1590A-sized boards for simple, popular circuits

[ctelecaster]

Would love to see some 1590A-sized boards for circuits that are small enough to be conducive to the size, especially popular circuits that the original manufacturer doesn’t offer a “mini” version. Would love to build myself a Mini Lightspeed/Mach 1, for instance.

Doubtful you’ll ever find 1590A boards ‘round these parts unfortunately.

A few of the projects will fit in a 1590A and we have some utility PCBs designed specifically for them.

When (if) Tayda starts offering line cutting on 1590A enclosures I'll be more enthused about working with them.

Expanded utility offerings (e.g., ammeter)? Or possibly effect circuits as well?

Both.

I'm not interested in shoving a bunch of wires and a floating PCB into an enclosure...

I have a particular design in mind I'd like to use for 1590A effects projects, but without the ability to cut slots it'd be a one-way assembly.... Once the PCB assembly is in the enclosure it isn't coming back out easily.

I've sent Hugo an email to see if this is ever going to be a possibility but haven't heard back yet.

For example:

I used to 1590a masochist just to realized when put in pedalboard, 1590A take same space as 125B top jack.
Then im converted to 1590B junkie. If circuit fitted in 1590B, easy peasy to 125B.

Im still love watching people build 1590A or LB. Just, WOW!

Heh, on a potential customer's request I recently did two 1590A test builds with top jacks. He wanted to plant an always on fixed high pass filter under the rails of his pedalboard. How to do top jacks? Landscape mode, of course!



With this format I was able to bolt down the HPF board to the bottom cover plate, and a fair amount of offboard wiring is just how things are going to be for me for a little while yet.
