Did you use my layout? I had no noise issues and let's say my build wasn't the cleanest one, a lot of wires all over the place and still noise floor is quite low.FeVeR2112 wrote:I built it but have a squeal happening when drive and loudness reach a certain point in relation to each other - i.e.: when the drive is full up, the loudness will cause squeal when about half way. the same happens when the drive is lower but the loudness is higher. Anyone else encounter this?
You are absolutely right in my opinion. I think the changes made in the lightspeed is just a way to hide the clone it is in the first place just to justify the price for a "boutique" pedal (much like happens with the Jann Ray). That said, I like the assymetrical clipping option with 3 and 2 diodes.HamishR wrote:While I'm not a huge fan of the Timmy it's still a beloved pedal of many for good reason. The Lightspeed seems to be a way of taking a revered pedal and making it less useful. I built one to see what the fuss was about and found it altogether underwhelming. I'd take a Timmy over the Lightspeed any day.
