I cant tell if it works properly or not. I mean the effect is noticable but i wouldnt want to play with that at all. If depth's not maxed then i dont hear the effect on the 1 and 2nd strings of the guitar. the freq doesnt really help alot :/ why is this pedal so weird? why dont we have a clone that works properly on video? we need more information as to how to make this work properly or even how it should be working...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14185629523083947950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-11233340945699160052017-03-08T06:51:11.396+00:002017-03-08T06:51:11.396+00:00Third time building this, same results.

I've built many pedals, but this is the first that has consistently not performed as expected after three builds.<br />I've tried subbing the transistor w/MPSA13 and a TL072 IC.

Gives a bit of a popping sound when hitting notes harder but is a decent sounding auto wah overall. I think the popping sound is something you get with auto wahs in general.<br />I'm guessing that maybe people who've had trouble with this build might be forgetting to use the 390k instead of 47k when using the 1m pot, or possibly getting their 4n7 and 47n's mixed up. I'd say double check these 2 things as well as the frequency pot connections.<br />Definitely a worthy build. Great fun to play and get funky with.<br />A big thanks to Ivlark for putting this diagram up.

If anyone is patient enough to help me, here are my questions:<br /><br />1: I don't understand the off-board wiring. I think it has 1 input, 1 output and 1 pot. The input and output would have (2?) wires each and the pot has three terminals for a total of 7. Other than the power and ground, I only see 6 wires coming off the board. And I have no clue where they go???<br /><br />2: Specs for the pot? I know this should be common knowledge for a pro, but I have no idea.<br /><br />3: What is the EBC?<br /><br />4: Q1 - 2N5088? The diagram has the 'Q1' off of the board. Where does it go?<br /><br />Sorry to be so new and thank you for a reply..jgouldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11209569353808585701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-82052440654212468142012-07-25T14:04:28.501+01:002012-07-25T14:04:28.501+01:00I thought about it for some time, but i think that...I thought about it for some time, but i think that using TL072 or other "normal" dual opamp would always need bias power supply that provides 4,5V and 9V voltages - the one with two 10K resistors and one 4µ7 cap. Schematic of this has only place for 9V supply, so that seems to be the reason why nothing else apart from LM1458 doesn't work.<br /><br />Just thought i'd share my chain of thought.. :)<br />+mmirosolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400327798106357876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-65151859136421872532012-07-21T11:12:39.905+01:002012-07-21T11:12:39.905+01:00your more than welcome. glad i could help. ;-)your more than welcome. glad i could help. ;-)johnkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00643996045674470081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-89240605049619398792012-07-21T10:28:32.491+01:002012-07-21T10:28:32.491+01:00Cool!
