this was about 11 or 12 hours of soldering....

LOL!   Thats what my desk looks like at the moment too!

OVERACHIEVER!

Joke! Looks beautiful. Let us know how that echo base turns out--I accidentally had my iron too hot and nuked my board..,

DUDE!!! your a beast. i need to get ON my shit!!!
+1 on the musicpcb boards. what's your solution to the tap tempo boards needed for the echobase and the tremolo?

[jkokura]

err... I only count 4 spacklers.







Heehee...

Nice!!
What is the clean octave down??

Define Nuked. Traces are nothing more than little flat electrical connections. If you lifted and ruined a trace, just follow it upstream to the component it runs to, solder in your jumper wire and you are back in business.

I was recently adding a tone cap switch to a populated board. I MURDERED those traces trying to pull the old caps (It pays to be patient and get the right glasses so you can see what you are doing). Four jumpers and 15 minutes later, all was well with the world.

B_of_H,
Wow!  Impressive.  I am jealous.  I only have three partially populated boards on my "bench"/folding table.

jk...nice catch.  yeah one of them was out of the pic most likely.

I found a diagram for the taptation on perfboard via diystompboxes.  haven't built it yet.  (i wish the ptap was still available!  sucks big time)

the tremolo has built in tap tempo and the pcb comes with the IC. 

Nice!!
What is the clean octave down??

musicpcb.com project based on the Boss OC-2.  I'm going to build it out with the envelope synth mod on a switch (or maybe just a knob)

I built one up and it was okay. it's really glitchy alot like a clean version of a blue box. you can't play more than one note at a time.

I'd like to see that diagram! 
Thats good to know about the tremelo. I'm interested in building another one since my BYOC first build. I'm still trying to decide between that musicpcb board and the tremelus lune. both seem really cool and versatile...

it's supposed to be monophonic ala the boss oc-2

I've built the ea trem, byoc 2 knob version of the ea trem, and the tremulus lune.

I think the lune is by far the most versatile and probably has the best sound but the ea/byoc are great and simple to use.  We'll see how they compare though, I'd think that the tap trem and the trem lune are probably pretty similar tone wise.

Yeah, it probably could have been salvaged but after some very unsuccessful de-soldering and amazingly successful colorful language, I threw it across the room and reclaimed my sanity. I'll most likely do another echo base one of these days...
