i strongly suggest breadboarding this before building....some are more prone to clicking than others....experimenting with this first is a must!...

what's the name of the drawing package that Perrow has used on the previous page?

I use eagle for PCBs, but need to do a couple of physical 'easy on the eye' guitar wiring layouts & that looks like it might be a contender.

Looks like DIY layout creator to me, it's great for guitar wiring layouts and is dead easy to use.
Forum member and creator Bancika has it on his site over here http://diy-fever.com/.

DIYLC as stated. "Easy on the eye", thanks

I guess that's what I'm shooting for (although maybe not while drawing the wiring above).

ps. If you really want an "easy on the eyes", check this one http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=86389.msg741787#msg741787

Hi, has anyone tried building this version yet?
I'd love a review and/or a sound sample! This trem will definitely be my next project, I just have to decide which version to go for... $:-\$

hi magnus, ive had it running on breadboard, as the name says it fades the led on/6ff rather than being choppy on/6ff..

very smooth light action....as always breadboard it first....cmos555 too ok... hope this helps. rob.

Manny · « **Reply #369 on:** January 17, 2011, 06:58:07 AM »

Hi Magnus,

I've also tried both versions, with and without the transistor and have had success with both using a standard 555 and the cmos version.
Let us know how you get on.

mrsuspend · « **Reply #370 on:** January 17, 2011, 07:22:37 AM »

Will do!

I had an old ldr lying around so all I need to order is the 555.
A 2N2924 would do for testing purposes I guess?

Thanks!

Have any of Perrow's been verified?

markeebee · « **Reply #376 on:** January 17, 2011, 02:37:50 PM »

Ah. Choices.

I was thinking of Perrow's layout on page 18. Looks kosher to me. However if you think any other version is the way to go, I'll go with the flow. Happy to do a couple or three versions (for each of us) so they can be compared.

Over to you.....

Perrow · « **Reply #377 on:** January 19, 2011, 03:20:32 PM »

I've heard from reasonably reliable sources that Perrow himself would love to get an etched board (he's been promised one before but never gotten one), he does not live in the UK but another kingdom not that far away and rumour has it he'd be willing to transfer postage over Paypal

mrsuspend · « **Reply #378 on:** January 19, 2011, 04:39:55 PM »

Manny, I understand you used the NE555, what were the issues?
I can see in the thread you had some problems with the timer, did you eventually resolve them for both modes?

Thanks!

/Magnus

markeebee · « **Reply #379 on:** January 19, 2011, 05:01:24 PM »

Perhaps the reliable source could arrange for Perrow to PM me his address?
