Hi guys! I need some help with some issues that I've encountered in my build.
So, let me start by saying I've built a Gnat (Buzzaround) PCB kit from Musikding/PedalPCB and it's having the exact same issue as my Vero built Elka Dizzy Tone. Whenever you stop playing the gating kicks in but then few miliseconds later I can hear a hum that gets a bit louder and then it stops. I have no idea why this happens, tried using different supplies/adapters/batteries and it's the same.
Now, this is where it gets interesting. The only same type of components used in both builds are transistors (AC125s and the Ge diode which I'm not sure which one it is). Everything else is different.
Here is the link to the audio recording of the issue: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uqr4pqbQj-cJ0zw4tLU4TlXr99ocnvl8/view?usp=sharing
However, I really, REALLY love the sound of this pedal, it's the perfect fuzzbox for my needs! Hopefully I can fix it and box it and use it. Thanks!
