Open Discussion / current lover and road rage.
April 28, 2015, 01:06:08 AM
Ok, I know this probably a stupid question. But here goes. I built the current lover with the 3007 bbd. As I read from alot of other people, I to had some undesirable distortion with it. I have a 3prr, and wanted to wire it up. My question is this. The 3prr calls for the 78l15 regulator. Is there a different regulator I van use, as I can't find one without making a special single item order to mouser or something like that. Thanx in advance guys.

Oldhousescott- do you if there are any layout for any of the ones you mentioned? I looked for over 2 hours and only found a few other than the condor.

Anything with an etch layout? Other than the condor I guess

Anyone know of a decent cab sim? I'm getting tired of lugging my band in a box boss br80, laptop, and speaker monitor to work. I'd like to just bring my guitar, 1 or 2 of my multi builds, a cab sim, and my headphones or monitor. Plus, when I change things up and bring a different guitar with me(actives instead of passive or vice versa) I have to spend time redoing "sweet spot" patches when I should just be practicing. Thanx in advance for any help.

It's a  old school peavey cab with cestio gt85's. Never heard of them until this guy gave me the cab. Right now it's 3 of those in there and an eminence governor. The governor is the only speaker hooked up. Had to have somethin to play through today while I finish building my other cab. Lol

It is a beast, more like a mini beast. Still trying to dial in the right tone. I've heard the smallest adjustments make a huge difference. They do. And I'm so used to the marshall/laney like eq, it's like starting over from scratch. And the clean tone that comes out of this on channel 1 is cleaner than anything I've ever played.

New amp day for me. HELL YEAH. Mesa boogie mark V 25. This bastard's friggin  loud dude. Takes pedals pretty well too. Boss tuner- vox wah- king of tone clone- opamp muff into the front end. Current lover- mxr wylde chorus- deep blue delay clone in the loop.

First American made amp I've ever owned. Everything else has all been British. I'm excited about this bad boy.

Thanx a bunch for all the help guys. As much as I would like to make an epic multi build, I think I'd be getting in over my head. Hopefully once my component order gets in, I'll be able to finish and box em up. Until then, I'll wait and try to finish the final wiring of my timmy, rat, russian muff multi.

Good to know. So I'm thinking the delay in the same enclosure would be a disaster waiting g to happen. But after looking at the build docs for the flanger and phaser, it looks as the flanger is the only one with a clock? Would I need to do anything out of the norm for wiring? Would I want to throw a 3prr board and charge pump on for increased voltage/headroom? Is the dpdt filter switch on the current lover a on-on switch, or on-off-on switch?

Once again, thanks a bunch guys,
Brandon

Fair enough. Lol. I had read juan solo's page regarding heterodyning and then Rej's (grind customs) build with a chorus, flanger, and phaser in one enclosure, and thought, I have no idea what this is (regarding g the heterodyning  thing). But I want to have my cake and eat it to. So the least amount of patch cablez, real estate, and hum, the better

Deal. But how do stop the heterodyning  that I've heard of? Is it a mix of signals, or a whine, buzz, or something else??

I want to build a multipedal. My issue is, I hear this "heterodyning" problem with putting multiple modulation effects in one enclosure.

1. What is it?
2. How can I prevent it?
3. The effects I plan on putting into one enclosure are a flanger (current lover), and a nom nom (phaser), and if possible an analog delay.

Thank you for any and all help everyone,
Brandon

Thank you both for your responses. I guess what I'm asking now, is what is the best sounding bbd for the current lover from the choices on the build guide. I was just under the impression that delays and modulation pedals sounded better with charge pumps for more head room. I guess that's 2 questions, but thanks again in advance.

Thanx a bunch. Now how about that current lover flanging type o' thing?

Open Discussion / charge pumps on modulation and delays

Hey Brian at madbean,

Would it be "better", headroom and sound wise if I wired up the zero point mini, current lover, and dirtbaby with the road rage and a charge pump for increased voltage?  If so, how would you do it, so a dumb fireman like can understand it?

Thanx in advance,
Brandon
