This thread has gone on to be +33 pages, almost 600 posts and 70.000 views. We should give out awards to builders, or rather: to marketing departments. This looks like the hype of the year. The thread used to be longer even; I have cut out all the banter, speculation, but kept to the rule that any discussion on the circuit should stay. Took me a day or three to wade through this... I might still split off all Build reports, which would cut down the thread to 11 pages.
- Tracing a circuit is real work: once decent gut shot are published, the board sides can be superimposed in a graphic program to see which components are linked by which traces.
- Speculation --we had 2 pages of that after the gut shots-- is a waste of time as long as there is tracing to be done.
- You are tracing a particular unit. Remember that the same pedal from the same factory may have different board, different values, different brand components.
- Ok, there is some discussion to read through, but this discussion is what lends the resulting schematic more credibility than any schematic on the web.
