Replacing the power jack on an EHX Holy Grail

    My Mosky P90 Pro phaser had a switch pop noise so loud it was unusable at regular volume playing, but I eliminated the noise by soldering a wire from the terminal of the switch that turns on the LED to ground so that the switch still turns the phase effect on/off but the LED remains on always, thus no longer sending a voltage jump to the amp every time you activate the effect. Just use your ears to know when the pedal is on or off, like we did in the old days before LEDs.

    I've made a half dozen of these, in addition to damn near 150 other clipping pedals, and like them very much. It is amenable to a range of germanium PNP transistors. My most recent build uses a 2SA49. Quite honestly, the variation across transistors with the *same* number is probably every bit as wide as the variation across transistors with *different* part numbers, so don't be obsessive about scoring a 2N404. If it's a germanium PNP with an hfe under 100, you're in the right territory and won't be disappointed. Although most would likely attribute the distortion to clipping diodes, my sense is that one of the main functions of those diodes is to function as a quick-and-dirty limiter. As you know, the design uses a fixed gain, and varies distortion intensity by attenuating the input signal. The diodes help to make the volume level relatively consistent across different input levels.

    Issue that I had with my Blue Tube... they have these pots that have legs that come off the PCB at a 90 degree, and are pressed against the pcb. One of these bare legs was pressed onto the trace that belongs to a different part of the circuit. I put a plastic shimmy between that bare leg and the trace where the masking cracked from that leg being pressed on it after all these years. I would wager that a lot of people have tried troubleshooting their pedal and never figured it out. I don't know what revision this pedal is, but everyone who has it I can assure you that there's a pot leg that is pressed against a trace that's going to give you problems down the road once that masking cracks.

    I'm new to that comparator circuit. Its kicking my ass currently. OP AMP seems to be blown. I subbed an LF353... also a jfet opamp (ordered some TI TL072's from Mouser to eventually keep it all as original as possible). But that 353 also too acted like it was blown and the pedal was stuck on overdrive (RED) (pedal button did nothing) , but the J112 isn't letting the overdrive signal through... Seems like one thing blowing may have taken out a couple things. Gonna remove a few things and rebuild it in blocks and verify I know what's what.

The design turned out to be 16 steps but twelve instruments fully adjustable and I'm still saving for the roughly 270 knobs and switches already got the 218 Led's and housing though😂😂 Probably an gonna hope no one else wants one very quick into soldering it up. Still neat how you've fit all that in such a small space I'm building a three knob limiter right now (first guitar effect instead of synthesizer stuff) and I can barely fit all the jacks and pots in.

    I'm new here but I was wondering what software you are using to design the schematic. I've been drawing by hand for years because I haven't been able to find one I both like and can afford (and isn't cloud based) but this one looks nice but the name is just cut off by the edge of my screen. Anyway, nice video so far and I'm curious to see the rest

      I use the free version of Eagle. I should point out that my first video shows how to get the software. It's in the Treble Booster playlist. ua-cam.com/play/PLLfcC-fVcvb_Bvkz_Z-1lwMStvG46rMef.html

      Awesome, I didn't know there was one. The best way to design on the computer (within my budget without cloud) so far I've found is ltspice which is far from optimum, great software but missing a bunch for designing instruments and effects. And finally something good again to watch before bedtime, was planning to say that and that I watched the whole series before going to bed but I was very tired and fell asleep right at the end of the fifth one. Great channel though and great video's, really glad to discover you last night when I was looking for some distortion limiter inspiration.

    Would a boss FS6 pedal with a stereo jack work with this? I have the same vintage modern but there no reverb at all, I am wondering is it constantly set to off by some chance

    • @HomespunEffects
      @HomespunEffects Рік тому

      The FS-6 should work for a 2466 because you can have one set to latching and the other to momentary. However, I think yours may need to be looked at because when there is no foot switch plugged in the reverb should be active all the time.

      @@HomespunEffects Tried the fs6 pedal on momentary for the channel switch which works but only on the pedal and not on the amp itself when the pedal is plugged in. Still nothing from the reverb though.

      @@loafbo seems like the momentary switch for the dynamic range switch is normally closed. If you press and hold the switch on the FS-6 can you switch the dynamic range from the front of the amp? Regardless, there's a problem with the reverb.

    I see this is pretty old, so maybe your endorsement doesn't still apply, but thanks nonetheless. Great videos, by the way!

    Nice 😁. I'm just curious. Which part is the footswitch or where did you connect the footswitch here? I like watching your videos. 😊

      I run it as a standard true bypass. The 3PDT hooks up to the in and out jacks on the PCB. Thanks for watching.

    Really wish I knew what you are talking about. I am trying to learn, and your videos are helping. Somewhat. The titles of your videos sound more like they are for beginners, but it seems that they are geared for people who have a strong knowledge base of electronics. If you would like to appeal to the beginner niche, I would suggest telling why this capacitor does this or what this capacitor is and why it does what it does, Etc… A little constructive feedback, the volume of your videos are low, but the clicking sound from your Mouse is very high. Not sure what your bike situation is, but I would revamp that. More importantly after demonstrating the guitar amp that you’re using, and the end result of the pedal, the miking needs a lot of work it seems that you might the amp with your phone… The audio was not perfect. With that being said I’m not coming at you with hate, only constructive feedback I really appreciate your videos and I hope to see more of them. I hope you take my feedback as constructive and not as negative hate… Can’t wait to see your next video!

      Thanks for the tips. I take your suggestions to heart. This channel is for beginners in pedal building but not necessarily for those new to electronics. I generally don't explain much about the components because there are videos that already do that and a lot of times it's not pertinent to someone that just wants a clone circuit. Brian Wampler does that way better than I ever will. 😃 Basically, I'm trying to make the videos that I wish I had when I started building pedals. I'll try to speak up in following videos. Thanks again.

      Looking back, I used two SM57s with the Fredman technique for the sound tests.
