    All this flanger talk (AionFx Xenotron)

    Thanks so much for this! I tried this out (and read the thread you're referencing) and this is exactly the issue I was having. Mine was a musikding kit as well, and adding some folded paper (office paper, till there were 4 layers) fixed it. I need to properly re-calibrate it, but it's sounding...

    All this flanger talk (AionFx Xenotron)

    This is a sweet build! I really like the enclosure - is it a hammond sloped enclosure you've painted? I need to have another look and try to debug my xenotron build, IIRC I really wasn't getting as much effect as I expected and thought there may be an issue with the BBD chip.

    Aion Lumitron (MuTron iii) - with some mods - a bass player solders

    Quite tempted to do this lumitron as well now! The Aion meatball is the best of the env filters I've built - the clean blend is pretty essential I think, though I'd still like to go back and mod it to allow the LP output to be inverted. I've built the jedspeds clone of the 00Funk, and I like it...

    Electrovibe Build w/Monk Mods

    This is a great looking build - where did you get that toggle switch?

    Aion Spectron(Lovetone Meatball)

    Ugh, I've mixed up sensitivity and intensity on the labeling for my build as well. I'd vaguely thought that they didn't really do what I expected, but somehow hadn't noticed. It's right in the documentation - I can only think that both me and @pingpongcomputer also referred to another build out...

    500W Class D Power Amp (ICEPower 250ASX2 based)

    Thanks, I've found the service manual and that's really useful to see - would you rate this kind of limiter design that uses the output from the power amp over something that strictly limits to +/-3.3V beforehand. It's not something I've particularly thought about before this project. I've had...

    500W Class D Power Amp (ICEPower 250ASX2 based)

    The fan spec puts it at 24 dBA - I can barely hear it over any room noise when I'm not playing. I had been worried about it introducing electrical noise, and I did test it with the input circuitry before settling on how it's wired in.

    500W Class D Power Amp (ICEPower 250ASX2 based)

    Yes! I referred to your builds again and again as I went through the process of making it. I'm pretty confident that it was them (along with any other ICEPower based builds on the talkbass forums) that originally inspired me to try this out. Thank you!

    500W Class D Power Amp (ICEPower 250ASX2 based)

    I've recently finished this power amp build for use with my bass rig. I'd built a fEARful 15/6 cabinet last year, and wanted something light and powerful enough to get the most out of the cab. I'd previously been using the power section of a Hartke LH500 (100w into 8ohms) with a C2CE nobelium...

    Lectric Soy Sauce

    I've had a kit for this sitting in a box for a year or so - going back to (near) the top of the build list. Are you using this with guitar or bass?

    Meatballs are the best pizza topping. Fight me! (Aion Lovetone Meatball)

    I found that the drill template for the jacks (certainly for the jacks I had from Musikding) was slightly off, and I had to modify it to get everything to fit. It must have been an absolute nightmare to get the expr and loop jacks wired up on their side like that - well done. Build looks great!

    Trio of recents: antithesis, simulcast, marigold

    Love the combination of the stamped letters and posca pen artwork on these - especially in the "Space Claw" label. +1 on those jacks as well.

    C2CE Nobelium Bass Preamp & DI

    Yeah, I've really struggled to get the stamp lettering even over the years. What I do now is produce a layout template for the lettering stamps as part of the drill template - I tend to redo any drill templates in CAD as part of my process of working out the build. I'm using 1.5mm letter...

    Bass Dude, Omnilooper, F-24 Multi-FX

    Yeah - I've previously build a Guma drive antique and a Pumpernickel compressor . I've not had the issue of the power jack shorting to the enclosure, but the board-mounted power jack is the only thing I don't like about the Schalltechnik_04 projects. I'd also thought about either mounting the...

    Bass Dude, Omnilooper, F-24 Multi-FX

    I've been quite tempted to build the omnilooper, and interested in these insert style loops - are you making the y-cables for this yourself?

    C2CE Nobelium Bass Preamp & DI

    I've not come across them before - I've got countersink bits with the fluted tips that have never really worked well, but these look like they'd be way better. I'm stuck with a hand drill until I've got space for a drill press.

    C2CE Nobelium Bass Preamp & DI

    I normally get this effect when using the stepped cone bits to drill out larger holes, but I think I'd probably manage it with the tip of a broader drill bit for these 3mm holes. Main difficulty is keeping it consistent when drilling, so it might be better twirling the bit by hand to deburr...

    C2CE Nobelium Bass Preamp & DI

    I've finished this build today, a little bit ahead of schedule. I've only spent a while today playing with it and monitoring through headphones, but I'm very pleased with it so far, and looking forward to trying it at volume through a power amp. Particularly enjoying the boost from the bass...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I'd had the same thought, and got the same corner frequency. My understanding is that the 90Hz/6dB numbers are -6dB/oct, and describe the slope of the filter. The slope of C8/R18 is 77Hz at -6dB/oct - I don't know how to produce a bode plot(?) for the frequency response of the filter, but I...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I've ended up ordering these for the inductors: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/leaded-inductors/2400869 (and ended up with a few of them for this + other C2CE/Sushibox builds) - the footprint and lead size seem to be a wee bit bigger than those from the BOM...
