    SOLVED kliche mini gain pot strange behavior

    everything seems to work well except the gain potentiometer, at zero no problem, then as it turns up I hear a decrease in the general volume and an increase in compression and towards the end the distortion increases, yet I tested the 2 germanium diodes before mounting them and they work. the...

    Dandy Horse (Echoflanger)

    At the moment it was the most complicated project to do, both for the graphics of the PCB (used to those of pedalPCB) and for the whole calibration thing, in fact I had to use an oscilloscope to make the task easier. In the end I'm more than satisfied, I manage to get what I wanted, the guitar...

    Silverburst Octarock

    I had the first original version but the enclosure was too big and I was looking for a more compact version, the sound is identical, the external switches are very nice , excellent project. A special thanks to @DGWVI for the transistors problems.

    Emerald Greengage

    very interesting TS style pedal! a nice find! i like mode 1(led) my favorite, mode 2(no clip) very interesting, a super clean boost, mode 3 (diode) too mutch distortion and compression but still usable.

    Tearjoker Wah (Tearjerker foot-on-pedal with autoreturn)

    the mechanical part with the self-return works perfectly, a momentary mini switch is installed in the heel, a toggle switch to switch from the classic to the "automatic" mode, the self-return was made with the iron plate located under the pedal , just disassemble it, fold it more and reassemble...

    Tearjerker ( cry baby ) wah switchless

    I have a Tearjerker ready to mount, I would like some good ideas from you to make it switchless, I already have a similar wah that I use with a classic momentary switch mounted on top, but I'm curious to know some other cleaner solution perhaps, for example optical on off or some else. thank you

    General Tso's Compressor

    beautiful optical compressor, I didn't expect it to sound so good, I put my Xotic Sp compressor on sale, the General is clearly superior. What a great find. thanks as always Mr. @PedalPCB the pic doesn't do justice to the beautiful color I used, it's called "london smoke" it's a black pearl...

    SOLVED General Tso's with pedalpcb 3pdt pcb wiring

    hi guys, it's been a long time since i built a pedal, (maybe because i'm finding the balance with my sound? i don't think so ehhe). In a hurry to finish, I mounted the pcb on the switch, only to notice that in this case the connection is different. do i have to change the switch or can i adapt...

    Tone Vendor Mk2 (veroboard)

    After trying the pedalpcb schematic on breadboard i decided to put on a veroboard (my first time) and i can say that after putting the right transistors and putting a bias pot, this fuzz sounds wonderful. It is definitely usable in any occasion and responds delightfully to the pot volume of the...

    PedalPCB Unicab

    super nice pedal, very usefull. I will use it for recording dist/clean guitars for pre production demos. So i can avoid turning on all the equipment or using plugins, but only a distortion pedal and this unicab. And definitely record the D.I. bass tracks with this nice little gem. I think it...
