Quote from: sffwy on April 15, 2024, 12:09:39 PMThe cutoff frequency is fixed and 6db/oct is fine. (The filter I used was 18db/oct or higher, but as far as I can tell that seems difficult to do with a simple circuit).
If the recovery stage has a capacitor for the low pass filter, it would be very useful for me if I could switch the value between the original and the low pass filter.

Alright but at WHAT frequency..?? :icon_wink:

Quote from: dperry on April 15, 2024, 07:26:10 AMI have noticed the Inchdown Redux (DeadendFX Echomachine clone) has a repeat hold button, but the schematic is incomplete, how would I go about adding this to the circuit?

The DEFX Inchindown schematic is spread over the last two pages, and is complete.
Take a closer look. :icon_eek:

Quote from: sffwy on April 15, 2024, 08:02:47 AMIs there a guideline value for C? If so, it would be very helpful.

It depends both on LPF cut-off frequency of your taste and EQ variable output impedance..
(so proceed to trial and error process..)

P.S.
May I ask the reason for LPF ..??

Sometimes in my environment I need to input directly through EQ and DI into the mixing console. (This happens only a few times a year, but it's a problem if I can't do it.)
The output from the full range speakers is fine for clean tones and saturation, but distortion is very unpleasant because you hear overtones that should be cut by electric guitar amp speakers.

So I used to carry 4u rack mount EQ and filters that I didn't know if I would ever use.

The cutoff frequency is fixed and 6db/oct is fine. (The filter I used was 18db/oct or higher, but as far as I can tell that seems difficult to do with a simple circuit).
If the recovery stage has a capacitor for the low pass filter, it would be very useful for me if I could switch the value between the original and the low pass filter.

Another reason is that i want to take full advantage of what you have designed for us.

Building your own stompbox / Re: "Noise Ensemble" - simple ...
Last post by chip - April 15, 2024, 11:49:18 AM
This is an oldie, I realize, but I wanted to build a Noise Ensemble and most of the original image files of the schematics seem to have gone away.

I have no way of telling if this was exactly what was intended, but I tried to draw it based on Parasit's layout and thought it might be helpful to someone else.




I did build it, including the feedback mod from Parasit, and it came out way better than I expected: https://dunningkrugerfx.com/fiasco

Adding black behind florescent is a good idea.

On the Ibanez stock RG, think hsh, and Samuel whatever their stock is, and hsh or ssh...both 5 way selector.

I was thinking next time I play with Pete I should test the voltage out from his guitar compared to the voltage out from my guitars

QuoteI also think the screengrab you posted is from an older vero layout (or one I screwed up on, probably more likely that).

well sir, one is both the same. I looked at your latest posted layout update, and it seems to me to match the one that I cut up and circled. so. back to you.

M. S. = what type pickups on your non-LP - single or hb? one thing I've noticed messing w/ breadboard is just how reactive the frontend is to the selector switch.
