Here is the message from the Facebook page -- Dear fellow pedal people, If this message gets posted, it means that something went horribly wrong. I've been fighting a nasty lung inflammation for over a decade, but now it seems it has gotten the better of me. I just want to thank each and...

I use wire from both and usually reorder when Barry's Best rises from the mist or when needed from SBP.

seems like something fun to breadboard.

are you getting any dynamic range out of this configuration when you take out the diodes?

adding a link to this geofx article from 1998 that discusses the fuzz face layout in detail.

you get a great kazoo sound in some of those notes. really fun.

just stating the obvious -- make sure you have not mixed up which is the audio in and the audio out for the pedal when you are testing it.

your pedal should sound close to the demo. if it does not it warrants troubleshooting to figure out why it doesn't. it could also be working OK -- similar to the demo -- and still sound flat compared to the way you would like it to sound. If that is the case I doubt if the transformer is...

Does your pedal sound like the demo for its inspiration?

Happy PPCBversary! 86 pedals in a year is something. what are your favorites from those builds?

The film free decals look great. After seeing them discussed in the forums and having them in stock at Amazon I ordered them but have not yet put them to use. Nice job capturing the vibe of the pedal while giving it a descriptive name.

maybe the boost is overkill with the combined pedals. keeping a 1590BB enclosure seems like the better trade-off.

Blumes?

If the pedal is working with the sound and controls the way you think it should (aside from those noises), then I think your next step is to see if the noises go away (or get much better) when the project is inside the closure. Even the noise you get when touching the shafts may be because the...

Some of the background noises you are getting may be due to the effect not being in an enclosure that would shield it. If you already have a drilled enclosure, install the board and see if that helps. Are you planning to leave the daughterboard connected to the main board? Or just avoiding...

you will not have one wire directly connect the "out" on the circuit board to the footswitch. you are putting the volume pot in between the "out" and the footswitch, meaning the "out" wire from the PCB goes to the volume pot and a wire from the volume pot goes to the footswitch where the wire...

Got it. So you want the option of being able to go louder or softer than unity depending on the setting for the external volume pot. Are you using the PPCB board? If so you will need to consider how the pot placement will affect the circuit board (and LED) placement. I suggest looking at the...

Is your goal to have a pot with an in/out footswitch and no other controls? So the top of the enclosure would have the footswitch and LED on it but no other hardware? Isn't that what the build document already does? What do you want that is different? An internal way to reduce the output...

interesting Q&As with the Bard. Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks. I asked just because the top appeared to be unchanged. Thanks for the extra effort and time you have put into this updated board and case.
