Open Discussion / Anybody buy from Electronix Express?
September 18, 2024, 10:00:43 PM

They have a decent selection and pricing that is reasonable. Components and such, not so much the hardware.

I might have to make a small order and see what happens.

Open Discussion / BYOC is shutting down
September 17, 2024, 12:28:47 PM
End of an era, lads. I built my first ever pedal in 2006 from a BYOC kit (Distortion + clone). And the forum was pretty much the nicest place you could hope to find for building pedals. I hope Keith and family are moving on to something better for them.

I saw the news on reddit, but apparently they sent out an email announcement, along with a 40% off coupon code. So maybe take advantage of the sale and send off BYOC in style?

Lot of good work you're doing here.  ;D

I'm working my laser today, actually. Making some pedal faceplates.

Late to the party, but yes you definitely can use that setup in a Tubescreamer.

Nice. Nothing like new test gear!

Diode will work if you get at least 10W of power. 10 works, but it does take several passes. The 20W diodes are coming down in price. If you have the scratch, get the 20W. I have a 10 and it works fine, but it does take a while. Cuts wood pretty well too, but obviously 20 would be better/faster/cleaner.

I'm kind of on the opposite side. While I don't want to see AI replacing artists whole cloth  I'm super excited to see how it will benefit society as a whole in the coming years. There are lots of problems in physics and science in that AI may finally help us solve. Esp. In tandem with the coming quantum computing revolution. And, AI as a tool working with artists might produce whole new realms of creation we haven't even imagined. Of course it's going to be used and abused, too. It's inevitable.

This is kind of where my head is at. I am cautiously optimistic about advancement in machine learning. The upside potential is massive, but so is all the bad stuff...pretty much like other technologies, although I think this one is perhaps closer to the magnitude of nuclear technology than anything else we've seen so far.

Good to see you back, buddy.  :)

To my surprise I found out that there was still a follow up to the effort that was put in couple years ago and it's what got me to log back in. Also realized that some resources from those past projects are a bit scattered so with the help of well known member, will try to make those BOM/Instructions readily and easily available.

If you need any help with this, please let me know.
