Hey folks, Got a couple projects that I'm wrapping up. 1: PPCB Electrovibe 2: is a project i'm just starting(bread-boarding currently) a clone of the BYOC Octave Fuzz, which I think is a clone off a Fulltone Octafuzz. For all three of these i've ran into a similar problem(schematics and images...

yeah

I'm out of 2n5089'a for the squidward. What characterisics am I looking for in a possible substitue? I have some S series(ex: s8550), A series(ex: a1015), as well as alot of BC 109,108(a,b,c), 2n2222(metal can), and bc183s. Maybe I should be patient and wait for the order of the 89s? Thanks

I did a Sandspur build for my neighbor a while back, ever since I caught the bug... now that i'm full force off the rails on chase the dragon kind of fuzz pedal qwest, I want to read up on anything and all about them. I'm more of a text book kind of person, too much BS on the internet to...

been going down the octavia rabbit hole lately. put together a Octa-Mayer rather quickly, having some problems out of the gate. I denfitly rushed this build so any advice would be appreciated, I decided to table the toubleshooting until today. Starting this post at the same time. Here is what...

Put this together for a buddy, everything seemed to be okay until I was at his place and heard some power related noise when it was in the chain. Wasnt to bad but I decided to take it and take a look at it in case something needed to be addressed. First thing I noticed, this pcb says the...

A year or so back I acquired one of those general electronics packages off of amazon (resistors, caps,etc). On the list of whats inside it notes a bunch of trannys, at the bottom it says Germanium PNP x2. I was sorting through the lot of 100 Russian transistors that just came in the mail and...

Hey, My second build. still confused on the LED issue i'm having. I want to use the main pcb pads for my indicator. the daughter board LED pads are not jumped, led installed @ main board. effect works great. No led. I did the following: tested led-good, jumped daughter board led pads-nothing...

Bought one of these out of impuse and I am now throwing it together. I bought a lot of MP42B, and MP16 transistors from Sovcom(alexer1) on ebay, most of which are 40-60 HFE on the TC-1 tester, a couple between 75-110. While it may not be ideal has anyone messed with using the lower values for FF...

Hey, Working on a couple builds right now, this one being my second so i'm still a greenhorn. I wanted to ask about the indictator LED.. I do not wish to use the one on the daughter board.. I have voltage at the daughter board only right now measuring from "A" to "K". Nothing at the main board...

Still really green when it comes to effects Quick question(s): 1: Is that indeed true, that all I need to do is jump the main pads "A" to "K" to utilize the daughter board's LED pads? 2: I have not put a LED in yet, but should I be seeing 9v at all times? effect on and in bypass? doesn't 9 seem...

By far, the Uni-vibe is my all time favorite effect... Bridge of sighs, Machine gun, hey baby(new rising), love all those songs! I met a gentleman from California that send me a PCB, and Kamila (Argenzino) is sending me a blank main enclosure as well as the speed(foot) controller that her and...

Recently picked up a lot of Germanium MP42B's(AC128/OC75) as well as MP16B"s(2N404). I am almost done sorting though them, about 90 out of 200 or so have a HFE between 40-60 as well as leak being okay. I'm new to pedal building so I'm still learning, is there any suggested use for these? any...

First time posting here. When it comes to any project, getting holes drilled and graphics are a struggle for me. Im still an apprentice when it comes to the pedal game. Does anyone have some advice? I think that the best(easiest) way to tackle it would be CAD, then chuck it up in the CNC... at...
