Forum-Vibe Vintage kit

Really nice pcb! You cant solder anything wrong due to the giant space between the solder islands. It could have been more compact though.

The documentation is lacking powersupply information. It includes a bridge rectifier which can handle ac. Musikding says youll need an 18V powersupply, which will provide enough juice for it. The 2000mA 18V adaptor is a good match because it uses a lot of mili amps.

The documentation make it an advanced project, there is no wiring layout (there is one of an older version somewhere on the net). There are small mistakes in the schematic and on the PCB picture on the website, so if you dont get it to work right away itll make troubleshooting more difficult than it needs to be. The PCB is very high quality and the sound is great. Musikding should overhaul the documentation and it would be 5 stars.
For maximum vintage correctness, do NOT wire as true bypass, the pedal does something really nice to the tone with the killswitch engaged which leaves all of the circuit it the signal path.

The build as such is easy . But the documentation on wiring and fine-tuning the thing is pretty poor . Ive build 3 now : one stock , one with a few mods and now the Red House version with all the mods and a separate power supply like the original . It has about all the pros and cons of the original : intensity starts to work in between 5 and 7 in chorus mode and then up to 10 it really swirls . Slow to fast speed takes very little travel of the pot so I got to figure out to adjust the lfo so the thing will go slower than it does . Not really a beginners kit .
