3rd pedal build.
had high hopes for this pedal.
i wasn’t really sure whether to post this on here, or ‘troubleshooting’, because it appears to be working just fine..
completed the build. it works well. no noises/hum.
the tc integrated preamp mode sounds great.
the ‘fortin’ (33/grind) mode sounds good too, but for some reason, the output is considerably less compared to the ‘tc pre’ mode. i’m not sure if the fortin modes’ output is supposed to be like this or not. still adds saturation etc., it just seems to be quite a low output for a drive..
would be good to hear if anyone else that has built one has also observed this difference in output between the x2 modes.. ((haven’t really seen this issue pop up at all in any searches)
i reviewed every demo vid of this pedal i could find on youtube and a few appeared to demonstrate this lower output on the fortin modes also, but i dunno it just doesn’t seem right..
is it possible there’s a fault somewhere?
(is it worth checking/resoldering the caps / resistors in the circuit for the fortin modes?)
perhaps if it’s supposed to be like this, i’m wondering there’s something that can be done (modified) to increase the output on the ‘fortin’ modes..
ah well, tc pre mode sounds really good at least
