I’m just getting caught up looking at everyone’s builds after some pretty busy weeks. Your builds are consistently some of my favorites. I hope your recovery is going well.

I don't think I have an answer but my setup is somewhat similar and I have been pondering what to do with mine. Do you currently use MIDI in your setup? For the switching do you use one of the synths and dirt sections at a time or do you use 2 or more at any time?

You could use 2 separate LEDs or 1 bicolor which would have 3 legs, ground and one of each color. The drawing is for a single bicolor.

This will give you 4 separate indications with the dual led. You would probably have to mess with where to place the resistors and the colors tho. You might want to put a resistor before each side of the LED to help even the brightness when they are both on.

that one took me a few minutes to follow everything through. I wrote it out different but I don’t think I really understood the switch part as I haven’t done any stripboard layoit(they somehow don’t click for me). I think another LED could be added and then it would read out 4 different...

Thank you. I could probably stand on the switch with my full weight but haven’t tried. I have made around 30 and haven’t had an issues with any breaking but they could be printed thicker or reinforced if it were an issue.

Your vinyl comes out well. I always found the weeding process to be a little frustrating. I did a QR code once and have been a little turned off with the process since.

I thought so too. If you get a laser printer and try I before I do let me know how it went.

sounds like the internal pot works. I pulled the back off mine to measure the external. With the gain all the way down resistance was around 0 with the gain all the way up it was around 1M. This is measuring from pin 1 to 3 of the external gain pot. I would check your resistance at those...

Hey, I have done a few. I’m working ok getting my thingiverse set up with some common boards but only have one up now. What boards do you have? I will see if I have something done for it and post it.

If I recall the zeners have current in both directions. I think it would make some sort of soft clipping.

Looks like it good eye. My thoughts in addition to that would be to clean the flux from the board with alcohol, check your component values, reflow the joints, check that you have 18v on pin 8 of IC2 and -9 on pin 4. From there with it cleaned up I wonder if some of the scratches around the...

Funny you mention the laser printed labels. I read this article about printing on top of laser printed labels. https://hackaday.com/2022/09/27/add-full-color-images-to-your-3d-prints-with-toner-transfer/ I unfortunately am also without a laser printer.

Nice build. I was disappointed when I pressed on your build reports button the other day and found it empty. I look forward to seeing more builds. I think the labels came out nice we have a vinyl cutter also but don't use it as much as I would like. I have wondered if there is a material...

1. My thoughts are that neither inverts so you should be fine. 2. Not sure if it's the right thing to do or not but I have just been pulling one long wire for ground and running them all together. I have seen some other people do the same thing. It's way faster than running all the separate...

Got it I agree with Zanshin. I think you need to jumper the 4k7 resistor without it the connection or the switch is open.

Where is the LED and how is it attached to the circuit currently?

That thing sounds cool. I have always wanted to get a setup like that. I used to dabble playing other instruments because I like the variety of sounds they make but at my core I’m really a guitarist and none of the other instruments have really clicked for me. I often learn the violin parts...

Dang. I did some guitar builds in my early 20s that I polished basically the same way you described, but I didn’t have the patience to get them as nice looking as your enclosure. I had assumed you were using some sort of power buffer.
