Thanks!

Hey guys, great info as always. I don’t want to clutter everything up and start a thread. Is there a difference between the daughter board for the regular Klone mini and the special addition board? Are they interchangeable? Thanks Erik

Thanks for the time Harry. I guess I’m looking for a way to test it without actually wiring it to a switch. I know that’s the proper way, I’ve built pedals with this style of wiring before. But that’s just sort of building it to see if it works no? I was hoping for a way similar to how I usually...

Hey guys! So the Blender (fender blender) is one of my favourite builds lately. I have another completed circuit (in the pic below.) But it always makes me nervous to drill an enclosure and do all the wiring hoping it works. I had one fail recently, and that was a huge letdown for me. I have...

I did end up finding a resistor that was close but not super close, as I think I was out of the other one. But the main thing was the electrolytic cap on the bottom right was a 47u instead of the proper 10u. The way everything is listed is a whole bunch of 10u’s then you see a 47k in there and...

That’s for taking a gander. You could be right. It’s too bad we can’t upload Hi-Rez pics. I have a few different values that are from a panic Amazon order. The colours always look weird, and that makes it harder. Gotta fix my DMM. The cords are being a PITA. They aren’t making proper contact...

Hey guys. I’ve made this circuit a couple times in the past, with no problems, so I know what it should sound like. This build unfortunately sounds perfect, except this time the output is very very low. Much lower than the bypass signal. My DMM is acting up on me so I’ve had a lot of trouble...

Thanks. Yeah that’s a great site. That looks like a great starter. I hope it gets into explaining multi capacitor treble boosters. I know what different selections of caps will do to the sound. Just not why. And the rangefinder had a bunch of cap selections with the rotary. Cheers

I’ve been building pedals for a while now, for myself and others. I made my friend a Rangefinder (I’ve made so many) I “sort” of know how it really works under the hood.. But I don’t feel competent in the nitty-gritty. I only have a general set of knowledge. And want to go further. I know that...

Thank you!

Hey guys! Luckily I don’t have to post very often here anymore. I soldered the three SMT j201’s for my Neurocyton Preamp (Greer Soma) with no problems as always. I’ve built a few before… Q2-Q4 went great with my new Hakko (love it sooo much.) BUT I ended up using a tip I’m not used to on Q1...

Very cool! Thank you. :)

Hope you did. It’s a nice change. I’ve made a couple. Offset guitars and now an offset klone. I’m just an offset kinda guy haha.

Yeah I got ya. But I wasn’t comparing special edition 1 vs 2. I was talking about Special edition vs regular mini. So as one of the comments said, and I agree with it could be a different batch of pots. I think that would explain this. Anyhoo cheers.

That’s interesting man, thanks. Also yeah I prefer the softer knee of the D9E’s for a klone.

Yeah I find D18’s kinda wild with specs all over the place. No I know you were trying to be helpful. I’m sure it’s the same schematic. After reading another response pot tolerance didn’t cross my mind for some reason. I think maybe a different batch of pots could be the reason, with their...

Possibly my batch of pots? Yeah that could be?! I’ve never measured down to 85k but close! I’m going with this as the most likely answer here. Different pot batches. Thanks

Yeah I don’t think my wording was clear. I meant the two special editions seem like they have a bit more gain. I’m not comparing special edition 1 and 2. Just special edition vs non special edition. Again I’m pretty sure it’s all in my head. It’s just strange that I had that comment from a...

Oh, I didn’t want to give the impression that they were all that different from each other (special editions). The two special editions sounded similar to each other, if not exactly the same. I just mean compared to a regular Klon mini. Again this could all be in my head. Probably is. I’m just...

Hey dudes! Does anyone know if the only difference in mini klones is the angular potentiometers? I’m talking mini klone vs the Special addition version. I made one for somebody a while back, and they said something like wow! I didn’t know Klones were so “gainy” They didn’t say it in a...
