- Beginners' overview of getting started building pedals. I am using the stripboard layout of the EQD Arrows pedal (all credit for this layout goes to Storyboardist).
This is hands down one of the best tutorials I've ever watched. PERIOD. Clear and so much attention to the right details. GREAT JOB!
Agreed 💯
Nothing skipped. 5⭐ video, even the 3PDT perfectly explained.
Subscriber 400!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I'm following along with this at home and its coming along well -- excellent guide! Thanks bud!
You should record more of your builds, very enjoyable and informative
this is so clear and thourough. One of the best pedal build tutorials ive ever watched
Thank you, glad it helped!
Excellent guide. This has definitely helped with troubleshooting some abandoned projects. Thanks for sharing.
your inspirational cadence has me going from Beebo & ZOIA ConSumer
to designer
Zero-Latency Reverse Reverb in three minutes!
thnx
I really appreciate you putting this information out there. I've got a lot to learn but you've given me a lot of hope and knowledge!
This is a good and informative video. I'm the same at work making myself troubleshooting guides. It makes life easier 👍
Great, helpful vid, bro. Most others have good info but painful delivery. I could roll with yours all day. Thanks and keep up the good work 🤙
This video was so helpful when I was starting out. Five outa five man. Thanks!
This is just perfect. You made it all very clear and understandable even for a newbie like me. Thank you dude
Thanks mate, just know that you will run into issues. Everyone does. Be kind to yourself and don't quit, but know when to start from scratch. I hope you have fun 👍
@@tomwaus Thanks mate, trial and error is my whole life to this point so I'm ready. Hope you do more builds and stay safe during this crazy time
thank you for this, just everything I needed! love from France :)
Awesome thanks so much. I’m preparing myself to move on to these Stripboard builds. I wasn’t clear on how the pots work.
dope vid, i've built a couple from kits and have some half-finished pedalpcb boards. this is next level though, thank you!
It's interesting the tool you made to put breaks in the copper on the board. It gives a very neat finish
Good informative video. Therapeutic to watch. Thanks
Thank you for posting!!!
Great tutorial!
Very cool video!!!
Those switch covers Derm So Hard!! Amazing video and explanation
Thanks brother. Derm petalz ftw ❤
There is the thing of finding out which way around the non electrolytic capacitors go by figuring out what end is the outer part of the film. You can do this by holding the capacitor and touching it against your guitar lead plug with the other end plugged into your turned on amp. The less noisy way around shows you which end of the capacitor is the outside end of the film.
Great job!
The footswitch on my chinese vox wah pedal seems to have do three things. One click turns the power on, a second click turns the wah on and a further click switches the pedal off completely
Could you do one which focuses more on the soldering technique? I'm struggling with that but love the video otherwise!
cool
Amazing tutorial, today I made one myself but I changed a few values cause I did not have them. I wanted to use it with my modular system and took a few components from an old answering machine. I have no idea but it works even without 9V power and it seems a 9V makes no difference.
How you install when it’s says: example (gain 1+2) in the same row?
Thanks and carry on with your amazing effort
Do you have an affiliate link to where you buy your components? Thank you for showing the socket variation for active components.
Always glad to help. I really want to make a series of videos but it's been a busy year.
I mainly use Tayda (international) and diyguitarpedals.com.au (great beginner video channel on here too, check it out), but if you're in the USA Small Bear is about as good as it gets. Get onto the forums and Facebook groups for diy stompboxes and guitar pedal builders too. There are lots of shops dedicated to pedal builders and tons of online resources. It's really taken off in the last 10 years!
Exponential or Logarithmic = the way hearing works
Can anyone tell me what the resistor top centre is ? It says 100 + ohm symbol...is that just 100ohms? Or 100R? Or 100k? Thanks@!
That's just 100 ohms. It can be written like that, or 100R. Or possibly other ways too! I have no idea.
100k is 100,000 ohms so swapping them out would make a bit of difference. In most cases 15-20% difference wouldn't affect a pedal circuit much (you could throw in an 82 ohm or 120 ohm resistor with little noticeable difference)
thanks a lot! do you have the schematic of this circuit?
I don't, but there are a few online if you Google eqd arrows schematic.
This is the best stripboard tutorial out there.Thank you!
