Re: tc-helicon harmony singer disassembly

update. I got a bit 'firmer' with it (wasn't sure I wouldn't break something).. but it's built with the USB socket 'notch' that is very tight. pics attached, but had to leverage with a screwdriver from the bottom end (footswitch end) to push the usb socket inside far enough I could just squeeze it p...

Re: Laney Cub 10

dredging this thread.. I have the CUB 10 and really like the sound. not gigged it so am unsure about the reliabilty, but am interested in the idea of putting this into a standard sized 1X12 cab.. I do need a line out on my amps (just for in-ear.. doesn't need all the 'colour' that the rest of the ci...

Re: New OTA Phaser Design - “Causality 4”

I was searching this thread to see if I posted my 1590a layout for this and couldn't find it.. so posting it now. ***note*** I don't remember ever testing this layout so it is unproven at this point.

Re: my new delay, over the top PT2399's

The project on my materials is published on the Russian-language website. http://guitar-gear.ru/2018/at_delay/ There are all the necessary materials. I hope with the help of an interpreter you can translate the entire description correctly. what programme do you use for the Atmosphere Delay.lay fil...

I made some modifications. It turned out such a scheme.

I based this layout according to measurements of a 1590B-type enclosure.
Hey guys,
has this layout ever been verified?
If not, would you please point me to the verified layout..? :)
a read of the thread will reveal :-)

can you post a drawing of this on a schematic? I don't get how that would work cos then the 2200pF cap would go nowhere.

Re: Crowther Audio - Hot Cake Overdrive [traced]

Also, if I don't have i/o jacks wired in, how do I test the circuit? Sorry if this is all painfully obvious, I've really just been teaching myself. no worries - we all started somewhere.. firstly, these kinds of questions have all been asked and answered before. start here https://www.freestompboxe...

Re: Crowther Audio - Hot Cake Overdrive [traced]

Thanks for the quick reply! When you say Audio to Earth, Any suggestions on how to test for that? To clarify, I built the Mojo Cake rev. 1 here http://www.sabrotone.com/?attachment_id=1350 As far as I can tell, the switch wiring called for is only SPDT, as the layout calls for SW1 (Gain1,2), SW2 (G...

Re: Crowther Audio - Hot Cake Overdrive [traced]

if there's no audio in either bypass or engaged modes then the issue is unlikely anywhere on the PCB.
check your wiring on the 3pdt and/or i/o jacks. my money says you've got a short of audio to earth.

Re: 6.3mm 6.5mm 1/4 trrs

that's some great news and kinda what I was hoping .. will play about with this. I see you've not put the FET in there the way that tonyharker's link suggested... any reason why nor, or have I missed something? agree re minixlr (it did cross my mind), and also, I've got a device or two with them and...

Re: 6.3mm 6.5mm 1/4 trrs

agreed re the 3.5mm (and 2.5 also has them). .. I think I'll just stick a battery in the cavity and use a trs... reason being that if I stuck an XLR in, I'd want to do as you say delafred.. keep it consistent so I can use any other cable but that'd mean a mic cable and then I'd only have 2X signal a...

Re: 6.3mm 6.5mm 1/4 trrs

The socket would obviously be necessary. Seems that this is prolly either not in prod or fricking rare so maybe I should just stuck a battery in the back of the guitar. Seems a shame since it'll always be plugged in. Surely I'm not the first to consider this? Seems pretty obvious to me

trrs exist in 1/4" size? I've just purchased a TOM acoustic piezo bridge... what I'm thinking is that I can could use 4 conductors in a single cable for the following - earth - electric signal - piezo signal - +9v (from board PSU back up to drive the onboard preamp). I already have my board all...
