I’m trying to build a Muroidea for a friend of mine. He wants it to have no external knobs. He suggested trimpots on the inside to save space. What type of pot is a trimpot: Logarithmic (A) Linear (B) or Reverse Log (C)? Would it just be easier to use regular eyelet lug pots and wire them...

Ok I solved it once and for all. When I took the. PCB out of the enclosure, a wire from the daughter board to the PCB had snapped. Quick solder and she’s good to go! Thanks (again!) everyone for the help! Now I just need some green KN1250 knobs for the top row and I’ll be set. James

Just when you thought it was over. I had both channels and LED’s working so I went to box it up. Was having grounding issues with the input jacks so I loosened them and rotated them a bit so the tabs wouldn’t hit the lid. Now the right side (top pots) don’t work. And the right channel can only...

Thanks so much everyone on helping out. I checked continuity as GenXSlacker suggested and it passed all tests. I replaced the LED and sure enough, it came on this time. However, after switching it on and off a few times, the LED went out again. I figured it was a wiring issue with the...

Ok. I bought a new pair of wires and that helps. Now I get a beep on one of my DMM’s lol. Now after checking both the left 3pdt that works for the LED and the right side that the LED doesn’t work, both switches are showing continuity where they should and shouldn’t be. The other bizarre thing...

I think my DMM is broke. I turned to what I’m pretty sure in the continuity tester. No beep when I touch tips together. No continuity on the switch that does work either so I think my DMM might be broke some how. Any thoughts? Thanks James

Very good point. Ok, how do I check continuity between the 3pdt and the LED? I’m assuming one point goes to the anode (+) side of the LED lug and one goes to a 3pdt lug? It looks like LUG 3 on a 3pdt is usually the LED signal? I’m using a PedalPCB daughter board too. Thanks James

Ok. I’ll try replacing the 3pdt and daughter board.

Yeah I flipped the new LED just to double check and no luck.

I’ve finished the mini KoT and it sounds great but I can’t get the right LED to work. I’ve pulled it out of the enclosure and am testing just the board plugged in. Replaced the LED and no luck. The 4k7 LDR seems to look fine. Any thoughts on what gives? Thanks in advance! James

The finished product. Thanks everyone. This pedal sounds incredible!

That totally fixed it! Dialed in the phase mid turn and we’re good to go now! Thanks so much for catching that! 🙏

I’ve tried adjusting the trim pot several times and have had no luck finding the sweet spot. Or do you think there’s something wrong with the trim pot itself?

Removed the lead leg and still no phasing. 🤷‍♂️

I did spot a lead leg stuck to the PCB just below the left switch. I’ll take that off and see if it works. Fingers crossed!

Ok, so I finished the XC Phase and put it onto the test board. I get bypass signal, signal when activated, LED on when activated, but no phasing. Any good spots to check? I saw in another forum Pin 7 of IC3 to check for the LFO functionality. Any thing else I should check. Do I need to adjust...

Hi all, Working on the XC Phase. I broke down and bought the matched quad pair of 2N5952 from Small Bear. I have version 2 of the PCB am I correctly orientating my Q1-Q4 correctly facing upside down as seen in the picture attached? Measure twice, solder once! Thanks James

Hi, I’m about to build the XC Phase and have a question about the JFET’s. How do I match 4 SMD JFET’s? Do they already have a close enough tolerance as SMD, or do I need to match them somehow? Google results were telling me to use some kind of jig to measure various stats, but have no idea how...

Correct. No clean signal at all when engaged.
