Quote from: brazdj on October 25, 2024, 11:24:09 PMHola Madbean,
Super pumped for the next set (finally MN chips are readily available!). Any update on timeframe for releases? I know you are super busy and am very appreciative of all the hard work.

Take care,
DJB

Yeah sorry. Everything is in a bit of a holding pattern right now. But, I expect to finish this release up within a week or two. Appreciate everyone's patience.

There's no gain applied at IC1 since there is no voltage divider off the inverted pin. So, my best guess is that this application is for low frequency attenuation. It definitely is weird.

C3 is indeed 100nF. I just forgot to change the library part. It is a strange arrangement but it's correct.

Of course not. If I had one I'd do the same.

Okay, we're on beantime now. Still working on project docs. It's a haul but we'll see how far I can get over the next few days.

Quote from: xconverge on September 23, 2024, 11:12:15 PMTotally random too... but the shopping list for the sludgehammer has 4x 2u2 electrolytics listed (at least in the previous rev of the doc), but only actually needs 3

I was just looking through my components for a 2.2uf capacitor for a different project and got lucky with this typo to have a spare laying around, so I was appreciative of it, but figured if you are revving the doc you may want it up to date.

Thanks for that. There are a few other doc updates that are due so I will get all those taken care of. I'm shooting for Saturday for release. I have 5 projects that are being rebuilt and those are almost done.

Quote from: xconverge on September 23, 2024, 03:04:22 AMThanks, sounds good!

I always put the pots in the drilled enclosure and then fit the finished pcb to it before soldering them all. This method I have made work even when I forgot to print at 100% scale so if it is remotely close I don't for-see any issues, it is super forgiving, even for a tight build like this one!

It is also a bare aluminum enclosure, so nothing fancy like predrilled/powder coated/uv printed, so I am not in it for too much :)

Here's the overlay. The red outlines are the new drill spots. You can see the bottom row of pots is slightly lower. However, if you have a drill you can overdrill each of the 6 pots just slightly larger and I believe it will fit. But, the bypass LED is in a different place, too. If that's too much hassle, I'll get a small batch of the old boards for you on my next manufacturing order.

Quote from: xconverge on September 22, 2024, 11:16:36 PMI can be patient and wait for it to come up/docs showup... but SludgeHammer says - 2024 revision, did anything change in the BoM or enclosure spacing/drill template for this? I had an enclosure drilled and BoM purchased (to save on shipping for a few projects at once) for the previous rev of docs (2021?) and am wondering if I will need/want to buy a new enclosure or other parts?

Thanks!

I'll check the drill template but it should be very very close. The vast majority of the updates are just changing out for new library parts and moving the drill spots slightly to a millimeter grid. If there too much movement I will get you one of the previous boards. The new SludgeHammer does include a bypass board - that's the only "circuit" change I think.

Any chance you can update the archives with the docs for all of the pre-"2024 update" versions of the boards from the past few releases and the most recently discontinued 1590a boards?

Im trying to tackle my backlog, and realized I don't have many of the docs downloaded

Yes, I will do that for sure. In the meantime email me with any project docs you are lacking and I will get them to you right away.

Also, the Tone Virus is listed twice.

Haha, no Sept actual time. Believe it or not I've stuck to my release schedule the last 2-3 months.

I'll delete the extra entry, thanks Jimi. Also a Degenerator is coming your way. I did not forget.

Global Annoucements / September release update
September 22, 2024, 12:34:02 AM
I've updated the Projects Page with the expected releases for this month. It's another huge round and will release by the end of Sept.

There will still be some more updated older projects for Oct but most of the focus for the remainder of the year will be brand new projects. And, there are many coming!

After this round in Sept. I'm gonna put the wife to work on getting the store updated finally.

Now that is a fine design! I love some of the innovative features you used in this.

Very sad to hear this news. BYOC was a pioneer in the diy pedal community.

I'll fix the BOM, thanks.

Quote from: satchmo1991 on September 06, 2024, 10:02:26 PMLike the title says, the current .pdf for StageFright24 is missing R51 which according to the schematic should be a 4k7 current limiting resistor for the status LED. Just thought you should know! 

Ah, yes. Quite right. I will make an update. Thank you!
