Hello all and thank you Madbean for all your great work!!!

I've just finished a Quadrovibe, using a 14V/40mA light bulb instead of the 18V/28mA requiered (it was impossible to me to find one here, in Bucharest).

The problem it's that the lamp doesn't blink (it lock up or blink a little and fade out after I'm modifying the Gain or Chop trimpot).

The LFO works OK (the LED it's blinking), the signal passes in both modes (vibrato/tremolo), the T1 trimpot works.

I used a 1K trimpot for gain instead of 500 ohms and a 25K trimpot instead the 20K trimpot.

Best regards,
Radu

I am completely stupid...I didn't solder the LED...I thought that it's only for bypass, so I put it for a few seconds, without soldering it, on the back of the PCB to test the LFO and after I removed it ;D

Thank you again Brian for all your fabulous work!

Thanks for that!  :D
I've been trying to figure out why mine wasn't flashing- had omitted the Led ::)
