Yes, from small bear.

I'm having the exact same issues, using the replacement board. I bought (2) original boards, both turned out bad, got a couple replacement batch ones and while they "work," in some sense, the fizz/distortion you speak of is ever-present, the downward settling of the wah is stuttery and...

In between the main board and the 3PDT switch... what kind of ribbon wire is that?

My friend hasn't built it yet.

Asking for a friend.

I isolated it to a damaged/faulty mid tone pot (B100K). I removed it, installed a near substitute that I had about, and the voltages you told me to expect emerged. And the sound makes it to the output now. I very much appreciate your help!

Wow, gorgeous build. Awesome on the graphics, that's really something. Yes, I'm in the US. Thanks to your help, I was able to (just now) trace the circuit backwards, and where the audio stops in pin 2 of the Mid tone pot. After that is R16, which also has no audio, which then feeds pin 5 of the...

I should add. Every pin you said to expect 4.2V, I measured 4.5V. Pins for 8.4V measured out to 8.7-9.0V.

First of all, thank you. I just checked, and I have found (2) pins on the first (top, highest) TL072 out of range. Pins 5 & 7 (top, highest) came back at ~1.3V Every other pin on all (3) TL072's were within ~5% of your values. I swapped the TL072 and the new one gave the same readings, so I...

Yes, though I actually made a mistake on this build and *forgot* to change the 4K7 resistor to 500 ohms, which is what I normally use, since the 3PDT surrounding thing has (6) LEDs, and 4K7 is too much.

See the first photo, and see the LEDs (there are 6) that surround the footswitch? I'm using that instead. It's either those or the onboard one, and I like the surround LED switch thing. I've done a dozen pedals this way, it works great. Notice there is also a jumper on the sub-board that is...

Thank you for your comments. It checked fine. Yes. No, the kind with (1) terminal for the tip and (1) for the sleeve. Attached. I removed the 2PDT switch to make it easier to get my meter to the board. Same reason I swung the (2) inner pots upward...

The component numbering scheme, in the schematic, does not match the parts list. ETA: I didn't read the above comments before writing this.

I don't think that's the case here, as it's new. Agreed. But I don't think that's the case here, as it's new. If you search, you won't find other Malachite build threads.

I notice a discrepancy between my physical board and the rendering on the site. There may be more, but I stopped when I noticed it as I was troubleshooting using a continuity tester to trace my board compared to the rendering on the site, since a schematic doesn't exist yet. I don't know that...

I just built one, and I'm not getting audio output. Any update on when the schematic will be released? Thanks.

1. I bought it before I realized the build docs weren't published. After all, it was for sale. 2. I didn't realize I had any reason to be worried about anything. Lesson learned.

From another thread...

It does, very clear. Thank you.

Alright, something is amiss here. My boards definitely do not match the rendering. In the rendering, there is a trace between the 10K and 100K resistors, implying there should be continuity between them. My boards do not have this trace. But on the back side of mine, there is trace that connects...
