Title: Octagon Build
Post by: gordo on February 19, 2018, 02:57:06 AM

These FV-1 boards are really nice to build once you get over the fear of the SMT chip(s). Low parts count and nothing really exotic.

This is PedalPCB's Octagon. The killer feature on this one, besides the fact that the 8 presets are all very cool, is the pot/digital switch. Rotating the pot by about 20 degrees changes to the next preset. No switching noise. Crafty stuff here.

PedalPCB switch board. BLMS knobs, jacks, switch, and enclosure. Waterslide decal. I realized as I was uploading the photos that I bumped one of the electros out of whack and I'm way too lazy to open it up and reshoot.

Pedal graphics are great. Wish I was that good at it.
