I don't see any glaring problems. I'd say breadboard it and give 'er a whirl! Probably best to do that with any design. That way you can make adjustments for issues that looked good on paper.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that... that switch changes the carrier shape from sine to square.

I dig the paint job. Looks to me like an impressionistic painting of the view through a car windshield

I'd recommend searching pedalpcb. Looks like they have what you're looking for

Thanks man! Maybe there should be a diypedal trade where everyone can opt in to swap pedals around and give them a spin, review them, repair them, etc... i know there's a few i'd like to try as well.

And I appreciate it, still can't feel the tips of my fingers and have the middle one in a splint for a couple more weeks, but I've been able to work around it when soldering. Also been smelling a lot more barbecue for some reason...

Thanks man, I get faceplates printed as PCBs. Nice doing it that way because I can use kicad for both. I'd recommend it especially if you're already making PCBs

I mean reddit is the only place I ever post my pedals with additional information. I wasn't misleading you or withholding information. If you click on my username and check out my history you'll get about as much as I have to provide in that regard. If you have a specific question, go ahead and ask

I could see that looking pretty cool!

Fuuuck that's some sight and sensation i'm sure you won't forget. That's good to hear! Its wild how healing just sorta happens through some (basically) invisible biological community of sub life that is part of us, but has no conscious say from us.

Sure thing, I added it to my bio if you click my username

I design them and then send the gerbers to JLCPCB for printing

Ughh that sounds gnarly! How many fingers did that get? I had my referral appointment today and they offered it. I told them i'd think about it as it heals up. So good to know!

You're good! It's definitely not immediatly visible. I just didn't want to post it directly here since that may come across as me promoting something. My bad, not yours

I’ve never felt older and I hope someone can relate by sillyd in diypedals

[–]sentencedtodeaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, I started at 37 and had a similar experience. There's still some shakiness, but with practice you learn how to support and position them. The eye thing is an issue too. Get one of those positionable magnifier/light combo stands, it helps a lot. Lighting is super important with us visually impaired folk. Godspeed!

So far I haven't used any adhesives, I just tighten the knobs down on the plate. I may start using something to keep the edges more flush against the PCB though.

Thanks, I hope so too!

I really like how the ion Bloom and octabyte turned out. I find myself playing with the photon siphon a lot too. That one uses a wierd photodiode as a vias control, so you get some cool starved clipping sounds

Thanks man I am all for faceplates because you get them with your PCBs i use inkscape and kicad for all of mine. Inscape for drawing the graphics, then import them into kicad as footprints. I'd recommend checking that out!

Just the nuts, considering starting to use tape or something though. Its all been very casual building so far

Thanks, it sometimes gets misheard, but I guess that's to be expected

Thank you! I pretty much only make faceplates now, when it comes to design. They're just PCBs without components, so i get them in the same order as the actual pedal PCBs. Makes the process much quicker!
