After discussion on another thread, I'm sharing some code I developed for a functional tap tempo delay using the FV-1. This could be built using either pedalpcb Arachnid or Pythagorus pcbs with some circuit mods (attached schematics). Read the Intro comments of the code for knob functions...

With the dwindling supply of Ge diodes and transistors, I’m always drawn to ways to avoid them with modern parts. I would love to be able to build a klone that achieves the original sound without using germanium diodes. On the newest ktr, Bill claims to have done this with some circuit tweaks...

I had this copper enclosure from a re-house I'd done for somebody, and had been curious to try out the plumes circuit. The flat-top LED is from https://lighthouseleds.com. 2 simple mods I did which I'd recommend. -100kA instead of 100kB for the volume pot. I had the B in there originally...

I wish I was cool enough to make this enclosure. This pedal belonged to my neighbor as a kliche build that he’d bought on reverb. It was not working, and he was more interested in having me make a klon similar to my own build’s look and mods, so we did that. I’m sure the kliche could have been...

Just built this from a Fuzzdog pcb. Pretty cool project. The vibrato mode is impressive for such a low parts count. Very cool to read up on RoG site about the design process. The phaser mode (swirl) is cool, though sounds thin to me with my tele. The whirl mode is probably my favorite on this...

Fairly straight ahead build of a big muff Using the values for green Russian. I only used the aion pcb because I prefer 1590B with side jacks. Initially I had planned on using mid knob which the aion pcb accommodates. But, after messing around in the “tsc in the web” calculator for quite a...

Built this for a friend. Very cool pedal, still deciding what we’ll do for the art. The enclosure is sparkle green left over from an old mammoth order. This is my first experience with uni vibe sounding circuits, so I can’t compare, but lots of range available especially by adjusting the two...

Not sure if this is trouble shooting or if this is normal operation. I finished my photon vibe build and have been experimenting with TR2 and TR3. It seems very temperamental. There are many settings where there is a strong clicking sound and the signal even cuts out. So if I adjust one trimmer...

I had my own pcb fabbed for measuring jfets Vp and Idss. I find it extremely convenient compared to setting it up on breadboard, or even a vero build, since I have board mounted DC jack and toggle switch (Vp / Idss switch), and some instructions printed on the board. I the circuit from here...

Built this as a commissioned request for a diamond bass comp. I found this pcb from lectric-fx made to fit in 1590B. I referenced the fsb diamond bass comp thread to find the value changes to make it like the bass version. The toggle switch on the side the is tilt EQ frequency (900/250Hz), dpdt...

Made this pale green compressor circuit from the tagboard layout. Sounds great, though a little bit “clicky” when the comp is turned up. This may have to do some with the led/ldr combo. Anyway, I added an attack knob described on the fsb thread, which is similar to how the EQD Warden is...

Built this from the vero layout here. http://vulcanofx.blogspot.com/2014/09/chopped-boss-oc-2.html Sounds awesome, really enjoying it. Compared it with my friends Boss OC-2 that I'm borrowing and it sounds comparable (minus the 2 Oct knob on the Boss). It is a pretty involved vero build (lot...

Pretty wild sounding, lots of fun. I put a SHO boost circuit on vero in there because with my tele it seems to track a bit better with some extra volume on the input. But too much and it gets really noisy/glitchy. Would probably work best with a noise gate before, but I don't have one of...

Here's a fun vero build that I worked up for a guy who contacted me based on a CL thread for some pedals I was selling. The left stomp is for a DBA Supersonic Fuzz Gun type circuit, and the right stomp is for a Bazz Fuss into Green Ringer (both BF and GR on together). The original concept was...

My friend who plays mostly bass (he plays guitar a bit too) had me do these 3 projects. He designed the decals and they turned out great, so it was fun work together on that and have him share some of the creative fun. This was my first time using solid white waterslide decal paper (for the...

The main request I have for this would be for it to have a toggle switch (DPDT) to bypass the buffer. of course the switch could be omitted and just jumper the switch pads instead. The toggle switch would allow for easy mounting in the enclosure, but also promote flexibility and...

This is an adaptation of the Unison Double Tracker PedalPCB patch. I only used one fv-1 pot input (Depth), which controls the pitch shift up and down together. I had to adjust the code for pitch down, because in the PedalPCB version, the pitch down knob lowers the pitch twice as much as the...

I keep thinking about building an analog envelope autowah (maybe based on the Snow White auto wah). Now I’m curious if an fv-1 patch could suit me just as well for some of that flavor. Like the eqd spatial delivery. Bonus points if it can be hooked up to an expression pedal to operate like a...

The 1590B enclosures from Small Bear are slightly roomier on the inside than the ones from Tayda (because of the thinner walls). So, the 2.2" wide board just fits. Plus, this is a really cool blue color. The knobs are from Small Bear too. I meant to take a pic of the solder side of the board...

Here's one I finished a few days ago. I don't normally post my vero builds here, but my understanding is that @PedalPCB gets credit for the trace they used on the tagboard site. Why did I go to the trouble to build it on vero instead of use the easy pcb here? I like to try to fit any pedal I...
