photon vibe photo cell position

[fritz]

any suggestion on how to position the photo cells of the photon vibe? what's the correct angle?

 

[Nostradoomus]

I usually bend the LDRs at a 90 degree-ish angle so they are facing the LED.

I.E.;

I guess I'll do it the same way.

By the way my pcb looks totally different, only 4 photo cells...

Nostradoomus’ pic is of a phase ii build, that’s why it looks different, but he showed it since it’s the same idea for the LEDs. No harm in asking here, but you can also get a good idea of this type of thing by searching the build reports section for the pedal you’re planning to build

Highly recommend looking through the build reports before any build, might be a great mod or lesson learned from others experience!
