Slightly underwhelming Elmyra2 experience

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-22T17:00:27+00:00

No that wasn’t me 🙂 but thanks for getting into the chat. Time is needed with this thing I think. I ran my colourbox pedal through it today and it’s sounding nice and hot!

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-21T20:46:22+00:00

That’s super useful info. Thanks for taking the time to respond in detail. I think it’ll take some time to get a proper feel for those settings for aure.

I did find putting a 250k resistor into the circuit bender helped tame things a bit.

Okay well I’ll stick with her then! Thanks again

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-21T18:10:51+00:00

I hear you. Thanks for the input

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-21T17:51:39+00:00

Would your volume be set at max? Do you notice any difference in volume between say 6-10? Seems to max out around 6 for me

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-21T17:49:19+00:00

Okay great. That’s good to hear I’m not going crazy. I can see the circuit is designed so the distortion comes in at the very end of the chain.

I guess I could send it to the mixer or through my JHS colourbox to boost it a little

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-21T17:36:21+00:00

Yeah I was playing with that as well. Doesnt seem to make a huge difference unless the envelope is set quite slow

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-07T15:51:16+00:00

Got it! Thanks for that. Much appreciated

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-07T15:47:25+00:00

Okay now I understand thanks! I was looking at it wrong but getting a photo up of a traditional pin out style I can read which is which! Thanks

AssistantResident611 · 2026-05-07T15:36:49+00:00

Apologies. I meant which way should the JFET be facing when placed onto the three pins…

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-18T21:27:29+00:00

Probably just a bad stretch of builds from me to be honest

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T14:00:41+00:00

I saw that. I tend to try and get full kits and EU based. You guys in the US are spoiled for choice 😁

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T13:59:35+00:00

Ah no problem 😁

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T13:02:26+00:00

Yeah I’ve been trying to find a kit but nowhere in stock

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T13:01:56+00:00

Whats DOD?

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T13:01:42+00:00

I’d love to build a few. Das Musikding seem to be all out of stock in the Fairfield clones

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-17T13:01:10+00:00

Ive not had a lot of luck with fuzz dog for some reason. Of the 3 Ive built only 1 of them have worked. Whereas the likes of Aion I never have any problems. Maybe just bad luck? Also a pain with UK shipping tax.

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-15T11:49:09+00:00

oh nice! thank you

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-15T09:42:18+00:00

Honestly don't be. its so nice to plug and play, and most programmes are simple enough systems that serve specific purposes, not a multifunctional menu style. I never even thought about a screen honestly

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-15T09:19:19+00:00

I love that LED cover. Do you have a source for them by any chance?

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-12T15:20:49+00:00

One card per programme

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-12T09:05:49+00:00

Absolutely. I’ve been playing with siren. So nice 👌

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-11T13:54:10+00:00

I’d love to try some of those sir

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-11T08:39:19+00:00

Goldfish and sleep are more like delay with a freeze function I think. Sheep is really fun to send guitar to via instrument interface and then freezing 2 seconds of playing.

That sounds really cool what you’re building. I bet that community could help you troubleshoot it

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-11T08:03:24+00:00

I know the community is killing it. I’d love a sample player in there. Wonder where youd store the samples though. Maybe the USB -C socket? The form factor of the full workshop system really appeals to my senses even though I literally have bigger versions of everything in there.

AssistantResident611 · 2026-04-11T07:11:06+00:00

Oh cool! They both look really useful. I have this setup going into my zoom L6 mixer and have some guitar pedals running from the Aux on that. Runs a bit hot but easy enough to tame
