Title: Final version of Lovetone Doppelganger clone
Post by: LaceSensor on May 10, 2014, 11:32:18 AM
Finally got round to verifying the 2.1d boards
Had the case drilled for months! Just time. I can now order these, as Jacob (JMK) did the gerbers for me ages ago :)
Sounds and functions perfectly, and now the wiring is much neater and the silkscreen is perfect, thanks Jacob.

Which pots and toggle switches did you use? I'm working on one of the boards right now, and I'm wondering about the heights of these since they are board mounted.

I finished mine late yesterday night (be ready for the build report) and I used 9mm pots (the ones with the hooks on the side to go through the bigger holes in the pcb) and regular switches like these (http://www.musikding.de/Kippschalter-SPDT-1x-UM-flacher-Hebel). At first I had some problems with small height differences, but taking the first nut of the switches solved it.

9mm pots by alpha
Tayda/Sci style toggles...

Great stuff, I'm going to have to try this lovetone stuff soon. Is that Doctor Tweek shielded wire?

Just wanted to chime in and say that after I got my board finished I hooked it up and played Lace's YouTube video comparing it to the Original and this one sounds identical. I'm really impressed. Great job you guys!

Now to get it boxed...the bane of my pedal building existence...
