    5 builds (another PCB seller to avoid)

    I also built Moonn's "Space is Fun!" after similar failure with PCBGM and it works like a charm. LOVE their boards.

    Binaura passes audio without effects

    UPDATE! I tested all the voltages on the FV-1 and the Vcc at VRef values and they all came out correct. But in the process I found a couple of bum solder joints, including one of the crystal's through holes, and one at D1, which if I'm reading the schematic right, is managing power to the...

    Soldered side. Will retake later -- it's a bit blurry:

    Binaura passes audio without effects

    Yeah, I ordered the EEPROM from MasFX with a bunch of their stereo algorithms, though I haven't been able to verify the file that's on there. (I'm also trying to get my new reader to talk to my Mac properly, whee!) The jacks are wired with 4 mono 1/4" jacks, 2 for each channel. Each channel's...

    Binaura passes audio without effects

    [Apologies if this should go in the Spin FV dev forum] Just finished building a Binaura. Using an EEPROM from MAS Effects (per this post). I'm getting sound output, but vanilla -- no effects at all. Tracing the signal, it dies at the Spin-FV chip. Signal's going in but it's not coming out...

    It's a standard mini 1P8T. StompBoxParts has them: https://stompboxparts.com/switches/1p8t-mini-rotary-switch/

    Oooh me too. Just finished building and it looks like I gotta trace 😫

    Binaura Stereo FV-1 Platform parts list?

    OK, the board labels tell me all the parts -- except the rotary switch. Is that a 1P8T?

    Binaura Stereo FV-1 Platform parts list?

    Just ordered mine (plus an EEPROM from MAS Effects with stereo patches) -- can't wait! Are there any other wacky parts I should be aware of?

    Flock Harmonizing Fuzz - getting feedback squeal

    Alas, no I haven't! I might have to try retracing it

    Skeptical Buffer Mockup Pedal - Arriving Soon!

    OK, I feel like a dingus but I wired this up and now it works as intended - EXCEPT when I turn on the pedal in the loop (buffer switched off of course). Just to confirm -- tip is the left side of the jack as pictured, switched lug on top? (BTW I'm using the 3PDT breakout board and I'm beginning...

    Flock Harmonizing Fuzz - getting feedback squeal

    Maddening problem with my Flock Harmonizing Fuzz. Thanks to this thread, I've tried re-flowing the rotary switch pins (and pretty much everything else), swapped out ICs and such. Still, no joy! The problems: Persistent feedback squeal where the pitch changes based on the "track" knob. Nothing...

    UPDATE: Their King Centaur now works after they discovered an error (bad resistor values) in their build docs.

    DEMO Flock Harmonizing Fuzz

    Thank you for this! I'm getting squealing on mine, so looks like I'll have to reflow the rotary switch....

    I built a bunch of PCBGM pedals so you don’t have to

    He told me he's on pause because he had a kid this year -- understandable reasons!

    Which cab sim to use?

    Preferences on Emu vs. Runoffgroove vs. UniCab? Just want to get a good signal from my pedalboard/amp/line-out combo into Logic without having to load sims in the software. Right now the signal is very low and tinny. [Current setup: vintage Fender amp with a Bray Line-out box into a...

    Adobe illustrator

    I also use Illustrator for work and can help. Along with the excellent suggestions above (especially outlining the fonts!), I'd recommend starting simple by using a template from a printer like @amplifyfun (who does KILLER work). Also recommend setting up some Symbols based the proper size drill...

    Quality of guitarpcbmania pcbs?

    Oops, posted this in @giovanni 's thread but meant to put it here: Here's the status of all of my PCBGM attempts. It's entirely possible that some of these don't work because I screwed up somehow. (FWIW I have a much higher success rate with PedalPCB and other PCB makers.) But I've heard that...

    Here's the status of all of my PCBGM attempts. It's entirely possible that some of these don't work because I screwed up somehow. (FWIW I have a much higher success rate with PedalPCB and other PCB makers.) But I've heard that others have had trouble with Death by Reverb & Kheiron Klon...
