hi all,

does anybody know where i can get a replacement for this ?
Digitech Switch.jpg

it is the footswitch of a x-series digitech stompbox (the multi chorus in this case).
momentary spst, 6x6mm, 4mm high, the rubber cap another 1mm high.
could not find it at banzai, musikding or conrad.

cheers and thanks,
lohstah

I have a Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah and the 1/4 guitar input jack has gone bad. It has separate guitar and bass inputs. The bass input is working fine, but the guitar input jack is giving me all sorts of intermittent problems when plugged into it and cleaning it did nothing, so I would like to replace it. A couple of the solder lugs also move when you touch them, which I'm thinking may be the cause of the problem.

I've never seen this jack before and I'm pulling my hair out trying to locate it....

This is a Boss CE-2 clone I built with the intention of using as many orange drop and silver mica caps as I could possibly fit! A couple of them dont affect the tone as they deal with time/delay, but they added mojo. :) I also added a switch that can increase the speed of the chorus effect. The result was worth the effort too, but I have too many CE-2 clones and Im looking to trade.
Here are a few things I'd be willing to trade for:
-Boss CS-2
-Combination of a Boss CS-3 and BD-2 or BF-2....

I plan on doing some mods to a Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive soon, including getting it closer to the sound of the OD-1 Overdrive. 1S2473 Diodes might be a nice touch, but they are rather hard to find and quite expensive here in Europe.

Meanwhile, there are plenty of sellers from China offering them on eBay for peanuts. One is even selling them by the 100 for less than what it costs to buy two from a reputable shop in the UK ! Is this too good to be true ?

Hi all! New here, so be forgiving if I'm not posting this in the right place... :blackeye

I have a DeltaLab Super Time Line ADM 2048 on my bench and I've noticed the pushbuttons are mechanically very wonky. Does anybody happen to know where I can source the parts for this unit? (besides buying another unit)

Follow this link for a picture:

The Program buttons for all the presets are the ones that are bad. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi,

I have searched the internet high and low for a fix for dead pot problems in the ibanez WH10.
Well it certainly seems that there are none.

The pots sold online as replacement pots are linear dual 500k/50k, which I have bought and tried but was dissapointed.
The original pot is obviously NOT linear, but as some kind of special taper.
The linear one just dont ressurect the original wah tone, at all. (not enough wah range)

So, I wanted to ask you people out there for advice.
Pressumebly...

I'm a relative n00b at this and I am curious to know if there is a difference in sound between different colored LEDs when used as clipping diodes in an OD/Distortion circuit. I know the forward voltage ratings differ but does that affect the sound of the end product?

Thanks

Moderator: I don't know if this is the right location to post this so please move as you see fit

Gday all!

I bought an EH Silencer a few months ago (only $71 CAD... how could I say no). A few days ago, I decided to plug it in and play. In my haste to make face melting metal tones, I accidently plugged an 18VDC neg center pin power supply to the 2.1mm jack. Got some funky sounds and realized in horror what I had done. Opened it up. Smelled the magic smoke that had been released. I decided to not lose hope. With a 9V battery, the stomp box still functions. So the defector must be in the...

Hi I have a bunch of these things doing nothing with.

various colors for caps that actually fit snugly on top of the sliders when you are done
A10K x3
B50K x3
B1K x4
B5k x5
A100k x10
B100k x6
B500K x3 (B500k are larger, I think they might be 45 or 50mm, all the others are 30mm)
no screws, I can't remember if they even came with the pots anyways I think I would have stored them in the same box, if they turn up I'll let you know.
mouser part number is: 312-9100f - 5k
mfg part...

Hi, I'm looking for this exact pot from this auction but without the center detent

I can't seem to find it anywhere! does anyone have any lying around? I would be very grateful, name your price,

OR, what do think would an okay substitute? I need this part for a DOD DFX94 digital delay, the delay level pot is w100k, it only controls the delay level not the dry level. Would I notice much difference if I used a linear or audio taper?

I need to offload a ton of pots - 16mm, right angle PCB pins, 6.0mm smooth shaft, more durable substrate, and most are 10% tolerance. I'm discounting them by 50% my current listing price until April 9. Get 200 of them for just $39.50 + shipping!

This time around, even the dual-gang pots count the same as single-gang.

Hello there,
a friend of mine got a large amount of the Philips TDA1022 Bucket Brigade Delays, which were used by several companies fo analogue Chorus, flangers or Leslie simulations (Dynacord CLS122, Korg CX/Bx Organs, Wersi-Voice, Boehm Phasing Rotors und many others).
Some of the best sounding Leslie sims where built with that chip.
We've got over 700 of them, bought after a sale of goods bancrupty estate of a german electronic organ manufacturer some years ago.
Currently they seem to be a...

I realize mechanically having On-Off-On makes sense, but often it would be nicer to have On-On-Off for the user experience.
I can't find any mini switches that do this. Do they exist?

Hi all,

I'm letting go of some excess parts. First to go are these PNP Germanium transistors. Ex-military stock, likely 1970s production.

I've taken a random sample of three pieces (with a Peak Atlas DCA) and got Hfe of 125, 110 and 149 with leakage of 0.04mA, 0.06mA and 0.19mA respectively (i.e. low leakage).

I've used these for various fuzz projects and they're great sounding for this type of application with low noise.

I don't have the time to send out the odd few here and there, so I'm...

Hey all!

Anyone knows what kind of footswitch this is?

It is from a ISP decimator and it is broken.

Hi

Has anyone had any dealings with Arcadia Electronics?
I ordered a couple a kits to brush up on my soldering skills (built my last pedal in the 90's) before getting my teeth into something more challenging and have not received anything as of yet. Have also had no joy in contacting them via their website or through their PayPal email. Just wanted to see what others experience was like prior to making a claim through PayPal. Thanks

Must watch!

Hi there
I recently acquired a semi complete Ibanez flanger, and am having a heck of a time trying to locate 4 snap in pots for it. They are missing, so I can't just match them up.
One guy on eBay is selling some, but at 6$/EA and 15 for shipping, I'd like to source them else where. ALPS has a bunch at a way better price point....But I haven't had any luck in finding any specs of what I need.

This is what I'm looking at now.

Anyone know exactly what I need? Or am I going to be better off...

I have several caps, transistors, and a couple other parts I have no use for that I wouod like to trade for other parts.
Several are silver mica caps, some NOS Sprague Orange drops, some new CDE Sprague, mylar caps, transistors, and everything shown in pics.

I will trade all of these for parts. You dont have to have as many as I do, but here is some of what I'm looking for in return:
-100V .047uf Sprague Orange drop cap(s)
-1uf metal film/mylar caps (the smaller red ones that will fit on a...

I had a non working MIJ Boss DS-1 I rebuilt with the Aion electronics Boss DS-1 pcb. I used many of the original parts I could salvage including the original 1S2473 diodes, the TA7136 op amp, carbon film resistors, and pots. I did use nicer mylar caps though and not the original poly-film caps.
Because of the Aion board being designed for true bypass I had to install a 3pdt switch. The only downside it now you can't use a battery, but oh well.
I have too many distortions and looking to trade...

Looking for a complete simple NO tap tempo switch (like saturnworks style or similar) or:

Looking for at least 2 momentary soft touch NO switches, like these: or maybe even these:

And 2-3 DC jacks, like these:

I've got:
A non-functional Rocktek CHR-01 Chorus. It worked perfectly fine as a lush chorus until one day it simply stopped passing signal. I believe it may be the switch but frankly I've got my modulation covered.

I believe this is related to the Arion SCH-1 but I'm not sure,...

It's a long story, but I ended up with over 15,000 pots I can't use in a variety of values. Check them out here -

If you need to contact me, please do so via email at sales@vfepedals.com. I also have a few other parts listed for cheap, as well.

I have an old Maxon Phase Tone I acquired this way and haven't got around to fixing it and don't really want to. I'm not looking to get a whole lot out of it but I'm interested in trading for mica, orange drop, Mullard tropical fish, and other capacitors along with Burr Brown OPA2134pa ics, 4x 2N5952 transistors or other stuff for diy effects.
