Hi,
I’ve recently built 2 of these pedals in tandem (after waiting nearly 2 months for them to arrive) & are getting no effects; only a very thin & weak sound.
No matter where I set the pot values it makes no difference to the sound.
Except for some strange reason the Sweep seems to act like a volume control.
I followed the diagram from attached PDF & the printed values on the circuit board.
I rechecked all the values & solder joints & everything else that could be a problem
It seems to be a design problem not a build problem as the same thing is happening on both builds.
I already built the Delegate, The Ocelot & Seabed Delay from you without any problems. They work great.
But I could be a lot happier if these pedals worked.
I had a look at the forums & there seems to be no consistency with the issues at hand.
I also noted that many had no issues at all with the build.
I just want the pedal to work as intended without any major mods.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Just to recap all the problems:
• Low volume,
▪ Thin sound
▪ Pots not responding (except sweep acting as volume)
▪ Works in bypass no problems.
▪ Led comes on when effect is engaged but does not pulse to the rate
Cheers
