Aion sale sucked me in, but only for one board. Baby steps to build sobriety. Actually this is going to hang out until I can get one of the resident circuit geniuses to take a peak at my thread in the Modification section ab tacking on the sludgehammer’s balanced out block to this beasty. Anyone?
Drilling the enclosure would be my deterrent on this. 12 pots, 4 toggle switches, 2 foot switches, 2 led and 3 jacks would give me anxiety without having access to a milling machine.

Meh, I’ve done ones with similar extensive drilling templates and I do my drilling by hand…..hold my beer🤣 the balanced out would have to go on a daughter board for sure and it would only be one extra TRS jack. Would like for it to be an XLR, but I have a TRS to XLR adapter that would be just fine
 
It worked for running the sludgehammer to FOH w/o issue so meh? Though I will say, w/o a cab sim it probably will sound like a$$. So maybe I should be thinking in terms of adding balanced out to a cab sim board instead
Don’t the small IR boxes like the torpedo etc have XLR out?
 
Been meaning to get some of those. What seller did you go with?

Western-Bid, US based, free shipping. It took about a week to get to me.

transistors have gotten expensive! A few years ago you could get 100 MP38s for like $20!
 
Do people use stencils on 8 pin soic dips? Genuinely curious. Use flux, don't use too much paste and it shoukd go where it needs to...
I would have assumed he was soldering an FV1, which is 28pin? I assume? I do have stencils myself and plan on trying paste for SM, so I’m going to see how freehanding it works for me

I haven’t done any 8 pin, but on the fv1 I just ran one bead of paste up each side, no extra flux. Everything in between the pads jumped right to the pads as soon it got up to temp.
