Hi all! Has anyone got a template for the Vibrabot that they could share? Ie one I can print to DIY the drilling? Also, I am curious about the calibration process. I see there is a trim pot, what is that adjusting and what is the procedure there? If someone could talk me through that process id...

Hello all! Just wondering if there is a pedal PCB project (or otherwise) that will give me a random vibrato? I have tried the Shallow Water (a production model) and I didn't really like it! It was super noisy, to the point of being unusable. The EQD aquaduct would be ideal, as it has controls...

Hello all! Im about to make an order for a Organ Donor (amongst others) and I cant find the recommended DT-38. However there is another 32.768 crystal available called the AB38T. Is this a suitable sub? Thanks in advance!

Hey all! I assume this is a simple one for someone more learned than I, but I just built a functional awful waffle (I LOVE HOW THIS SOUNDS BY THE WAY), however the LED is not working! I’ve tried and tested multiple LEDs, as well as switching polarity just to be sure. I also tried to follow the...

Hello again team! I'm gearing up to build a range finder. I currently am borrowing a friend's "Strange Master" pedal which allows you to switch between Silicon and Ge diodes. I expected to prefer the Ge but to my surprise, the Silicon is far supreme! Im wondering what Silicon transistor you all...

Hello! Just putting the finishing touches on a glory hole PCB here. It just occurred to me I have some left over NOS diodes from a king of tone build (4x MA859 and 4x 1s1588). Would either of these be suitable to sub in for the 1N914's that are on the BOM? I have those too but the allure of...

Hi all! I'm planning on building the double pendulum for a friend. Just wondering if you can get the same functionality out of it as the single pendulum if you just use one output? Are there any principal differences to the single (apart from the stereo nature obviously)? Any other quirks of the...

PREAMBLE/RAMBLE: Hello everyone! Let me start by saying I HATE JFETs. If I build a pedal and it has a frustrating problem you can bet it has a JFET. Rant over!! That aside, I just built a Chop Shop after much recommendation from the forum. I've read all the tutorial posts from people talking...

Hey all! I’ve built many and mostly have it under control at this point. But one thing I can’t get together is sourcing tantalum caps! I need some 100p ones. Any leads? Many thanks Christian

Hi all! Thinking about my next build. I want an”always on” OD pedal out front of a silver face Princeton. Really just to add a tiny bit of breakup. Think Ricky Wilson B52s. I was using a Duocast, however I just got an old Epiphone with some pretty hot humbuckers, so now the minimum drive on...

Hey all just finished the new version of the simulcast. When engaged all knobs affect the sound, however the sound is weak in all three modes, a tiny bit of drive, not much increase in volume. When I first plug it in to the power it sounds how it is meant to for two seconds then it fades back...

Hello all I built an Equilux a few weeks ago. It worked great at first but I just tried it again today and it’s passing signal but it’s super quiet. Many of the controls also have no effect. One of the rotary switches bumps it to normal volume when I hold the switch between settings. I’m...

Hi all! Just building the Equilux and I forgot to order C10K pot! Just wondering if an A10k would be a crazy substitute with a weird taper? I’m guessing yes but wanted to save myself the wait if I could! Thank you braintrust.

Hey all! I want to build a simple wet/dry blend pedal to use alongside my always on wah pedal, so I can blend in a bit of the original signal back in. It doesn’t seem like anything exists in Pcb form (except the thunder chicken), can anyone point me toward a schematic or a cheap solution?The...

Hey pedal friends Just built the parasite wah! It sounds cool overall BUT I find the volume in the toe up position to be loud and overdriven in comparison to the toe down which is pretty quiet and dull. The toe up zone sounds really good but I think it "ends too soon" if that makes sense. I find...

Just popped together a parasite for a friend. No signal when engaged! Had to use some biiig 68n caps because it’s all I had. Areas of interest- the pot may be wired wrong! It’s a 10k dual. I’ve reflowed. Board is clean. Any ideas gang? Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated. If you...

Hey all! Just building the Parasite Wah, which has a etched section for the power input. I want to run wires out of there to a regular power plug. Can someone tell me the correct positions for the wires? I’ve attached a photo. Thanks heaps!

Hello! One of the features I lovvvvvve on the BiPhase is being able to combine a triangle on one side and a square on the other. I noticed you can’t change the shape of the LFO on the duophase. Would this be a hard modification? I’m kind of a noob but I can follow directions. Very curious! Thanks!

Hey all! I have come into 5 2N404A Germanium transistors! Can anyone recommend any projects in the current roster that would utilize these? I’m not really a fuzz person, I prefer overdrive. I just built a Duocast which I LOVE so maybe the answer is building another. If you have any ideas let me...

Hey all! I have a pharmacist at home and I like it a lot! However, I really want to be able to access the treble and bass trims via knobs. I have to open up the pedal all the time! It’s very annoying. Can someone advise me on what value pots would be suitable? Bass is a 200k trim, treble is 5k...
