Another question about Bumblebee Compressor/Swell

[Ariosto]

Could someone please inform me about the correct orientation of the Opto NSL32-R3? (Absolutely no reference in the PCB or in the PDF)

Thanks a lot

Reference the page 2 notes of the build document and the pcb image. The orientation is addressed there.

Absolutley, thanks Benny

THANKS BENNY!

And my next question is, if I could replace the original Relay TQ2-L-5V for something else. I cannot find that here in Germany (except Mouser, but the shipping costs are astronomics).

Thanks again!

I don't know of a direct substitution. Check the data sheet of other 5V DPDT relays if you can find any.

If you're in Germany, this may help:

Yes! It is supposedly the same recommended in the PDF! With Banzai Music I had a rough discussion years ago, when they lost me an order and I wrote them an email saying that I would NEVER buy them any other product.......... Ugh, OK, time to re-negotiate!
