Hi guys,

I have that weird need to add blend or signal mix control to Current Lover.
My idea was to use 100kB pot and mix signal fom the guitar but before CL circuit. Center lug as a guitar input and two other as main output and input of the circuit.

I'm just not sure if I see it correctly. Searching through google about that many says something about stereo pots and active circuits. But in recently built CE-2 you can just toss a pot in series with another resistor and that's all!

Your help will be much appreciated

Hi guys!

After some time fighting by myself to debugg this project I gave up and I kindly ask you for help. Although it's my second time building Dirtbaby it never started at first kick. Always something to check..

Problem I have this time is that effects seems to not do much. I get a clean signal through, pots kinda works but they only modulated clock noise, no wet signal at all.

Voltages are fine, except IC4:

1- 8,14V (doc: 4,24V)
2- 0,4V (doc: 4,24V)
3- 3,76V (doc: 3,9V)
4- 0V (doc: 0V)
5- 8,12V (doc: 4,23V)
6- 8,13V doc: 4,24V)
7- 8,14V (doc: 4,24V)
8- 8,68V (doc: 8,89V)

I wanted to check circuit with audio probe but have no idea which pins need to be checked.

Thank you so much in advance for your time and help!

Hello everyone!

I'm in big need to debug my Current Lover builds. Yes, I have 3 boards in progress and none of them works properly. I mean that before calibration I do get a clean signal (which is good) but during calibration sometimes I reach nasty clock clicking noise or very poor flanging (practicaly no jet flanging at all) comparing to what you can find on YouTube. I made a run through every single resistor and cap, tried to swap ICs and I'm kinda hopeless.



Here are my voltages:

And the PCB itself:

Is there anybody able to debud this board? Can it be faulty MN3007 chip?
Thank you soooo much in advance

Hello guys!

I came today to you with big need to solve a problem with popping circuit.

There is one polish website/shop which sales DIY PCBs. I dediced to mod "splitter" board to use together with ABY switch routing.
Of course "splitter" circuit wasn't designed for adding footswithes, but I figured out to put switches routing between 1st lug of one of TL072 and later route signal to each channels before C4 and C5 caps. All works as it should, but as you might expect there is this nasty popping while switching each channels. I contacted designer of this board with question how to fix this but I only got answer with something about "grounding resistors" while caps are disconnected.

Is there anyone who could explain me how to add these resistors? What value and how/where connect them to ground?

Thank you in advance,

So.. I'm proud to present you one of the best build I've ever done. Classic Moodring circuit without any extra mods in nice clean orange enclosure. Simple as this! Enjoy!
