5 from 5 Another awesome kit.

First off, the pedal sounds amazing. It is extremely versatile, being able to dial in a huge range of different sounds.

The build for this was relatively simple. The board was a very easy build as it doesnt have a huge amount of components. I did struggle a bit with wiring up all the pots back to the board, there is a lot of wires and as I am very pedantic with neatness it took me quite to get it how I wanted it.

Another great pedal kit from musikding with nothing to fault. Highly recommend it.

5 from 5 Pas pour un debutant

Super kit !!!!!
il men a fallu deux pour comprendre quelques petites astuces , comme le sens de loctocoupleur par exemple !!
La première a un niveau de sortie beaucoup trop fort, presque en saturation , le trim ne suffisant pas à régler ce volume , je me pencherais sur la question plus tard .
En tous cas la deuxième fonctionne à merveille, cest un régal davoir autant de réglages sur un tremolo , je la recommande vivement !
Une fuzz factory a dejà rejoint le peadlboard, et je commanderai encore dautres kits , cest certain !!
Merci Musikding !

5 from 5 Its got a vibe kinda vibe to it

Another great circuit from Musikding. Nice standard trem sounds, but you can get some really trippy, almost uni-vibe-ish asymmetric wave forms out of this too. I love it. Not recommended for beginners though. Instructions and schematic are clear, but if youre new to this I wouldnt start with 5 potentiometers.

5 from 5 Great tremolo with so many options

Great pedal with lot of options and sounds, no noise at all. Only improvement is to buy separate high precision 25k trimmer so you can set volume as desired, otherwise pedal is a bit louder than guitar signal and to match volume you’ll need something precise :)
Also keep in mind the polarity on AO1I element, white dot represents minus

5 from 5 Perfect for beginners

Great kit! This was my first build and it was very easy. Didn’t work immediately because I didn’t solder one of my power wires correctly but it was easy to troubleshoot. Pay attention to the orientation of the optocoupler!
