Definitely not as clean as others builds here… impressively nice work all. But, I’m proud of this Aion Fx L5 preamp I built for a buddy who is a BBBBBIIIIGGG Ty Tabor fan.

Makes sense. I’d imagine heat transfer with Direct would be the reason, where Spoke would focus on the pad itself not the plane.

Perfect. Thanks. I had them set to Direct. Time to study the difference between them.

Found one of the sources of my problems.. I was using Connect to nets by Name instead of Connect Net to Pins By Name for the GND net. this was causing anything connected to GND to be part of that, so when updating the PCB, several components were grounded that should not have been. After combing...

dammit, yes it is. Uggh. I swear I’m not blind, I think! Thanks!!

/facepalm!! I see what you’re saying now. Don’t need those ground traces because they’re connected to the pour. Makes sense!!

Hmm. Good to know! Thanks!

Yeah, I noticed from other threads and posts (yours and Robert’s specifically) about ground pours. I do have one on top and bottom, I just didn’t set the state to poured in my screenshots. It definitely does make it easier, if I have them set up correctly of course.

Ok.. again massive thanks to all on this thread!! I've revamped the schematic and PCB based on your advice and think i have a better understanding of what i was doing wrong. I need to pay more attention to the patterns used in my schematic and not just copy paste them without checking. I'm still...

Fully agree.. I saw no ERC errors and thought... Ship IT!!! Lesson learned! Cannot thank you all enough.. pointing out my dumb has been helpful!! I'll post my updated schematic in a bit.. I can already see the need to start building my own component library so i'm not placing the wrong...

Immense thank you!! for taking the time to do this. Supremely helpful!! And if there’s a possibility of me fucking up doing this, I’ll find it!! 😂 I struggle with the named nets vs pads and see your point about laying it out the way you did. Off to update mine!! Love this forum and members...

oh wow.. thanks for that tip!!

yeah i learn by failing and have become an expert at learning! :D its' questionable if im richer for it though.. shipping from jlcpcb is mad! $2.00 boards and $20 in shipping.. think i'll take a hard pause on ordering until i have these correct.. Again.. thank you for the help!

yeah i'm going to quadruple check the schematic and then reimport it to pcb. seems i borked this one proper bad. :D

Thank you both!!! @Robert & @Brett looks like i goofed the 9v pattern in the schematic and didn't even notice it was missing from the PCB.. I'll redo that and give it another comb over.. Side question, is there a way to actually test the board without having to print it.. I ran all the...

Thanks!! i will give that a shot! yeah I imported from the schematic, positioned all the components manually based on the rat lines, and then ran autorouter. a few fine tune adjustments for positioning and ERC tests passed.

Hi all...I've been building clones for a bit and feel comfortable doing builds on perf, vero, and PCB's just fine. So I decided to try my hand at DipTrace and see if I can recreate a known circuit from schematic to PCB as an experiment before going all in on my own designs.. So cracked open...

Thanks. I didn’t really like how tight fitting it was with the pots on board so I got creative out of necessity.

Not my first build but definitely my first build report, hopefully I don’t screw it up. I’m still a solid n00b on builds but learning an improving with each one. Especially thanks to all the inspiration and help here!! Enough blabbing on to the goods… Built the Glyph fuzz and I’m so happy with...
