Forum rules
The DIY forum is for personal projects (things that are not for sale, not in production), info sharing, peer to peer assistance. No backdoor spamming (DIY posts that are actually advertisements for your business). No clones of in-production pedals. If you have concerns or questions, feel free to PM admin. Thanks so much!
It's a bit cheeky to sign up here and push my own blog straight away, but I feel like people here might like it and I'm not selling anything. I have been writing up repairs at http://falseelectronics.blogspot.com for a little while, mostly to share info and partially to push myself to finish off more projects. They are mostly SMD pedals, as they are often cheaper when broken as a lot of people don't touch them.
A while ago I repaired a Line6 MM4 and converted it to a DL4. The mod is pretty simple, but I have yet to find a source of cheap compatible EEPROMs so that a DL4 donor IC isn't required. Eventually I would like to make a PCB to replace the PLCC socket and switch between different firmwares, using a cheaper and more available EEPROM. http://falseelectronics.blogspot.com/20 ... rsion.html
I've never come across an AM4 or DM4, if anyone has the memory chips or dumps of them please get in touch

Hiya Curtis. I thought about putting a wire-wheel to that case but I just couldn't do it. I installed soft-touch footswitches instead and use it as a DL4. I have another dead DL4 that has a near-new case and it's at the bottom of the repair pile.
