So I finally had a chance to test this guy out this morning, but I didn’t get any sound :( after opening it up I realized I put IC1 in the socket wrong. The two bottom legs were sticking out of the socket. After fixing that(I put a whole new 4558 in because the legs got bent) I got sound. But...

Quack quack.

Not the first time I’ve gotten the labels backwards :( Pretty sure it won’t be the last either. Regardless this is another multi fx for my bass board. This one with delay/reverb/tremolo. I really don’t use verb and trem. But I just needed a simple digital delay amd those 2 other effects will...

First FV1 pedal. Got it pre soldered, but after doing some transistors I’m definitely ready to dive into SMD head first. This is the pythagoras, with chorus, flanger and phaser.

Finished up the Angry Charles for a player up in Thunder Bay, re-used my McGain! Graphics as it’s got a “Marshall in a box” thing going for it. I actually prefer the sound of this compared to the Pal800 clone I build with the same graphics. The Tearjerker I’m keeping, still needs the off board...

Nothing fancy, but if I can’t brag to you guys that my first smd components went in smooth, who can I brag too? My wife? All I got from her was a “thats nice dear.”

I have a duckbox filter on the way I want to use on bass. From what I read the bass version is the same circuit with a few components swapped out. How would I go about making this respond better for bass guitar? Increase C1? If there are any components you guys think I should socket to play...

So I was able to finish up a bunch of pedals this weekend. Of the 8 PCBs I ordered a while back I’ve only got two more to box up! First up is the engineers thumb, this is going to replace my MXR bass compressor. Then I did the Timmy, I’m honestly not crazy for the sound of the drive on this...

I used the op amp style graphics, but the green russian specs for the guts. Also I really like the look of these LED bezels…But I don’t heatshrink my LED leads and it’s dangerously close to touching. Going back to plastic next pedal. Turns out I also didn’t have as many sockets left as I thought...

Hi-diddily-ho neighbour-inos! I finally was able to box up my flanger! It is an electric mistriss clone from madbean pedals. This one has been sitting on the shelf for a while now. I just couldn’t find jacks that would fit. Finally got some low profile ones that just barely squeeze in there...

If I had to do it all again, I’d probably skip the PCB and just have a rats nest, as this was super tricky to install. But I needed to add some boards to justify another PedalPCB order, this was new, and I needed one. But even when following the build instructions on the forums, it was just real...

Grabbed a few PCBs from madbean to try out. Good stuff but I still prefer the pedalpcb ones. Just laid out a little better IMO. Regardless, I needed a new filter and fuzz for my bass board, and these two looked really cool. The fuzz is average I’d say. Still prefer my green big muff more, but I...

Was able to finish this one up thanks to a generous member here on the forum. I’m not really a chorus guy, but this things sounds great! Especially placed after the Delay for that modulated sound. A few more builds and my Simpsons themed board will be complete!

Finally boxed these guys up tonight. Paragon was a bit tricky since I did the breakout board before leds. But I managed. Live n learn. I used 1n914s and 1n4001s for the clipping diodes. Left them socketed. Also socketed the gain resistors and charge pump so its currently running at standard 9V...

Would love a small footprint analog flanger. Something along the lines of a BF2. What would be great(but probably impossible) would be the new Polychrome by walrus. But I imagine both those pedals only fit due to smd parts.

Someone I know, definitely not me ;) mixed up their gain and level labels and didn’t realize it until after applying the waterslide, clear coat and boxing the pedal. I can remove the pedal from the enclosure no problem. But is it possible to remove the water slide from the enclosure after clear...

Both really fun builds. I’ve had the PCBs done for a while, but had to wait for B5k pots to restock at tayda. Well worth the wait! First reverb build, and first “whatever the hell a bit commander is” build for me. and don’t worry I straightend out those jacks on the reverb. Just had to snap a...

I know there is a chip shortage right now. But if anyone knows where I could get one, or had an extra to sell, let me know!

So my woodpecker build has been my first non functioning pedal. I get a signal in bypass mode, and when effect is engaged. But it’s just a dry signal. Level knob works as intended, depth knob is a volume knob but in reverse, and the switch and rate have no effect. After some digging...

This one is a gift for my buddies birthday coming up. He’s loved the Simpsons pedals I’ve ben doing and I know he’s been eyeing a Benson preamp lately. Hopefully he digs it as much as I do! https://ibb.co/3fRtPGd https://ibb.co/pdswwys https://ibb.co/y80k3t7
