PedalPCB D3lay and ThreeVerb (Pythagoras v3) two for Tuesday

Great pedals and they sound wonderful. These are two of the Pythagoras v3 pedals that I built. I previously built the Radium Springs. These are all FV-1 pedals which means they are fairly pricey (about $36 for each board with FV-1 and EEPROM). The build for FV-1 pedals is fairly easy and they always sound great to my ear. All three Pythagoras v3 boards are built with the exact same components other than the programmed EEPROM. The delay and reverb in these FV-1 pedals is sweet and organic sounding. The Reverb is not crazy and both pedals have useable sounds.

I used Switchcraft jacks in both pedals, and anodized knobs. The ThreeVerb is in a pastel lavendar enclosure with purple knobs and a blue LED. The D3lay pedal is in a Tayda pink enclosure with different size green knobs (three 15mm in the back and two tall think in the front) and a green 5mm LED, I rate these FV-1 pedals high and I will build more. The FV-1s were soldered at PPCB.

NOTE: It looks like my C4 is incorrect in these builds. It should be a 1n instead of the 100n that I have installed. FYI: the D3lay pedal worked great and had good volume, but the Threeverb does not quite have unity even with the volume knob all the way. I only noticed today and I do not have any edit button to fix the build report. Sorry for the error. I have not swapped C4 yet but I will circle back and report.

Follow up: I found a second more important problem. The volume potentiometer was supposed to be a B100k and the mix potentiometer was supposed to be a B10K. I had those two flip-flopped. So I corrected my issue with C4 and I swapped out these pots and now it works perfect. Has Unity somewhere around noon. Serious brain farts.
