Title: Late to the party.... 1776-Multiplex....
Post by: GrindCustoms on October 07, 2013, 04:05:40 AM
This circuit have been populated for months.....never got at boxing it because i thought i would match it up with another circuit....finally declined that option and decided to go 125B.... :D

Wow! This is crazy Reg! Did you have to sand the PCB down to fit it in there? Great build!  :o

Didn't even think a 125B was an option. Wow! Looks really cool, too.

Thanks Man!

I did'nt sanded the pcb....that's something i don't like to do because in some case it will expose the ground planes or live signal traces....

I just pushed the pcb down as it could go, extended the pots legs because they where definitly too short and shimmed the rotary switch with 2 jack washer so it fits snugs with the enclosure.

If i had'nt been stupid with the footswitch drilling and thought of screw post space they take......moved the I/O a bit forward and drill them so they are flush with the bottom of the enclosure.....they would have slip a bit under the pcb giving all the place needed for everything......

For the 2 Time and Feedback pots i directly cut the lugs/legs of the pots and soldered solid core extension instead....other wise they where sticking on the sidewall of the enclosure and short would occur....

Wait couple weeks, PickDropper will make a SMT layout and fit two of those in a 1590A! hahahaha! ;)

Rej, you are obviously a glutton for punishment. I would have trouble with fitting that in a  milk crate, much less a 125:P

Hahaha, not bloody likely, although I'll do a layout if you promise to find a way to for 8 pots and 2 rotary switches in a 1590a. .  :-)

Great build, Rej.  Very tight quarters in there and it looks cool on the outside, too.
