Hey guys, long time no post. All my pedals have been a success thus far. I finished the envelope filter, the compressor and the muff with mid boost. The "mid" pot on the muff works as required, however, when turned completely counter clockwise, it cuts out the sound out altogether. I imagine...

I'm literally in the middle of doing the same thing. Hopefully trying to add a pot to scoop and boost the mids. Do a google search for "big muff mods" and you should get a bit of info. Keep me posted how you go. I've recently started to build effects myself.

Has anyone heard or seen anything about the 2 new bbe compressors? I've only seen the stuff on their website.

Hey guys. Does anyone have any suggestions on the grounding wires? I've used a star ground from the input jack sleeve to the dc jack, the circuit, the footswitch and the output jack sleeve. I am making a bass fuzz, and I am getting bypass signal and LED works, but no effect signal. I suspect...

Hey guys, I'm working on the big muff at the moment. I'm adding a mids boost pot to the effect which shouldn't be too difficult. I am just wondering where each if the pot lugs are soldered to. I imagine one or two lugs would go back to the pcb, but which one? And where would the other be...

Not too concerned about the fuzz/distortions, however I would be keen to hear how the compressor sounds...

Can you do any audio recordings?

Sorted the looper blender out and now works fine with the LED. Now working on an envelope filter, and trying to finish off the bazz fuss and Ross comp clone.

Tested the Splitter and it works fine. Just need to figure out the issue with the LED. Hopefully wont be too much. Then i will move on to finishing the Bazz Fuss and Envelope filter.

It's not horrendously messy, just I only have one colour wire and is hard to see what is where. Reflows all the solder points on the pot lugs. Not PCB mounted, I've made this on vero. I'll try and get a photo, but I feel like it is something to do with the pot. I'll try what you said ibanez.

Update on the bazz fuss. Took it all apart and resoldered the grounds. Put it back in and had bypass, no signs of shortage (power supply light not flashing), no effect signal when engaged. I put a bit of pressure on the pot lugs and had faint sound, but nothing when I would take my finger off. I...

Hey guys, just wanted to give an update/seek more advice haha. At this stage my builds are as follows: single knob bazz fuss with led and 3pdt, a GGG Ross compressor, a buff n blend splitter looper and GGG ef440 envelope filter. Have a few questions for each: Bass fuzz- all soldered, sound...

The guitarist has a joyo tremolo. I tried it out and thought it was pretty good. The LED is pretty funky. If I could find an application for one myself, I would think it would suffice. Can't compare to the mooer, as I haven't tried it. I think the majority of Joyo stuff is pretty good, and can...

Yeah pretty sure it's a grounding issue, as out of the enclosure works (reasonably) fine and in the enclosure bypass works, but nothing when engaged. Its my first "proper" effects build, donuts a bit messy and with longer than necessary wires. I'm thinking that I may need to order and drill a...

I just modded a bad monkey and it sounds surprisingly good, so good that I want to keep it. I'm about to make a blueberry od, tuned big muff with mids control and a loop blender. Ill let you know how it goes!

Update. I've taken everything out of the enclosure and it works fine. maybe a slight hum/buzz. Do you think this is a grounding issue? Should I tape all of the solder connections with electrical tape? What's my moves from here?

Ok... Led works fine. Powering the effect when it is not engaged, no sound, however touching the input and output jacks I can hear signal. When the effects is engaged, only "signal" on the output, not input..... Thoughts?

It is just a usual 2.1mm DC jack. Haven't had dramas with them before. Metal inside, plastic outside... Im fairly certain I have wired it right.

All I can think is that a component is touching the enclosure somewhere. As I said, out of the enclosure it was working fine. Once it was put back in, I had nothing. I will go and have another look. I will post some pics soon aswell. What do you mean about the power supply? The jack or the...

Hey guys. I recently started building a GGG Ross compressor. I sourced all the parts myself and bought the pcb from GGG. I have followed all the steps and diagrams to the best of my ability. I started mounting everything into the enclosure and tested it. I had no signal (bypass or engaged)...

Thanks for the help man! Really appreciate it! I'm getting there with the wiring. I think I understand where I went wrong. Once I finish my first four projects, ill be moving on to this one. Where abouts in aus are you from?

Hey Ibanez, Thank you for all your help man. If i could continue to be a pain, im looking at building a clone of a Blueberry OD. Can you see if how i have wired this looks ok? Excuse the poor drawing in PS again. Ill let you know how all these ventures go!

In your opinion, would it be necessary to add a phase toggle switch?

Do you think I should just bite the bullet and go for the b.blender? I've only opted for the buff n blend because it looks slightly easier of what I have seen. I might try and draw up a wiring diagram for the looper with the b.blender, as I find it easier to do the job this way.

Hey Ibanez, Cheers for the info. All i want to do is add a mid cut/boost to a Big Muff (think Grey Stache). And, then in a separately enclosure (completely new pedal) make an effects loop that i can blend with my clean bass sound. (e.g. distortion in loop then blend with my clean signal). I...

Hi Guys, Ive recently started to build my own stompbox pedals, and am looking to progress with this hobby. I have literally started out with NO knowledge of electronics, just a drive to build something that i want rather than paying obscene amounts of money for. I have built 2 A/B boxes for...

How much are these bad boys going to cost? (ball park figure)...

If you could post some clips, that would be excellent! Can't decide what I want, but this is at the top of the list.

I have been considering the Hardwire CM2 for a long time now, and will probably buy one. However, I saw a YouTube video today of the Joyo Ultimate Drive and was very impressed. After watching distortion and overdrive videos all day, I was a bit surprised by this one. Has any heard any clips of...

If you buy one champ, you have to let us know how it goes and post some sound clips. I'm in the market for a reverb aswell.

Also, has anyone had any experience with the emg btc control? especially with their mmcs pickups? Any feedback would be awesome.

Hi Guys, After alot of research and reading and not being able find much i thought i would post my questions to see if anyone has the answers.... Im looking at having a custom bass made and have a few questions in regards to the electronics. Im a bit of a noob when it comes to this sort of...

+1. I like it more than the bass version. More versatile and more crisp.

+1 on the hardwire

Has ANYONE ever tried the joyo/Harley Benton classic flanger? I know it's a cheap one, but am keen to here some reviews on bass, as it sounds pretty good on guitar...

Has anyone had any experience with the joyo flanger? Does it lose lose low end or become muddy on bass? Has anyone tried the joyo power supply for effects pedals? If so, what are your thoughts? Does anyone know when the new line will is available? Thanks...

Yo muthafunk and tracer03, Just wondering how you guys are going with your ultimate octaves? Still working/in one piece? Been on a bit of a pedal search and still considering this bad boy... Sound clip sounds good, just wondering on your thoughts towards the octave up feature? How would it...

Took a chance and bought the crusher. I'm glad the I did. It is a pretty high gain distortion that I think borderlines on fuzz. The eq is what helps this pedal. For a cheapish distortion, it is effective, versatile and I would suggest it to others.

Yeah, I was afraid that this would be the case. I have a bsw and while it has alot of cool settings, I feel that there are only a few that I can use in a band setting. I guess I can at least try one out, but I feel I will come to the same conclusion. I do feel that the boss is a superior unit...

Thanks guys. I do like the boss. I know what it is capable of, and enjoy the versatility. The bf3 will be the ideal option, however i also wanted to know how many people have tried the digitech. How does it stack up to the boss? Will this pedal give me what I need, or do I need to go for the...
