    Fighting the urge to give up

    How do you curb the desire to give up? I'm about 3 years and 12 pedals into building pedals and literally not one pedal I've made has worked. Going so slow, methodical, testing and cleaning every component before and after soldering and none of it seems to work. I make a pedal and it just...

    Magnetron flashing LED

    Awesome, thank you! Looks like R103 on that version is the same as R28 on the version I have.

    Magnetron Delay no/little output

    I have affected audio at the level pot but its very quiet, same with c7, r12 is coming though loud and affected. I'm also getting quiet affected audio on one side of R10 but then R11 is loud unaffected audio and its like that the rest of the way to the output.

    Who's down for some SMD layouts?

    Def down, I recently picked up the StompFuzz and PicoFuzz from MAS effects to try my hand at really small beginner SMD fuzz pedal. It hasn't arrived in the mail yet but I'll post some pics when its completed. Love tiny builds so I'd pick-up whatever you drop!

    Magnetron Delay no/little output

    Hello hoping someone can help me figure this one out. I included a video and some pictures but let me know if I can show anything else or clearer pictures. When the pedal is engaged I get a very faint unaffected signal. Unengaged and I get normal signal. When I go through with my signal tracer I...

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    It only took a year and a half to come back to this pedal but hey better late than never! I got an audio probe and the results were interesting. Here is a short video. I can hear audio from the outputs of the pt2399 chip but its quiet.

    Spirit Box Dry Output

    Getting the same output when the pedal is engaged or disengaged. The signal tracer shows me affected signal until r5 then it sounds dry again. Probably something so simple but I cant figure it out! Here is a video of what's happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    It sounds like the effect is super quiet. The clean signal comes though with it on and i can hear the smallest amount of quiet reverb. Still investigating.

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    I have signal when the pedal is engaged and disengaged but there is no effect and the knobs do nothing. Not sure what could be the problem.

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    Thanks for the tips. I trimmed those leads, added more solder to my 3dpt switch, and reversed the led. I was looking at the old led configuration so I did have it backwards. Now the led works and I have signal when the pedal is engaged and disengaged but no effects. Going to troubleshoot further...

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    Those scratches along the belson brick are from trying to use the solder wick to get it out but it wouldn't budge.

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    Its paper towel from trying to clean up flux.

    Spirit Box no output when engaged

    I recently completed the Spirit Box and the signal comes through when dry but not wet and the led does not turn on. Kinda hard to see behind the reverb module though. Anything obvious you guys can see?

    Burnt pad

    It worked! I attached the wire to the bottom end of R100 like you guys were saying. After a while of debugging a couple other things I finally finished my first pedalpcb project, the Simulcast!

    Simulcast / Broadcast Duo - parts?

    That's the size I ordered and they are still too big. Seems like that's a problem everyone has in the pictures I've seen.
