Downside, is they have a $300 minimum.

I'd be down to group buy some BBD if they're reasonably priced.

I'd say crunch should be a toggle

Anybody want to sell me one for my wah project? Or we could trade a few for a PCB when it's verified.

Wow, that was a great deal! Can't wait to hear/see the hacking...

There was a project in FSB (I think it came from a magazine) that hacks a pair of cassette recordings to build a guitar Echo, maybe it can help you with this.

This?

Finish of my relay switching project and then start my tap tempo LFO code hopefully I can PIF some PCBs when I'm finished.

Love the knobs! where'd you get them from?

Exactly my thoughts. I need a MN3011 to repair a DOD FX45 too and they're one of the only places to buy them on ebay.

*This may be in the wrong section move if necessary*

Okay, I know zero about BBD in terms of purchasing them and what to look out for. I've got a few pedals that are almost finished but just need a few BBD chips. I was thinking of purchasing from the ebay seller "hkutsource". Is there anything I should be wary of?

I've been lazy and haven't gotten round to my order... I suppose being lazy pays off??? 

That said, it's very durable with a compatible finish.  I have an extra box here that they had a minor goof-up with (they accidentally deleted part of the artwork).  I can't use it, so I've tried to get the UV off and I haven't found anything that will remove it.  It even stood up to carefully applied acetone.  In the end, I'll probably just sand the top off of the enclosure.

Yep, I've got two enclosures that I had made spelling mistakes and artwork doesn't line up with the PCB I made. I've also used acetone. I've tried sanding it with 2000 grit paper on my kitchen marble countertop and it sanded through the layer of power coat. Kind patch gold and silver...

This is why I like the Madbean Forum! 

I've used them in a few builds. They're pretty good. Depending on the price difference I would just go for the panasonics

It's not huge, just pricing different brands to see if there's any major differences in price.

I may order some nichicon film caps. They're a little cheaper. Anybody have experience with them? I think I've seen them in builds some where.

Nice!

What's the signal's path?

I'd like to breadboard one of these but where are they sold? I've only been able to find TAD but that's in Europe. I live in Canada so I'd prefer to keep it in North America.

It's probably obvious and I've missed it
