I haven't built a pedal since August and I think I've forgotten everything I knew.  Most of the trouble I had with it was self inflicted.  When I rocked it, I got no sound.  I went around checking voltages, flipping the polarized caps that were supposed to be non-polarized caps, turning knobs etc.  Voltages were all good and I got sound in bypass, but for some reason I was getting nothing with the circuit engaged-even with the audio probe there was no sound anywhere.  I was just about to toss it in the box of fail when I got the idea to switch my input and output.  Bingo!  I'd plugged my input into the output and vice versa 

Then the graphics.  I couldn't remember which paper I use for my toner transfers, and none of them seemed to work anymore.  I ended up going with magazine paper, but the transfer still came out grungy.  Still don't know what I was doing wrong.

I haven't played with it much yet, but so far I like it.  I'll try to get a quick demo of it up later this week.

Sweet build.
Why is your photo host provider telling me that the content is X-rated?

I don't know?  Could be a default.  Sorry to let you down    I'll go check it out...

Love the name and the graphics! LED placement is awesome.

Clearly it has something to do with the LED placement.

We all love a well placed LED!

I know what it is to stop building for a while..... almost a year clean. And every time I see my soldering iron I feel deeply sad...
I'll have to assume I'm not finishing my thesis before easter and rock some of my pcbs....

That said. This one came awesome. It is nice to revive some newby moments once in a while, it happens to me every time I have to do some programming work again in a platform I haven't touched for some time.

great build man, looks fantastic

[rullywowr]

Haha. That's great!  The name and LED is hilarious. Nice looking build.

I dunno, a grungy look works for the theme you used

Pretty sweet work!

[Hogharry]

Great theme, great build.

Your PCB building skills are still primo!   I've made that input/output mistake several times. It's tricky when the whole damn thing is flipped upside down.

Dat Led! Clever.

Thanks for the encouragement guys    On the upside I've been playing my guitar a lot more and actually using the pedals I've built.  My band played a gig recently and I used all DIY stuff-my amp, pedals, guitar-and got compliments on the guitar sound, so that feels pretty good.

Fleshlight? 

LOL
