Title: Think I might have bitten off more than I can chew with the current build...
Post by: juansolo on April 08, 2014, 05:43:20 PM
It's bloody tight!

Got the switching in today. That took 4hrs, and there's not a lot of room left (1590D). A little annoyed with the Tayda momentary as it bounces a bit. Which is made more irritating that I can't actually take it apart now to do anything about it without starting again. Bah! I'll put up with it occasionally jumping effects. But I'd have to sort it if I was building for anyone else.

I suspect I might have it done by Sunday... I've got 5 more pedals to strip and re-house into it (there's already one in there).

I suppose I wanted a challenge.  :o

I think I might have a switch solution. If you're using that bubba switcher board, I had to change a resistor value and I might have not gone back to change the schematic.

Let me go look and I'll report back.

Sure enough. R8 should be 220k instead of 220R. Sorry, bud. I forgot all about that.

Oooh, I'll see if I can cheat that out from the top :) Might be able to get away with it. Getting the board out now is a bit of an issue ;) It's quite solidly mounted...

Cheers!  8)

I literally smacked my head the second I saw your post because I knew EXACTLY what you were dealing with. I need to PM Dave since he got the other board.

We can sort him out with relays if he's struggling to get them. I think we've got 15 left.
