    Sandspur Fuzz - Volume Loss

    I’m working on a Sandspur Fuzz build and my bypassed signal works fine. The engaged circuit signal was working fine for about 5 minutes and then all on its own the volume dropped significantly. What are some common reasons this would happen?

    Kliche mini - treble knob frequency

    For the Kliche Mini, how would I go about changing the frequency boosted by the treble knob. For example, if instead of lifting from the mid-high range, is there a capacitor value I could swap out to make the boosted frequency higher?

    Custom Range Potentiometers

    I’m new to this and wondering if there is a such thing as a custom-range potentiometer. For example, if I bought a B100k and wanted to configure it so that at the bottom of the range it started at 12k resistance and at the top of the range it landed on 88k resistance. My uneducated guess would...

    DC Jacks: 2-pin vs 3-pin

    I’ve been using 2-pin DC jacks. They work great and the pedals I’m building do not have a 9v battery. I’ve recently ordered some 3-prong. So, instead of simply positive and negative, it has positive, negative, and ground. My question is… Since it doesn’t have a battery, how should I wire them...

    DC Jack 2.1mm vs 2.5mm

    I’ve seen 5.5 x 2.1 DC Jacks for sale. I’ve also seen 5.5 x 2.5mm DC Jacks for sale. I read that the 2.1mm is a “snug” fit whereas the 2.5mm is an “easy” fit. What is best? What is considered more professional?

    How do SHARC DSP chips work?

    I read somewhere that the Strymon BigSky uses the SHARC DSP chip. I’m wondering if that is a chip that comes preloaded with effects on it by default that we could tap into … or if it is more like a blank programmable chip that can receive and save transferred proprietary code onto it that can...

    TL072CP Op Amp Differences

    Does anyone know the differences between these two op amps? Which is the best sound and quality for the Kliche Mini or are they pretty much the same? (I realize I could just try both but wondering if anyone else has already done so and what the thoughts are on it.)

    Kliche Mini B10k Volume Not Muting

    I’ve just completed my first Kliche Mini build and noticed that a little bit of volume is making its way through even when the volume potentiometer is turned all the way down. Should I try another potentiometer in case the one installed is faulty or is this the expected behavior for this circuit?
