    War Scythe - Octave Hiss?

    Ok, revisited this the other night and went over everything again. Looks like I accidentally connected the ground wire to the ring on the input side and I feel real dumb. That cleared up the hiss with the octave engaged. The reaper side is still a little noisy, but I'd wager thats down to the...

    HWUT FUZZ build W/sound clip

    Mine sounds great, but unity volume doesn't seem to arrive until around 4:00. Any values I could change to increase that a little?

    War Scythe - Octave Hiss?

    Sorry for the delay. Need to adjust my notification settings. Added some photos of the octave section of the main pcb and daughterboard. When I took it apart again today, I found two small wisps of stranded wire that looked to be touching the pads next to each. But cleaning those up didn't seem...

    War Scythe - Octave Hiss?

    I'm sure this is probably something obvious, but I'm still in the paint by numbers phase of assembling these things. Put together a War Scythe a few months back, but didn't spend much time with it until yesterday. Both the Hoof and Tone Reaper sound great on their own, however when you add the...

    Diode Question

    Did you ever get resolution to this issue? I'm currently wiring mine up, but curious if I may need to watch out for anything.

    Moonn Sir Wobblington

    My order from their sale in June arrived yesterday, which reminded me about the rate LED issue. Looking forward to the cyber wolf now!

    Moonn Sir Wobblington

    Understood. I've not had much luck finding info or others who have completed this one, and my last note to Nell went unanswered so thought I'd ask.

    Moonn Sir Wobblington

    Regarding the speed indicator LED... from the gutshot it looks like you had the anode wired to the associated pad on the PCB. Nell's build doc mentioned the design was messed up and wouldn't work when set up in that fashion. Did it work when you had it wired that way? I've tried the revision...

    #53 - Chaos Machine

    I ran mine around the board but still get the whoosh at higher settings. Guessing KreoPensas is correct that it's just the price of admission.

    #53 - Chaos Machine

    Makes sense. Although mine ended up with wayyy too much whoosh. Didn't matter the settings, it dominated the output. Sure enough, tried changing the 4558 from the cheap Tayda part to one I got from GPCB and it quieted way down. Pretty much as airbud described. Now it sounds great.

    #53 - Chaos Machine

    Did you manage to work out what was causing the "whooshing" sound? Just finished putting this one together and I get the same result, but seem to get it through all settings, not just maxed. Going to try another 4558 than the one I got from Tayda, but sounds like that didn't make much difference...

    SOLVED Moonn Asteroid - 7 Transistor Fuzz War/DBA Armageddon - Assistance

    Went with a 1590bb I had intended for something else... the copper hammer finish sounded like how I imagine an asteroid would look. It's been a few years but I don't recall having any trouble getting everything to fit. Maybe you could cram it into a 125b in a different orientation, but I'm...

    FYI: Tayda now sells taller 1590BB enclosures

    Did you end up trying this yourself? I've got a Duocast board in my to-do pile but no box... hoping I could just go 1590BB2 pre-drilled by Tayda rather than getting a Gorva and making a dog's dinner of it with my unsteady drill work.

    SOLVED Moonn Asteroid - 7 Transistor Fuzz War/DBA Armageddon - Assistance

    I just adjusted the trimmer to taste. What usually trips me up with these sort of builds is using sockets. Not sure if your build included them (I wanted to try different transistors in this case), but 90% of the time if the fuzz is too quiet or something seems off, it ends up being sockets not...

    SOLVED Moonn Asteroid - 7 Transistor Fuzz War/DBA Armageddon - Assistance

    Yea, he responded a few months after I had already figured it out. No big deal. While a little disorganized, Nils is a super nice guy and the stuff he makes is a lot of fun to put together. This was also about 2 years ago, and from his IG posts it looks like he's got someone else helping him...

    I ended up wiring another 3pdt like the diagram of the boost section of the 200 Sunny Sunns board. FIlter works for me in that configuration.

    Missing Build Docs / Schematics

    Hi there. Apologies if I missed a post in there somewhere, but does anyone have the BOM for the Pro-10? Thanks!

    SOLVED Moonn Asteroid - 7 Transistor Fuzz War/DBA Armageddon - Assistance

    No, I just went with the 470n and haven't swapped in the larger caps. Was pretty happy with the result I got, but I can see how something more wild might be fun. Hard to tell based on that one video with Oliver playing through the original since he had all of those other effects going at the...

    INVADING CANNIBAL LADYBIRD

    Bought one of these boards a while back from Nils and it got lost in the shuffle. This thing sounds like a load of fun so will definitely get started on it in short order. Any chance you have the tayda drill coordinates?
