change when you adjust knobs? Voltages help as well. I think you’re close, but just one little thing away from success.

Responding to myself: Replaced the delay pot, and that seems to have helped with the frequency. I can get the clock to sit at 6.9k, I can adjust the cancel to kill the clock noise. I still don’t hear anything delay-wise, albeit a bit of signal boost. Voltages: V3102: 1 - 7.41 2. 3.96 3- 0.56 4...

So, I’ve finally go this thing finalized with jacks, switch3s, etc. but I have zero delay signal. What I’ve done: 1. Checked the frequency on pin 2 of the v3102. It is stuck at 5.8kHz and the trimmer does nothing. 2. Checked the v3102 in another delay - works fine 3. Voltages look correct -...

Now that works. I guess that’s why I was confused in your (and a couple other amp builder sites) discussion of that module.

Looks awesome and I hope it works. I'm curious on how to mod the power supply module to fit 250VDC since it's a DC/AC module (correct?).

Man, Robert fumbling the opportunity for something something

Hey. You figured it out! We’ve all been there with the xx nf / xx pf before.
