    Beginner - recommendations for Veroboard Source?

    I honestly haven't bothered remembering a source as I've probably bought from four places and it's all been just fine. Maybe good luck on my part.

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

    CARCHARIAS, COME BACK! I'd buy that Sagan PCB too. Re: Guitar Mania, I bought two from them when I started building, and I received three: Uberschall: Kind of early build for me so I was sure it had to be me. Could be. But, I put some care and effort into troubleshooting, feel like I found a...

    What do people like to use for LED's and bezels?

    I like finding odd ones at the surplus/salvage. I tend not to do LED choice or placement until I decide on the art--it always depends on the art.

    Cricut Decals

    I switch back and forth between a cheap Kindle Fire app, Design Space, and Word for font work :ROFLMAO:. Your pedals look very clean! Do you hit them with any coating after?

    Enlightenment

    I use coin batteries to test LEDs work before I solder. I'm interested to hear if anyone does think they should have a CLR; I bet the CLR comment was meant if they choose to use a 9V.

    What should i do with this 1590G enclosure?

    lol, just another small build, bazz fuss. When I'm stressed at work I tend to make small circuits for a quick break.

    What should i do with this 1590G enclosure?

    I've got a vero Arrows circuit in a small plastic enclosure that I ended up liking a ton for its size. Toggle instead of stomp, banana for scale.

    Newb to the Forum question

    I have no qualms buying from Tayda for anything they do sell. I stick to alpha pots from Tayda rather than their brand but I personally haven't had issues with any brand of pots. I like to get wima for film caps, wherever I can get them. I tend to get jacks and switches elsewhere just out of...

    Kliche - No Bypass?

    Never can have enough switches. You added the 3PDT daughterboard that came with the PCB, not a different one? I've had only one bad 3PDT and I've never managed to bridge lugs (yet), but that's just my semi-newbie experience.

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    OK, got it. Yes, I have the OC79 footprints. This was an early build for me and going back over it I just found a cap I must have thought was "close enough" at the time. It's working and sounds good. Thanks

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    I just glanced at the current version and one that's on Reverb, and I see the PCB's changed from the version above, which is also the one I built a while back. Did anything change that people who bought the old PCB could be aware of?

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    Resurrecting a quiet thread, yes, I had the same issue with this pedal.

    SOLVED Son of Ben - Solder Pad Came Off

    Looking at the BOM, if you are now installing a B1M dual gang that bridge should be broken (well, not connected) anyway, right? My first guess is it's fine as-is.

    SOLVED Son of Ben - Solder Pad Came Off

    The schematic will show it better than the PCB anyway.

    Depths/Abyss LED on-off cutoff only working with Rate pot cranked

    I'm having a problem similar to what I've seen on boards with Univibe-type pedal builds, but so far I haven't seen an answer. For the Abyss, the pedal works when Intensity and Rate are all the way up, but when Rate goes down at all, it misses the LED switching threshold and the pulsing stops...

    Newbie question - transistor replacements

    Thanks a ton, everyone! I'm paying attention to the 'why' on all of this, but I've got a whole lot to learn on transistors in particular. I'll look into each option.

    Newbie question - transistor replacements

    Hi all, I'm sourcing for what will be one of my first pedals (first one finished, and worked!). For a Muffler Noise Gate I'm unable to find a 2n5485 transistor anywhere. It's a common enough issue in general and usually I learn enough to find a replacement on Tayda, but for transistors I...
