    Default This is a LOT of freakin' parts....

    ...for a single pedal! This is the new BYOC analog delay kit. It's their most expensive kit and most difficult build. Other than just the shear number of parts, it's some of the types that are a bit daunting:
    • Eleven IC's all with their own socket fixtures (8-, 14- and 16-pin types, totalling 120 legs to be soldered to the PCB!)
    • Nine (9) trimpots, all of which will need to be adjusted to optimize the delay, minimize the distortion and clock noise, and set several other operating parameters.
    • 49 resistors, which is no big deal in itself. Except, in order to get 'em all on the PCB and keep it to a reasonable size, they all have to be mounted vertically, like the old vintage effects had. And when you get two or more placed parallel next to each other, you have to alternate which side of the two rows of holes the resistor body is on. Big fun.

    This should eat up most of the non-football portion of this weekend.... :
