BlindtoFaith wrote:Just got the box today! WOW! These things look great. The Gnome's LED does not work and some of the pots are scratchy. Don't know if that is normal. It slays though. I ran it through the Meatball and the wife ran ut of the room saying " that pedal makes me want to pull out my teeth". Hahahaha!!!! SCORE.


Haha. I made a math error on some VTFs, and the LEDs (pending colour) are running 30mA instead of 20 like they're supposed to. I've fixed that now, but yeah. They don't actually get any brighter running that hot-- I was just setting it to the LED's designed operating point, and didn't take into account that most power supplies are OVER 9 volts.

The scratchy pots... the ones on the side do crackle. They're like the gain control on an SHO. Except instead of "Crackle OK" It's "Crackle... fuck it." Depeding on settings, sometimes other knobs make some noise. It's just the gain of the pedal and the imperfection of the pots, I think. I could use nicer pots, but they tend to be like 10 bucks each, sooooo... it's not worth it. :idk: (They're the same pots that are used in all boutique pedals-- it's not like I went extra cheap on them)

So, yeah... Re:LED -- I'm a moron, RE: scratchy pots-- it's normal.

It's up to Ian how the LED gets fixed. If someone was to mail it to me, I could fix it and mail it to the next guy in the tourbox.

I'm only taking about a few specific pedals. In, like,a short transition period-- and only white LEDs. Green has a higher voltage drop, so you're probably safe anyways.
