Right you are. I won't go that way. It was just curiosity
Thanks

Bumpety bump!

Would something like this do?

Sorry what I meant is why not going directly from a 240VAC outlet into the pedal and inside the pedal have a PSU converting that into whatever is needed by the effect? After all we're using a One Spot that converts 240VAC into 9v, and inside the pedal the charge pump is converting those 9V into 190VDC and 6V for the effect...

Just wondering...
Oh and of course I wouldn't use a standard coaxial DC cable for that...

Maybe a dumb question but lately I've been asking myself:

Why a 9v converter? If it needs nearly 2A to work and the best way to feed it is with a separate PSU such as the Truetone One Spot why not have directly a 240VAC input?

Just out of curiosity

Clever!

Probably a dumb question but I've been checking the pics of the guts you have posted along the thread and cannot figure out what you use to hold the boards in place!! They look like they're floating held by the cables!! Could you share what you use please?

Cheers
Sono

Great!! I'll definitely go for that then. A trimmer inside will give me more room

Thanks John!!

I'm trying to cut down on things as much as possible since I now have more switches and knobs than the original project. So I'm thinking of customizing a double gang pot to have a single Master knob that depending on SW4 position would act as 1Mlog or 100klog Master output. (It's a matter of swapping wafers basically)

On the same line of thought I'd like to ask: is the Presence knob really necessary? Is it's role rather important?

Thanks

Good thing I asked hehehe!!
Thanks mate!

BTW, It´s a Hammond 1590BB box you used?

Great!!
Thanks John. I'll keep you guys posted!!!

Thanks for your reply. I'll test and try as you say

I just wanted to know if my last schem was correct after your last suggestion (or was it Clegg's logged on your computer?)

I'd move SW3B between V2A and V2B, so that the tone stack is being driven by the cathode follower as a single or twin.
EDIT - That was actually Cleggy responding there... I must have been logged in on his computer.

Here's the schem again. Just let me know if SW3B is now correctly placed please.


I'm nearly ready to prototype
Thanks a lot

pretty bump.....
