Hey Scruffie, have you tried using braid (solder wick) to remove IC's?, I find it much better thatn the solder sucker, try it and see if it does the trick for you too.

No, DC Jacks break the connection for the positive side of the battery. Otherwise you'd have shorts between V+ and Ground anytime the snap touched the pedal's case, which I think is not that unlikely.

Must be the Knee then.

If analogguru had finished his Schematics, they would be posted already. Meanwhile, you can try your own tweaks, this observation couldn't be more accurate. Dude, put it on a breadboard and experiment. The RM is a simple circuit. It will take you 10 seconds... :roll: All these rangemaster-based boo-...

Something important to keep in mind, regarding one of the schematics.

Even though, the electronic bypass doesn't preserve the tails...

I gathered pics of two century Pedals to make a sort of Cheapo knockoff appreciation thread. This distortion pictures will be more than welcome ...

The little transformer looks cute.

Well, we now have three brand names that use exactly the same products, Maxtone, Denio and Century.
Analogguru mentioned hem with some more in other thread.

I did that to a rebote build of mine, it's the coolest thing you could do to a delay, In my opinion.

It's a modified Daphon delay. No custom fabrication, that's their stock enclosure. But according to some testimonials, it's lighter, the daphon is probably very heavy... Thanks for the pics Fuzzer! If I can get my hands on a Daphon delay, I'll see if I can get two! Anytime man! and thanks for that ...

Unless you were asking for actual measured values,

Here is the link to the datasheet;

Indeed, or Neoctavia, probably.

Agreed, no problemo.

Regarding the gain calculation, I analyzed the circuit some time ago.

Dudes, check this thread for gutshots of the analogMan's version of the Daphon delay.

The rest.

Míosamigos, greetings to everyone. Here are some pornoshots of the much excellent (have to admit it) Analog Man delay. It really is a great sounding delay. As you all might know by now, it is an improved Daphon delay and supposedly, the guy makes a handful of changes to it, I tried to capture every ...

Dude, the first stage gives like 10 times gain. However, I agree with you, the feedback used also prevents the beta from being significative.

Could you use some Zeners then to get rid of the extra voltage?

That Muff looks excellent!, congratulations, almost as if it was new.
