Do you have one? Don't mean to be a bother

That would be awesome

That all makes sense, but I'm not really sure how to actually wire that. I've only ever wired effects 3pdt the traditional way so I'm not sure what to hook up to what. So right now I've got the fuzz all ready to go. Just not sure the next step.

So, a friend is asking me to make a double pedal for him, one side is a Superfuzz and the other is a Tubescreamer. Thing is, he doesn't want just a regular double pedal, he wants each side to have it's own separate output, and he wants the switching to work in a particular way. The idea is that...

So that didn't work, but I replaced the bulb and it worked just fine. I guess it was just a bad lamp? Odd.

Possibly. Those dual gangs sit really close to the board. I will check

So this is the second Electro Vibe I've built. First one worked great. This one, the volume on the chorus side is MUCH quieter than on the Vibe side, when I turn the speed up to max the bulb stops flashing and just stays on even after I turn the speed back down (gain and bias adjust doesn't fix...

Jumper did the trick. I noticed that one little place on non continuity a while ago but assumed I was screwing up. Should have trusted myself. Works great now thanks so much everyone! Now I have to find some good knobs...

Everywhere is good except 2nd pin of Q1 to R4.

Footswitch is fine. Tested that for sure. LEDs are fine. Both come on when they should. Bypass works. When Circuit is engaged it just makes this low buzz. Knobs seem to even work (they affect the volume, tone, etc of said buzz) Audio probe gets guitar signal up to pin 3 of Q1 and then nothing.

Well the PF5102s came In yesterday, swapped it out, same issue. Back to square one. Tearing my hair our a bit.

Any wisdom gained? I just built one and it sounds good but i haven't messed with this at all

Yeah that was my original thought.

I spent an hour last night verifying continuity for the entire circuit. Everything seems fine. So I went through it with the audio probe and I get guitar signal on pin 3 of Q1 but nothing after that.

They are not

I appreciate the help. The power situation is fixed. Bypass is now working fine, I can turn on the effect, LED comes on, but the sound is really low, noisy, and intermittent.

Man... maybe I'm not cut out for this pedal building thing. Maybe I shouldn't be allowed to use a Soldering iron or sharp objects either... All my other pedals I've built had positive and negative leads on the other side...ugh. I'm an idiot

Yeah it's power related. I'm reading negative voltage now. I'm not sure how. What am I doing wrong?

Yeah I mixed up the convention of red = positive, black = negative. My bad.

Surprisingly no, no Bridge there. I even redid the wires and soldering.
