Greetings

Re: Boss ODB-3 intermittent sound.

I have recently found in my collection of pedals, one of them.

The problem is that when I step on the pedal to turn it on, the sound is faded. It sounds like the effect is only kicking in very little. If I keep my foot down on the pedal, the sound Is perfect. I believe something is wrong in the switching circuit. I've tried looking for a schematic but haven't had any luck. Any insight would be helpful.
I'm using a Voodoo Labs ISO 5 power supply...

Hi i'm needing some help with this.
I bought an MZ-2 on reverb with the mode knob not working properly.
The MZ-2 is an analog pcb which is the drive circuit sandwiched to a digital pcb which is the chorus/doubler circuit.
The issue being the Mode knob stays in drive mode no matter where i set it. I poked every solder joint with a chopstick and could barely get a whisper of the chorus/doubler signal. I even flowed some solder to the obvious connections to the mode knob and checked the...

I have a PDS 20/20 that is driving me crazy. The delay effect timing is right, but the effect on the note itself flanges up and down like a wave. It's like rocking a pitch shifter back and forth. I have replaced the bad caps, checked all the transistors, and swapped around several of the ICs with no change. The voltage regulator is also tested fine. I have no idea where to look next.

Here is a bare bones mic preamp project I designed based on the application notes published by THAT Corp for their THAT 1512 mic preamp chip. This was done at the behest of someone on the GroupDIY forum who was looking for a THAT chip board layout suitable for home etching, but I'm posting it here first for folks to check out and get a first look.

This design includes an option to have a switch for -6dB Line Mode, which takes advantage of a unique feature of the THAT 1512. If the switch is...

Seeing as there are only two trace side gut shots, and no one is willing to post components, I took some time to look at this.

The pictures seem clear enough to make out what might be a resistor, or a cap. Cap polarities are fairly clear as well. Even a diode symbol can be made out. Wire connections to the board seem to be bigger solder blobs. Transistor E and C letters are there. So looking at, I get this;

Two things that pop out at me, are the resistor/cap in series between B and C...

Last night I sold my MXR badass 78 distortion, so this morning put the money towards an AMT S1 legend series Soldano pedal/preamp ordered from Thomann (i'm sitting by the letter box waiting). I really want to have a look inside and work out what makes this pedal tick. If there is any info available already it would be good is someone can point me in the right direction please.

I know the designer behind it has had quite a bit to do and say on these and other forums. From the clips at the AMD...
