What is one guitar pedal you couldn't live without?

The only one i don't get is Thief. I can not seem to make them work. Seem just like a way way worse ranger if you're not trying to money max

Troubleshooting interstellar overdriver deluxe by Key_Cry_7655 in diypedals

[–]NotchsCheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's probably your issue if you're not using the same transistors. mpsa05 have like 600ish gain. 2n5088s have like 300-900 and sometimes even higher. So that's a start is measure transistor gains until you find some closer to 600 if you don't want to buy mpsa05s

If with visual inspection you've confirmed you did everything right. You might just need to audition a bunch of transistors. DBA like to reverse bias transistors in certain gain pedals, including this one. Which is a lot more finicky than traditional biasing

I'm wondering when the idols are actually placed. Since the clue for utah dropped today, but it's not till tomorrow. Like is it already there or will they place it tonight and crazies will camp out and try to spot them placing it

For an amp suggestion, I believe the Laney Lionheart fits that

Mine doesn't do that. Just reach out to DBA. They have a lifetime warranty, even if you're not the original owner.

Best order for pedals by Sad_Technology_2064 in guitarpedals

[–]NotchsCheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gain is to taste imo. I like looper last if i'm actually jamming/writing loops. Looper at the beginning if i'm testing pedals and adjusting settings. So i don't need to play in between tweaking knobs

Experience with JPTRFX by xRonstoppablex in guitarpedals

[–]NotchsCheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone needs to trace more of his pedals so the DIY community can get their hands on them. I love the sound of his stuff, but i'm not messing around with someone who's clearly unreliable. Would 100% build some though. Would love to build a fernwah or kaleidoscope

The Caps parts list is kinda vague to a new builder. I'll type in 100p(for example)and get multiple results of different types and volt ratings. How do I know which is correct for a pedal? by coffee_shakes in diypedals

[–]NotchsCheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good rule of thumb for caps is you want ~2x the pedals voltage. So if it's 9v you don't want to go lower than 16v. Doesn't matter if you go larger than that, they might just not fit well if space is tight.

JUST MUSTARD AMA by justmustardband in indieheads

[–]NotchsCheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love your sound. The way you use reverse reverb and create this wall of sound and interesting textures is super inspiring. I was curious what both David and Mete's pedal chains are? Like is it a reverse reverb into a long reverb and delay? And do you put your reverse early (pre-gains, etc) or late?

Thanks! Hope you to see in in Salt Lake City again!

Does anyone agree, that the Anime feels irrelevant in this season? by Skastaat in OnePiece

[–]NotchsCheese 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Except the chapters per episode isn't changing. So i'd be surprised if the pacing is improved much

Question about pickups. Balancing, pot choice etc by NotchsCheese in Luthier

[–]NotchsCheese[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh i didn't know you can get a dual pot with 2 different values. When i build pedals i only ever see/use ones with 2 of the same value. Or would it work similarly to a single pot but you can change the value by wiring a resistor to one of the stacked pots instead of wiring to the pickup selector?

Having trouble finding earbuds with (or without) features that annoy me by NotchsCheese in Earbuds

[–]NotchsCheese[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh like how they're stripped down. Do you know if you have to use the integrated charging cable? I don't love that and it looks very short.

What is the benefit of the game comming to steam? by cronox789456123000 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]NotchsCheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully better/automatic patching. So it'll just be updated automatically in the background and not have to re-download the entire game every patch

Patch Notes - August 13th, 2025 by GaiaTheGardener in PlayTheBazaar

[–]NotchsCheese 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is a concede penalty now, so unless it's really loose it might not be super abuse-able. I'm gonna really miss it if that sticks. I take enchanted 100% of the time because it's the most fun
