Here's a collection of vero (stripboard) and tagboard guitar and bass effect layouts that we have put together covering many classic and popular effects in growing numbers. Many of these have been posted on freestompboxes.org, so check that site out for great discussions on building your own effect pedals. Enjoy the builds and please also visit us on Facebook and Twitter
Got a conundrum. Built a pedal, works, did some tweaking. Now, it still works, but the Millenium BYpass circuit doesnt illuminate the LED. Tried other LED and I didnt change the circuit just tweaked the in an out cables. It still works 100% except the LED. What did I do?!
Hi people, This is my first time making this vero, the pedal its self EM Drive works and I'm very satisfied but the led is always on and I get the sound only when the switch is pressed. I think I'm messing up somewhere but I don't know where...I have changed 3 BS170 and it's the same Please help. I have this switch http://www.taydaelectronics.com/dpdt-compact-stomp-foot-pedal-switch-momentary.html
You have the wrong switch, that one only switches when pressed ("momentary"). You need the latching switch version. Btw. I don't think you gain much if you get your switches at Tayda, they have the 3pdt footswitches for the same price...
