Re: Neptune Delay - My take on modulated 2399 delay

Very cool. I think I might breadboard this with the spare PT2399 I have.

Re: Lead Free Solder?

there's a lot of plastic there. Sure is....I don't have a problem with lead free solder. I always liked using higher temps when soldering (even with 60/40) and learned to be quick and accurate from the start. So the transition wasn't so bad. The key to much of the waste that humans make is to put a...

Re: freestompboxes.org is back

Totally cool. :applause:

Thanks for all the hard work getting it back up. I have a little knowledge how time consuming it is.

Re: DirtBag Delay ~ Deluxe Memory Man [documentation]

I'm new around here, but I'm very interested in this project. I will definitely want to build this. (very likely more that one) I have a Tek 2246 O-scope, so any I'm open for early debugging help.

Re: Large Speed Knob for Vibe Clone

Hey thanks, that looks pretty good. I've been sitting here going through Mouser knob by knob. Figures Radio Shack would be the place. I usually count them out of ever having what I need. Go figure.. :scratch:

Re: Neovibe Cap Voltage

Where are you looking? I can't easily find 1u capacitors rated LOWER than 50v! From one of my usual suppliers, 1u FILM caps come rated 63V, and those are only 20p. Where are you looking? It should not be a problem to find a 50V or above rated 1u capacitor. These are electrolytic polarized caps. So ...

Re: Neovibe Cap Voltage

I guess 50V is specified because you van power it up with 24V DC or 20V AC. You can expect many voltages inside to be around these values. So you're safer with higher rated caps (50V then). Yeah, I guess....but yet the actual PS filter caps are rated at 25V and 35V on the parts list. That's why I w...

Neovibe Cap Voltage

Hello all....my first post here....I hope this is the right place for it. I'm getting ready to buy parts for a build of the Neovibe and wondering why the parts list is asking for 50V on all the 1uf caps? The reason for the question is I've hit a roadblock in obtaining this exact value at three vendo...
