Title: New stuff, batch 4 (the final batch!)
Post by: juansolo on August 22, 2013, 06:12:09 PM
Fallen

Madbean's Sharkfin PCB implementation of a Maestro Filter, Sample & Hold. The Envelope is rather marvellous. Much easier to dial in than the Mutron and I think it might sound better! The Sample&Hold is a bit mad! Zappa-tastic.

The problem we were having with the other one was there was a diode backwards on it, I'll fix that one tomorrow and get that built. That one has about the most perfect decal we've ever turned out on it. this one has a few marks :(

The Wall

Cleggy's P19 re-decalled as it had faded badly (my printer was going through a red phase at the time, Nurse Betty has also been affected and is going to be re-decalled also). Before I took it apart I noticed the LED wasn't working. It was shorting so one thing led to another and I ended up doing a full rebuild.

*golf clap*
All the style and elegance we've come to expect from a Juan and Cleggy original. I can only try to build up to the standards you guys set.

Now if you could only get those guts cleaned up a bit! Fantastic as always.

I've learned so much from studying how you do things.

That was so I can follow it tomorrow when I re-wire Cleggy's ;)


EDIT: ...and I admit, I have quite a lot of patience, ...and can be a little OCD


EDIT2: when I can actually tell (my eyesight ain't that good these days) the resistors usually all line up with the tolerance band to the right/down.

I also have a thing about caps being straight.

You can tell if a build has pissed me off (or is a mini) as that all goes out of the window :)

That wiring is just mind blowingly good!

I swear I will intentionally wire something this neatly at least once; then promptly continue to just stuff all my wires under the board.

Your wiring is truly an inspiration to us all  :o  !!!
