Two Lectric FX Pedals (EHX The Clone Theory & A/DA Flanger)

[Antoy]

Few days ago finished two Lectric FX builds. The most acid chorus/vibrato - The Clone Theory (Celeste chorus) and one of the most advanced flangers in the analog world - A/DA Flanger (Flintlock Flanger). Everything started to work just after the boxing without any problems. Tuning ADA Flanger was a challenge, because I don`t own a frequency-meter. So I went with a pedal and a power brick to the shop of electronic components and other stuff and mocked the shop assistant for about 1,5 hours, using (trying?) a showcase professional expencive multimeter.   Now pedal flanges completely as original device! Thanks Keefe for amazing PCBs - that was a great experience!


Sorry for by bad english! Greetings from snowy Moscow!

Nice builds, man.

Great work!

GREAT work, really like em, fantastic stuff, now I wanna build that clone theory.

[Guybrush]

Great work all round!

Please can I ask how noisey, if at all, you find the clone theory. I love my Celeste build but I'm about to start doing some debugging as it has quite a loud hiss and I get some ticking bleeding through when bypassed.

Keep up the good work!

Hello! Thank you for the praise! No ticking noticed at all! That`s a circuit of a vintage effect and no wonder that it has some subtle hiss. But for me that noise is almost imperceptible. Read the build documentation carefully - probably it could help you with the ticking problem! Good luck! It`s an extraordinary chorus!

It's just so... so tasteful. Kinda brings a tear to my eye.

Beautiful graphics.

Really nice work!

Beauties! I need to get building on that A/DA

[monkeyssj1]

They both look great, but that clone theory hits the pro mark.

Wow.  Congrats, 2 epic builds... well done!

Beautiful builds inside and out.  I love the clone theory nod to the original.  I agree that both these do supreme justice to the original pedals with available parts.  The A/DA was way beyond my budget back in it's original days but sounded a bit more exotic than the MXR flanger and the EHX Clone was late to the game towards the tail end of the chorus era.  I think it got passed over originally and is a really great example of chorus for people that don't really like chorus.  Lectric FX did a sweet nod to both of them.

Thank you, guys! By the way, I changed the sticker yesterday. Now it looks more classic. And yeah! I think chorus MUST be BLUE!
