Fun project. Somewhat easy to maneuver on the board, and the finished project is a useful pedal with varying levels of overdrive. The voice switch is subtle, and the gain switch is aggressive: it seems to go from Klon-like to Murder wasp. The overdrive is able to be dialed in very easily and you...

I am a sucker for switches and overdrive. In my opinion the boost on this pedal is somewhat underwhelming. With that said there are a few things I will test tomorrow. I did not have the LM833 op amp (it will be here tomorrow), so I used an NE5532. Also the build docs call for a BC549C transistor...

A tribute to SRV. Just a few hours start to finish. Not too many parts and fairly easy to do with less than your full abilities. It sounds different on my Vibroverb - much more throaty and low. On a 1965 Super Reverb it cooks pretty good. SRV used a 1964 Vibroverb and I happened to have one so I...

Edit: there may be an issue with R 37 and R 38. I was just reading this thread. Just recently I started following the board unless there was a note somewhere saying it was incorrect. Seems there’s a disconnect between the Pastel board and the build docs but no note on the build docs. I pulled...

Here is another board that I had populated last week. I had already made all of the graphics and drilled out the enclosure. All that was left was to button it up. Such a rewarding and fun build! I have been working my way through the Tremolo offerings here. I enjoy this one very much. Once I...

So I completed this pedal a few weeks ago but it did not work on the PedalPCB platform so I set it aside. When I came back to it I saw that I had inserted the wrong op amp in the TLC2262 spot so I swapped it out and it worked straight away. I did not post this problem on the trouble shooting...

My second go round with the circuit. I enjoy this pedal very much. I put this in a 1590b with top jacks. I used a fiull size footswitch and paid no attention to my caps. Everything fits easily. The Lumberg jacks are great for tight areas and they sit above the pots. I messed with the trimmers a...

I am a big fan of this pedal. I previously built one and it went off to California so I built another. You can roll the gain all the way down to zero and the pedal is a transparent OD or boost. You also have a toggle which goes from mild aggression to pissed off murder wasps. The pedal worked...

Such a fun build. Thirteen resistors, eleven caps and one op amp. I enjoy the circuit and the ability to dial in the right tone. I have built one before and manipulated the pins on a mini toggle to add the symmetric/asymmetric switch to the outside of the pedal. This time I used a cute little...

The pedal is easy to assemble. I had an unforced error where switch one did nothing, so if you were wondering... a 470n in place of a 470p causes switch one (boost) to do nothing. Swapped a 470p in there and I got the full experience. Thankfully the PedalPCB auditorium let me discover the...

A very aggressive pedal - it can clean up a bit also. It goes together quickly and there is room on the board to install larger caps. I enjoy the overdrive it produces. I used a sulphur yellow enclosure with purple anodized alumnium knobs. Inside I used a Love My Switches breakout board and I...

I think the pedal has a marvelous sound and the tone knob is useful. I think the pedal could use a touch more power - but just a touch. I did deviate from the build docs - used a 1N4007 in place of the 1N4005 that I do not have. Maybe with that change the pedal would be markedly different. I...

I put this together this afternoon. Lovely reverb pedal with more options than the Sproing and less options than the Deflector or the Gravitation. Might be your sweet spot. For me the Sproing was not enough and the Deflector was too much. I loved the Gravitation and this one is in second. You...

My opinion is that this is a fabulous circuit. I have been saying I am not a fuzz fan, but maybe I have been playing the wrong fuzz pedals? This one is overpowered and it has a tight sound. It is not all flubby or un-harmonic. I loved the Sandspur and the Copper Clad, but I would say this pedal...

It has the smallest board and yet gave me the most trouble putting it into a 1590a. It went together very fast and it sounds good. I would say in my opinion, it is slightly underpowered. Sounds good cranked however. I checked my resistors twice to be sure. I used a 1590a from Tayda and added...

I have made a few of these because I love the result. They are small boards and they fit easily in small enclosures. I have made four of these and maybe that is enough for a while. The enclosure is metallic and it is difficult to work with. It chips easy and scratches easy. Fingerprints show as...

I was in Nashville and was asking players about pedals that the working musicians use. Seems they always have boost and compression. One of the best players I saw used a Wampler Ego. But here is a great little boost. I have done it before, but I love solving the problem involved with the small...

What I’m wondering is if there’s anyone on here who has time to breadboard the PedalPCB Enchanted Boost and take a picture of it. I really like the circuit and I’ve spent hours trying to figure out what happens when I get to the transistor. I was only able to successfully breadboard a Boost...

I went with the 32mm knob here and a 5mm blue LED. The case is a very cool design and I love it. I put the Lumberg jacks on the sides. The Enchanted boost is a winner and I absolutely love it. It does not color your tone and it has unity at zero - at zero it is a buffer. 1/2 inch vinyl letters...

I had problems with my Vibrobot build so I decided to continue fitting PedalPCB boards in smaller enclosures. Yesterday I put a PedalPCB Copper Clad in a 1590a and today the 1590b. The enclosure is shallow and I like side jacks, so I tillted the board toward the footswitch. I really like the...
