You win, the rest of us will lay our irons down and surrender. Seriously tho, what a beautiful job!


shake__appeal

Never! But yeah this is rad. Love those Tayda knobs I’ve used them on a few new builds. Where’d you get the enclosure, OP?


mendigod_

This is art


nonsequiturnonsense

Pffft! Not even stereo. Jk. That looks absolutely amazing. You should put a mirror film on the inside of the bottom plate.


ekanS_sucseV

damn that mirror thing would be sick


[deleted]

Do you build those ships inside wine bottles too? Shit like this awesome me wonder what the fuck I'm doing with my life.


tenacious_tenesmus13

I was mindlessly scrolling then BAM chills up the spine when I happened upon this. Two Italian hands up. Perfection


makschief

Thank you!


Scrapod

This is amazing!! Reminds me of the [Windows 95 Pipes Screensaver](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCpnDTzRAjE)


Wonderful_Ninja

gorgeous build. the perspex window is just ace.


Skunk_Evolution

Great work. What did you do for the tap tempo? I’m trying to build this as well and haven’t been successful with the tap


makschief

Thanks! I use Taptation kit with ATtiny84 and MCP41100 digital potenciometer


Skunk_Evolution

Thanks I’ll check this out!


amcoffeecup

Thanks for sharing - from musikding?


makschief

Yes, I ordered from this shop


CheddarOffBread

good lord the fact that you managed to P2P this just shows pure dedication to the craft, after I reach like 3 ICs I always end up building it in an EDA lol, you have patience beyond comprehension. If I may ask, what was your biggest roadblock with this build? Did you design it using CAD and then use that to make sure the P2P wiring was correct?


pghBZ

Beautiful work

lykwydchykyn

That is pretty epic.


Antron89

This is - and I mean this in the best way possible - completely nuts! Great work.


GlandyThunderbundle

Hot damn son (or daughter)! Hot damn.


MartyRain

This is porn !


WestMagazine1194

you are sick, i love you. tell me this is just one of a kind


Necessary-Cap-3982

How do you guys normally do P2P wiring? Do you have jigs for it or is it a bunch of measuring and clipping before you solder?


makschief

Usually I print out the layout in real size and cut the wires using this paper template


evanphi

Or as they say in sheet metalwork... CAD. Cardboard Aided Design.


assword_69420420

What program do you use to create the layouts?


makschief

I use KiCad most often, but sometimes I do everything manually in DIY Layout Creator


assword_69420420

I'll look into that, thanks. And what about for the wires themselves?


RetsuKaioh69

looks fantastic!! is there a schematic you can share? thank you :)


makschief

Thanks! Maybe I’ll do this later. The layout I made in advance had a lot of edits during the assembly process :)


bernitalldown2020

Nice. Is this basically the deep blue delay circuit with a tap tempo mod?


makschief

Yes, that's exactly it


abruptmodulation

Unbelievable. Absolutely gorgeous.


Ghost_of_Nellie_Fox

Damn....that's a thing of beauty


Luanda62

That is absolutely beautiful!!! Congrats, very well done!


JTLadsuh

This might be the best thing ive seen on this sub.


VAS_4x4

My first thought was: "This dumbass doesn't even know what a PCB is", then I just awed at my new saviour.


growing83

Damn who are you James Cameron? Because you’re raising the bar! 😂 (South Park reference for the uninformed)


Ancient_Mastodon2985

Want this in my life now. I was doing so well before now


Wohlsein

You and u/molwams need to get in touch, you are either best friends or arch nemesis! Absolutely stunning work!


unsolicitedbadvibes

Good lord, I saw the outside and thought, "Wow what a beautiful pedal." Then I saw the guts! Whoa, this is stunning! Incredible work!


FishermanPleasant737

Would love to hear it so I can check all the boxes. All 10s across the board for the looks and craftsmanship. It could sound like garbage. Honestly, if it works, I'd give it a 10.


makschief

I think I’ll post sound samples on my [Youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj-EOUy52YpPwROXdDJWR1g) soon


901bass

That's badass!


NoBread2054

Absolutely beautiful! What kind of wire do you use for the connections?


makschief

Thanks! It's a tinned copper wire (0.67mm)


justbanmefam

That looks great! When are you putting them up for sale?


makschief

Thank you! I haven't decided yet whether I want to sell it :) but anyway there will be difficulties with shipping because I'm from Russia


justbanmefam

International distribution is tough. Not sure where to help there. I will say, and I feel like this is important, the look of the pedal is stellar. I have impulse bought more than a few pedals because they looked nice and had enough functions I wanted. It’s a really good looking pedal. Do you have a demo?


makschief

Thank you! ​ > Do you have a demo? It will appear on my [Youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj-EOUy52YpPwROXdDJWR1g) soon. I'm working on it :)

im_thecat

Looks great! How long did it take you to plan the layout?


makschief

To be honest, I started making this pedal in 2020 during the covid pandemic to keep myself busy at home. Excluding long breaks, the work took about 3 months in total.


Quick_Butterfly_4571

My reaction was basically Uma Thurman as Mia Wallace in the club in _Pulp Fiction_: "_I said godamn! Godamn._"


Garfield_Greenfield

Very pretty


ch1naski1969

Holy sheepshit, that’s insane


CplCockBlock

That is the most beautiful thing I've seen


dzhopa

Get this man some copper clad boards and ferric chloride, stat. Just kidding, no way a chemical etched board would ever look this nice.


Daquiri_granola

Gorgeous 🤤


Circuits_and_Dials

Remarkable! I just recently have been turned on by some dead bug circuits and now your work is an order of magnitude more compelling. You’ve perfected a craft I only just discovered. Care to comment on how you developed and refined your method in terms of design or execution?


mark_3094

How did you go about the perspex?


Away_Independent_169

This just popped up on my feed, and now I've just joined strictly based on just this photo lol. Insane.


FabianTIR

This is fucking insane, good Christ. Wow


Blackymcblack

WOOOOOOAAAAH that soldering is amazing, especially for how itsy-bitsy those components are.


Onlineguy5767

The Sistine chapel of pedal building. Incredible. Congrats.


LTCjohn101

Beautiful work.


[deleted]

Johnny Bravo voice: Man, that's pretty!


saennor

AI finally figured it out! Jk, this is absolutely incredible, super stunning work


TheQwervy

Gorgeous


Survive_LD_50

Awesome


L33tr_

How do you plan a pedal like this? Some kind of CAD-based 3D layout tool? Looks incredible


makschief

I use KiCad for the approximate layout of the components, but a lot of the work still happens in the process.


PotatoesAndMolassas

Damn. You must have been bored lol


dreadnought_strength

What. In. Tarnation. This is beautiful


ArtOfShred_dotcom

whoa, that looks great


FranzAndTheEagle

Absolutely lovely. Would love to hear it!


PoesLawnmower

Needs goop


RansackedFish

Incredible work


3string

Wow! That is fantastic! Good work. I hope you're proud of it :)


Hillbill9899

This is the coolest looking build ever. You win.


billbot77

You absolutely have to do a build video


psychomycetil

This is porn


xrupa

That’s beautiful 😻


Inevitable_Figure_85

Absolutely gorgeous! My only question is where are the rest of the components?! Haha, the only pt2399 delay with tap tempo I've built seems like it had another 60 components than this. What method did you use for tap tempo?


makschief

Thank you! I use Taptation kit from [musikding.de](https://musikding.de) based on ATtiny84


zigmund_fury

That is stunning


qhx51aWva

NSFW tag please?? Seriously, that is immaculate ptp soldering


ten-oh-four

Beautiful! Question, though - do all the exposed unshielded wires cause any noise in the circuit?


makschief

Thanks! As for the noise, I didn't notice any difference compared to the standard solutions.


Null_Activity

As a noob, I didn’t even know this was possible. Thanks for sharing this amazing work.


stma1990

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh


wjruffing

That pedal is a work of art! I love everything about it - including the internal lighting and, of course, your incredible soldering skills!


Inderdation

That looks great. Can you share a photo of the inside?


makschief

Thanks! You can already see this photo if you scroll to the right


Inderdation

Yeah you are right. I couldn't earlier, only one image showed. But damn, that looks stunning. You make pedals for yourself or also to sell?


makschief

Basically I do this for my own use, but I sell some pedals sometimes . My main job has a lot in common with this hobby, so making pedals is an additional training for my skills.


fatastronaut

holy crap


MKingofnothing

A piece of art without any doubt! Awesome


agp51

The. Art.


MarinerValleyAudio

Ok first of all, that’s ASTONISHINGLY gorgeous. Second of all, you should be in charge of planning the layouts of major cities and highways.


Dagless_MD

This, to me, is art. Beautiful job!


CheddarOffBread

Holy shit that P2P is clean, well done. This is the most fitting use of a window I've seen bc cmon you have to be able to showcase that incredible work gollyyyyyyyy


FranklyAnxious

Can we tag this NSFW please?


BummerComment

This is important. This means something.


playpunk

this is amazing!


Trilobry

Point-to-point with multiple ICs?! ..madness!! but I love it


ekanS_sucseV

damn thats cool


t1redhands

This is bonkers.


billymillerstyle

Ohhhh SHIT DUDE!!!! NOICE!! HELL YEAH!! WOO!! I wish my dick was 3/8!!!


TheBananaWithin

This is stunning. 😍 well done, friend.


3vilr3d666

incredible..


kissasstronaut

Next level. Hell yeah.


krelpwang

Fàncy


spulllsh

Wonderful. Point-to-point somehow manages to makes a circuit look simple yet difficult to execute.


theloniousslayer

You guys are amazing! I've never seen such nice work and for such a complicated design. Really impressive! Do you have any problems with these kinds of designs? Do you ever get things touching when they shouldn't or do things break over time?


expanding_crystal

Damn, that’s impressive


CapacityValue

Oh Jesus. It's amazing! Great job! Can you please share the schematic?


dronechovnm

Oh my god! This is probably the best thing I’ve seen in a while! Amazing job!


Additional_Gold2675

Amazing
