[IMG]http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pantherairsoft/Amp%20Cab%20Pedals/e52e47d5.jpg[/IMG] Dimensions of the pedal (excluding the lip of of the top)... 123mm x 65mm x 33mm. I can loose the battery compartment, as long as the battery snap is left stowed inside the unit so it can be put back in the original case in the future. That would reduce the length from 123mm by 20mm or so. Quote
Sibob Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 I did always think that Aguilar got the design of their enclosures wrong. Si Quote
simwells Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Would it not be easier to just get a machine shop to get some metal plate cut it to size bend and drill so it fits to where you'd expect it to? I suppose if you had to pay a proper shop it may not make sense money wise above putting it into a 125B or something. Quote
paul_5 Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Just did a sizeable order from Dr Tweek this evening - amazingly it seems to have cost less than half of what it would at Craplins - and the components are in stock! New trem and envelope filter pedals this weekend... Quote
pete.young Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) Does anyone have a circuit for putting an LED on a non-latching footswitch, so that it toggles on and off every time you press it? Edit: After doing a bit of research, what I need is apparently called a 'flip-flop' circuit. Presumably named after its French inventor, Phillipe Phelope :-) Edited August 29, 2012 by pete.young Quote

pete.young Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 I don't think so - that circuit is for a latching switch. For a non-latching switch it will just flash the LED when contact is made. I need something which will remember the state - it'll probably involve an IC, and using that to both turn on the LED and pass the signal to the effects unit. If I get anywhere with it, I'll post the results. Quote
Sibob Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I recently purchashed a Dwarfcraft 'The Great Destroyer' kit ([url="http://www.dwarfcraft.com/pedals"]http://www.dwarfcraft.com/pedals[/url]). It's a weird glitchy fuzz basically. Enclosure all comes drilled etc, so had a good friend paint it with something of her choice, she's the artist not me. [IMG]http://i47.tinypic.com/23r029z.jpg[/IMG] I do like the juxtaposition between the name of the pedal and the image : [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/n2g19i.jpg[/IMG] Cheers Si Quote

[/quote] Madbean does two boards, a tiny stock Rat and also a larger Rat with a couple of mods available. His boards are nice as well, but worth ordering a few to make it worth the postage so pick a few other projects you like the look of too. Alternatively, pedalparts.co.uk also do a Rat board I believe. Fun circuit to play about with, consider socketing most of the caps if you're tuning it for bass, particularly the dual RC network attached to pin 2 of the IC! Quote
pete.young Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 Thanks TG, a couple of good ideas there. The pedalparts one looks pretty good. I can feel a project coming on! Quote
Sibob Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Cool, cheers for the link. Have ordered the Slow Loris (Rat with Mods), plus you get a gain boost PCB free with December orders apparently Si Quote
TG Flatline Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 These may all be mentioned earlier in the thread, apologies if so, but here's a list of places selling good PCBs that I've used previously.

Cheers Si [/quote] 10k-25k are good starting points, depends how much variation you want. Have you got Duncan Tone Stack Calculator downloaded? Very useful, particularly if you want to tweak the other R/C components in the the tone stack. Also have a look at the way Blackout implement their mids control. Slight variation, worth breadboarding though. EDIT - Also, try using sockets for C6 and C9 (General Guitar Gadgets schematic) and playing with the values til you find what you're happy with. The mids mod and those two caps are the best place to start for making it your own! Edited January 8, 2013 by TG Flatline Quote
Sibob Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Sure, thanks for the info, I'll be working from the GGG Green Russian schem when the PCB arrives, and also from this Mids mod: http://rkerkhof.ruhosting.nl/Taas/Mods/Big%20Muff.htm Is that a 25k log or Lin pot? Cheers Si Quote

Wire the 3.3k resistor across lugs 2 and 3 of the mids pot and then replace the resistor on the PCB with this new arrangement and you're winning. Quote
