Title: Cave Dweller II "Dub Edition" junction box
Post by: marmora on October 16, 2014, 10:12:14 PM
Built a couple of the OG Cave Dwellers over the years and have always been curious about the dual PT2399 version.
Flanagan0718 whipped me up a cool black PCB and I got to work. Had some trouble with this circuit boosting volume and acting a fool, but over the period of a month or so, I kept coming back to it and finally got it going. So don't give up!

Built in my go-to enclosure for personal builds, a simple junction box. No gut shots, built with a bunch of pre-cut spare wires and we all know what spaghetti looks like.

Controls from left to right: Time, Mix, Dwell

Momentary footswitch places a 47k resistor between lugs 3 and 1 of the Time control

Just a couple variances from the schematic:
R1: 680k
R2: 560k
R20: Empty
R12: Lowered, perhaps too much...might play with the value.

Looks great. This was the first delay I built and I still  use it today over a year ago. Its my goto delay since its so simple to dial in. I really love your demo, I really like your style and the noodling around you did. Great job.

Thanks for the comments guys. That video was made the day I finished the pedal, so I'm still finding new ways to use it.
I never really know what to play for demos after 30 or so videos, but I try to show chords, notes, the normal things the circuit does and the crazy stuff.
