Thanks for the clarifications !

Can i ask why R6 and what does it do in the circuit ? If im not mistaking, the power filter resistor helps with noises coming from the power supply, so if i use a silent power supply the difference should be barely noticeable ? From what i could gather, this resistor is paired with a cap and...

I guess i ll use the 32R for now, and i ll get a 47R later from the local electronic shop.

unfortunately i have only one 22R, one 10R and the next value i have is 330R

Hello, I'm building Aion's Dynamo Reactive OD circuit, and im missing a 47R resistor for the power supply filter resistor at R21. The closest i have is a 22R and a 10R. I also have bigger values like 330R. There are other 47R resistors in the circuit (R6 and R18) so i wonder if using 32R...

Surely it's very reductive and over-simplified, but Infanem or Octave Clang sound to me like fuzz circuits with so much gain that we quickly get to the edge of what is musical or even usable. I played with a few circuits that can more or less get close to these sounds. Pacifier, Arkaim fuzz...

I wonder if the "clang" expression comes from there :

What's a clang pedal ? I dont understand what you mean by "really enjoying the seperation between the clangy harmonic high side and blown-out wooly low end side". You want circuits with lots of low ends and with highs that sound metallic ?

Not sure if that's what you are looking for, but you can check ROG Azabache project, maybe also read the reviews on musikding. https://www.musikding.de/ROG-Azabache-AmpSim-kit You will also find some mods here : https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/this-week-on-the-breadboard-rog-azabache.11082/

Nice builds ! Maybe you can be also interested in Lectric Fx's Downtown fuzz, which is the 5-knobs version with a built-in fuzz, and the fuzz is great. I think it's a unique big muff variant, if i remember correctly, works great combined with the sub octaves...

Pacifier, DOD FX76, may interest you. Not exactly a fuzz that cleans up well though. https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/pacifier/ There are 2 circuits in parallel, an OD/Distortion close to DOD 250, and a fuzz circuit. We can use each separately or blend them together with some Mix control. The...

It does, checking if the BBD IC is correctly powered and if the clock is working makes sense. VDD comes from IC6, as you can see on schematics. 78L05 turns your +9V into a steady +5V to feed the BBD circuit. Usualy BBD ICs sweet spot is somewhere between 3V and 4.5V, that's where we start...

same thing on mine. i get approximately the same readings on my build at IC1 TL72. I just have a steady -7.98V at pin4, with 9.1V at pin8 and 9.42V at the DC jack, but i guess that's probably nothing. Same readings at IC7 TC1044 and at IC6 too except pin3 and pin7 are fluctuating with similar...

Looking at your pictures, could it be some solder residues shorting a soldering pad with another pad or with a nearby pcb trace ? You can try to clean the board by vigorously brushing the pcb's soldering side with a dry toothbrush until you cleared most of of the soldering residues. You can...

Depends on your taste and needs. Maybe try also the next higher value, like 68uF, see if you like it better.

Yes i did it. I should probably fine tune the capacitors values though. 47uF is a good start, but i think it's quite a subtle bass boost, just enough to notice a difference. Certainly not enough for a bass player, but it does fatten the tone in a pleasing way. I built another C2C circuit later...

dont forget the Extra Bass Mode toggleswitch ! https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/black-eye-bass-switch.17053/post-201084

let's ask @jcpst , looks like he had the same 3PDT breakboard. I suspect there are some other markings on the other side.

I found what the 3PDT pads are, from my own debugging thread : https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/building-a-black-eye-tubes-daughter-boards-mistake-is-it-really-bad.19774/post-256671 There's also the post where the circuit designer told me about the power requirements...

If there's a doubt on the 3PDT connections, it's possible to figure it out and hand-wire some new 3PDT. It's going to be jack IN, PCB IN, GND, V+, PCB OUT, jack OUT, not necessarily in that order. With a multimeter on continuity test we can see which one is GND, and figure out the rest with a...
