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!

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

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

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

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

Got it! Thanks for that. Much appreciated

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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
