Title: Bypass Level on Aions BlueShift
Post by: BrianS on September 22, 2017, 03:23:05 PM
Can someone who has built one of these tell me how loud your bypass signal is?   When I first put mine together I got no bypass at all but the effect worked.  After reviewing the updated build doc I had some wires in the wrong place and fixed that.  Now I have bypass but it's very faint.  I wired this for traditional bypass.  Almost everything I've build in the past month has a problem and it's really getting frustrating.  I'm sure this isn't how it's suppose to sound and as usual something is jacked.

Mine will be traditional bypass as well when I finish wiring it.  Hopefully, I'll find enough time this weekend for that, and I'll report back.

Reporting back.
Bypass on mine is nearly the same level as the effect, only ever-so-slightly less. 

Did you remember to jumper pads D-E and G-H and ground pad B?

Yeah. I have a ground problem somewhere.  If I put my thumb over the bottom of the board around the opto device it comes up to unity.  I'm in the middle of restoring a 50 year old Delta Jointer so my focus has dropped off of pedals for the time being.  Thanks for answering back though.
