One of my fav pedals and im not a modulated guy normally

Yep, followed that video. Iron was getting hot and meltingsolder even at the tip but i was getting terrible soldering results. I had checked and even changed the temp and (then the tip) but still no improvement. Im not sure what the reset actually did but i had immediate results doing so.

New tip arrived but I was still having issues. Was about to order a new element but found a comment that recommended factory resetting the fx888. That fixed what ever was happening. Getting good soldering results again

Having some issues with a mantle fuzz build. I notice the build doc is missing the refdes layout (not sure if refdes is the correct name) Normally the first page of the build doc shows what and where a part number it is, its currently showing the component value. Would make troubleshooting a...

For pedal settings and signal chain, i take photos and then put them in a folder that has the date in the folder name

Good to know, im getting pretty crap results with the current tip. I tried a cheap ebay tip i had lying around and its having similar results. But ive got a legit hakko t18b on the way. Hopefully that brings it back to life.

Having some issues with my hakko fx888. Seems I may have left it on for a few hours without tining the tip. Did I burn out the heating element? I've got a new tip on the way l. Hopefully it's just due for replacement. I've had this tip for 4+ yrs.. it's done LOTS of work in that time Cheera

ok, thanks for the input. Ive used jb weld to patch holes before, works well.. but i would prefer something "nicer" for the plug as i dont plan to refinish the enclosure.

I see some people have used marbles with leds to good effect. Just wondering if there are other methods?

If using an iron i recommend using a teflon sheet too, i get better transfer this way https://www.amazon.com/Teflon-Sheet-Transfer-Reusable-Resistant/dp/B07H55M1ZR

Be sure to get that enclosure gets HOT. I use the iron on the hottest setting. Also press firmly, especially on the edges while heating up but if you see that paper start going dark then its time to quit. I also prefer to soak in water for an hour afterward. I drop it into a bucket straight...

Im using a brother with cheap amazon refil toner. Ive found using the backing paper that comes with drawer liner/book cover/contact. You peel away the sticky liner and use the backing paper. For those in Aus reading this the stuff from bunnings has been the best so far, found in the craft section.

Notes and Volts on youtube has a good video series showing how to use audrino to make a midi controller

Thanks!

Does someone have the builds docs for this build? I ordered the board last year but i forgot to ask to get the build docs emailed (i dont have facebook) Very sad news. Thanks for making this section.

Thanks for the offer man but I ended up biting the bullet and placing an order with mouser. Ordered a few other things so it spread tha pain out lol

Aion is OOS, and mouser/digikey want $25 shipping.. ouch. Are there any other sources around? Im in Aus.

Great, thanks.

Im building the Aion Elysium, it uses a SN74HU04. I can only find a 74HC04 locally. Will it work? data sheet for the 74HC04 https://www.jaycar.com.au/medias/sys_master/images/images/9964720095262/ZC4804-dataSheetMain.pdf data sheet for SN74HU04...

Great, thanks for the suggestions. Ill look into these.
