    Here's how to show what "setting" you're on based on LED tally pattern, (bonus knob to encoder util included)

    Hello! Watch the video for a proper demo, but here's two very helpful utils that I've created. The first being LedOptionIndicator while(1) { int rotary_position = GetRotaryPosition(knob1); LedOptionIndicator(led2, rotary_position); System::Delay(1); }...

    SOLVED I think this op amp is broken, looking for a sense check (mp3 files included)

    I'm probing this op amp Pin 3 is a clear signal Pin 1 however is glitched and horrific, this is the sound i basically get from the other end of the pedal (once it passes thorugh) This op amp is cooked right?

    Right, so my Daisy Seed doesn't output any sound. More info inside.

    I've built the Terrarium, and managed to get the Blink example working, environment all set up (this part isn't alien to me, i am a dev by trade). I've also managed to control the LEDs with switches correctly and all seems to work okay in that area. You'll see it in the below script. However...

    Can someone help me understand the lugs on this input/output jack?

    I think I've wired them up wrong by assuming the tip lugs were both the signal, I can't read this datasheet though

    I'm looking to build the Stone Age Distortion (Skeleton Key), but I realised I only have 1.6M resistors on hand, would it make much difference here?

    There's four of them in this circuit, https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/StoneAgeDistortion-PedalPCB.pdf How much difference do you think that would make?

    PSA: Buy the right pin sockets 🤣

    I soldered them into the board before noticing that the header pins don’t fit. This’ll have to do!

    Biasing a Benson Preamp

    Hey everyone, I'm about to attempt to build a Benson Preamp with veroboard using SMD J201s. Their docs call for the builder to bias it as per PedalPCB instructions. However I notice that the veroboard was designed and uploaded months before PedalPCB released a new revision. I guess my...

    I built a veroboard search engine 😅

    So I've done a few PedalPCBs, however they take 40+ days to get to my country, so I delved a bit into veroboard. One thing I didn't expect was that the two main sites to browse layouts were both blogspot sites spanning decades (and thank the lord for them). However, I battled to actually browse...

    I'm unsure if my questions about a green russian veroboard should go in Troubleshooting, so I'm linking it here. Anyone here able to help me out?

    I have two questions I'm looking for help with here: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/can-someone-please-help-with-this-old-green-russian-veroboard-need-someone-who-has-circuit-understanding-%F0%9F%98%85.17639/

    Can someone please help with this old Green Russian veroboard? Need someone who has circuit understanding 😅

    Sheesh, okay so here goes. I wanted to build a green russian but opted for an alternative layout because I don't have the right cut of veroboard for the bigger one. Here's the schematic, following this diagram is two questions I need help with So i have two questions 1. Can someone please...

    So… true bypass is a tone suck on all my pedals? (Audio example included)

    So I’ve always been under the impression that true bypass was mean to completely bypass the circuit, but what do you think is going on here? Please watch the video and any explanation or clarification will be great for me to learn

    Muffin Fuzz (Triangle)

    So this is my second build, I’ve since realised that I can’t just assume box caps, Aion helpfully mentions them in the build notes and didn’t think to check. Also first attempt at enclosure graphics, it’s a high quality gloss sticker that I learned a few “don’t do that again” aspects of the...

    I have a few 2N5088 on hand, a pedal calls for a 2N5087. Is it a bad idea to use it instead?

    The pedal is a clone of a Boss HM-2, Because one is NPN and the other PNP, should I install the 2N5088 backwards to how the doc says the 2N5087 should go?

    You have two identical pedals to build: what’s the best/fastest method to tackle them both at the same time (or not? One at a time?)

    I can’t find any info on this out there. So for those who have experience building little production lines (even if it’s two pedals), what’s the best method that you’ve found? Or do you find simply one at a time to be the best method in the long run?

    Can someone please debug the worlds easiest problem here for me...

    I'm a beginner and figured I'd take what I learned and make a simple two channel looper. This pedal actually works really well. The only thing that isn't working here is the LED. It works with the switch (on/off) as long as both 1/4" inputs on the left side of the photo are empty. If either get...

    Keen to build a testing box, but something I'm battling to find answers for...

    Hey everyone, beginner here I'm keen to build a simple pedal testing box, I understand that in simplest terms it's offboard wiring expect you can connect 4 points to it. Input, Output, 9V and Ground. I'd just like to clarify something though, the grounds on the circuitboard of a pedal at the...

    Thermionic Deluxe – A first time builders post mortem

    So the Friedman BE-OD and I have been to some exciting places, it's the backbone of my chugs and toans. I hope you enjoy reading about my experience. This Christmas awarded me with three weeks of glorious free time, I was encouraged by Bryan (The Sword, RIP) of all people to give it a go as...

    SOLVED Here's video of Thermionic Deluxe whistling when I turn the volume pots passed 12. (Happens with or without input jack in)

    So far I've checked all my resistors*, caps and ICs. They're all where they should be. *I did at this point notice that I mounted a 22K resistor where at 27K resistor was meant to go, I didn't have any on hand so I made one with 22K and 4.7K in series. This problem happens regardless of...

    Thermionic Deluxe, high pitched squeal when bass pot turned up passed 7-8 or so

    So the dual channel pedal sounds great and works in all aspects, one thing I’m noticing though is turning the bass pot up on the high gain channel passed a certain point causes sever high pitched feedback. Just wondering where I start here, have I misplaced a component? Let me know if you’d...

    Beginner question about an LED listed as RLED 4K7

    Hey team, so just a quick question about my next build. I'm seeing the bill of materials says "RLED 4K7", is this just a standard 3mm LED on Tayda or should i be looking for something specific?
