Just dropping an observation from my latest build so anyone looking for this might find. I made a pair of Seabed Delay (Mad Professor Deep Blue Delay) PCBs, and I used a Princeton Tech PT2399 in one, and LingxingIC PT2399 that I bought from LCSC to test. I was having issues with the LX chip...

The campaign to put PCBs to cases is underway. Not much Phido Sound branded as these were my test builds for all the different PCBs I bought last summer, which I built over the winter. First up is a Seabed Delay - a PT2399 basic delay with only three controls. I wanted to get this one cased...

I've finished the first complete (well mostly complete) build in a while. Here's my Phido Sound On Aire, based upon the Hudson Broadcast (Dual), using the PedalPCB DuoCast PCB. EDIT: Updated the pics with the knobs that came in this weekend.. Build A pretty straightforward build without any...

I have been completely frustrated in my attempt to use Github as version control for KiCad projects. I am using KiCad 9, and Mac (Tahoe). What I don't understand is how to overcome errors when I attempt to add a project to version control. If I use username and password, I can get to a point...

I finally finished Dave @szukalski 's Sheepylove P90 that @MichaelW was kind enough to share with me. Although I don't have a proper case, I borrowed one of my blanks, complete with extra holes (who knew that the out of 20+ cases, I have only made one case with a top-center hole for...

I just noticed a tool on the Tayda site, which is new to me, and I don't see in any of the Forums. They've posted a tool which you can use to check your PDF files before printing. Here is a new tool to analyze your final PDF file, it can help you to see if your files has issues and it can...

Although I haven't cased this, I wanted to post my build report on the Byzantium Flanger so I can share some details on how I tuned this PCB. Stay tuned for a Phido Sound name and case... Build This was the last of the PCBs I bought in my summer 2025 purchasing spree, I save this double-layer...

At the beginning of January I finished my first PCB for the AionFX Andromeda Deluxe version of the Nordland ODR-C. Once I dealt with a detached pad (from bending the large Panasonic ECQ substitute for unavailable 2.2µF box film capacitor) it worked fine. Playing around with it, I could...

My next build is also the first build of my Phido Sound "Big Dog" pedals for the bass guitar. This is the Oorang Airedale, based upon the Darkglass Alpha Omega, using the AionFX Empyrean Deluxe PCB, with the PedalPCB MicroXLR added in. Build This is my largest PCB to date - the first in a case...

I have finished my build of a revised Terrier Review, ProCo Rat copy built on the PedalPCB Muroidea Distortion (2025 update). Mods I may have learned a few things since my first build, in which I strictly painted-by-numbers. I breadboarded the circuit before I built it to evaluate alternative...

I am building the Empyrean Deluxe from AionFX for someone else, and they wanted to have the XLR and parallel output from the original. The parallel out isn't shown on the tracing journal for the Darkglass Alpha Omega (or I am getting lost in the spaghetti). Is it really as simple as just running...

I thought I was going to build up my next Fuzz Debate this weekend, with more tuning and different NPN, but nope, turns out I оrdered the wrong 4PDT switch, so I grabbed another project that has a case waiting for the pedal. Here's my second build of the Ohl Junction, a PedalPCB Guvernator. A...

I have created a Github Repository to share the KiCad files for PCB breakout boards for the Neutrik M-Series style audio jacks. There are variants for Lug or PCB mounts, and for JST-XH and JST-PH headers. I have verified the versions with JST-PH headers. gtfields13/SharedPCB

I have finished the last new build from my first batch of printed cases. This is the Boyle's¬Law, based upon the Keeley Compressor Deluxe, using the AionFX Aurora Deluxe PCB. (¬ = "not" math symbol). This one took a trip to the Troubleshooting forum first, where @Nic was sharp-eyed enough to...

UPDATE My Tayda delivery included a case for the GS808 Dual OpAmp that I built last month. For it's re-homing, I went with a simple design, with a Phido nod to the origin, the PCB author (@szukalski) and the PCB supplier @MichaelW. There isn't a whole lot new here (although I have TS to compare...

This week's Phido Sound new build is the Ohl Junction, based upon the Marshall Guv'nor, using the PedalPCB Guvernator PCB. I finished this a week ago, but was imagining that I might put together a demo for the sound. Given that my guitar playing is not that exciting, and this pedal isn't...

I finished wiring up the aurora deluxe and I definitely have some troubleshooting to complete. I have sound and bypass, but only on one side of the blend. So my really basic starting question is - which direction (CCW or CW) is the clean vs the compressor for this circuit. In my case 10 (full...

I am building a second copy of the AionFX Sunstone (EHX Small Stone), and I wanted to know if I will see significant difference in replacing the 2N5087/2N5088s in this circuit with a BC549C/BC559Cs. I know the BC's have to be rotated 180 degrees, but will I notice any appreciable increase in...

Pulling this over from: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/what%E2%80%99s-on-your-workbench.13146/post-355537 What sources do you have for the Fujistu Relays used in the relay switch boards like in the link. I see these at Mouser at $4.43. As much as I like the idea, it seems like I'm cheaper...

Rolling out the new builds, my next Phido Sound build is the Argand Plane, based on the EHX Small Stone, using the AionFX Sunstone PCB. This is my first build on an AionFX pcb. The PCB layout is nice and the build directions are easy to follow (I am sure I am not the first to say that). I...
