HANCOCK PARK LIGHT LASER.TTF is a very good boss font

... Define wrong. That's the difficult one. If the device works, can one conclude the design is good? So, in general, the aim for a decent PCB design is to place all parts and connections in the most optimal way. After taking that into account this aim is immediately challenged by all other constra...

The thing that I see first is the wrong type of pot mounting, long legged pots shoved through the solder pads by about half an inch.

What's the worst thing that can happen if the new solder is mixed with the old solder, Plush? It'd get angry and splatter all over your face and stuff... :evil: In reality, mixing new and old solder sometimes makes new, crappy alloy, that might have quite different properties than the originals bef...

Never even noticed that, but I'm up for a pub run.

I appreciate your efforts. It is so hard to traced na pedals without full gutshots. I hope someone kind enough who has this pedal to share some more photos so we can trace this awesome pedal. Here is an idea, If it is a pedal you really need then maybe buy one, work out the schematic yourself and p...

but your comment on cons is incorrect in my case. There are no markings on any of my orders, they only have what I put on the silks. Maybe you should take a closer look at yours. Their marking is mandatory since they automatically sort and check them. I've had a lot of pcbs from jlc and all had mar...

U4 is not regulator, it was just a diode.

My personal favourite is JLCPCB. Pros: pretty nice quality Cons: they incorporate their ID into your pcb design as a silk screen and there is nothing you can do about it (except than hide it behind some component or place it on a piece, separated by vcut/milling from the rest of your design). I agr...

Erm, I told you in the above thread where to get the soft touch momentary switches. Can't help you with the routing as the pictures are not good enough.

One thing I should also mention is that when replacing momentary DPDT footswitches make sure you put them in the correct way to match the ones you take out as unlike latching switches which work either way around momentary ones will not.

Sure can, I use these switches a lot and they are available in the UK form rapid electronics. They are low force and momentary, they do have a click but very small compared to normal switches.

Have you checked the voltage at the actual pins of the TDA2040 chip instead of the voltage at the rectifier side. the circuit may have some voltage dropping resistors to get the +/- 28 V down a little to the max +/- 20v . It would help a lot if you said what the amp make and model is as a schematic ...

The build doc on that site has a schematic (which I don't want to repost without permission). But does anyone know if the JHS really uses that FV1 chip?!?!?!?! That seems like something you'd find in a karaoke machine. https://www.profusionplc.com/parts/spn1001-fv1 The FV-1 chip is quite a powerful...

I'm going to guess someone just say some glass germanium diodes and confused them with fuses.

Sorry roseblood this pedal was sold not long after I bought it so I can not get anymore pictures.

Thanks Ice-9 So it seems the "Pic tap tempo add on" would be probably the best way to attempt to do that Thank you so much for your input A pic code tap tempo would need to be a 0-3.3v control voltage for control of the tap timing unlike some tap tempo code which will output an LFO. It co...

Hi captain_tango, I would like to help you out but I dont have the schematic now I ever seen an atempt of a drawing. For you guys much more knowledged than me on eproms, do you think is there any way to modify this pedal so it can have tap tempo? thank you so much The only way I could think of to a...

I would like to retract my earlier post/comment about "AutoTRAX Design Express 2020".... I use KiCad, Diptrace, Sprint and they are all excellent! I am posting this to warn others about AutoTRAX Design Express 2020 (DEX)!!! I saw it in late November 2012 and purchased it (MISTAKE!) regist...
