Zitat von Moonshine

Hard to understand what you mean, brother In- and outside? Well, I guess your wiring at the switch is not correct, from what I can see. Hard to follow the wires, especially without any obvious color code (good idea to do that for future projects). Although, with a standard 3PDT true bypass wiring there are no spare pins, all 9 pins are connected with something.

Cheers, Max

I just wanted to say if there was an orientation in the footswitch, but no.

As long as the orientation of the footswitch is connected with the pins horizontal, there is no problem.

It was just a matter of turning it over or not. But both ways it works.

You see what i mean?

It's a false problem, don't worry

Yes I checked the footswitch wiring 10 times.

It's ok.

It is also the same as on the second kit which works.

I have a new footswitch, I can rewire on it.

Before i will try a direct wiring on jack in/out

Yes, the variation of the light of the led works with the pots space, smooth, speed, etc, as on the other.

Could there be a problem with a faulty mini-trim pot?

Yes,

IC1

1 4,47v

2 4,47v

3 4,27v

4 0v

5 4,27v

6 4,47v

7 4,47v

8 8,96v

IC2

1 5,78v

2 5,81v

3 6,20v

4 0v

5 6,27v

6 6,85v

7 6,27v

8 8,97v

This is the same wiring of my second tremolo who is work good.

So this wiring of the footswitch is good.

Thanks all.

Thanks Moonshine! I'm progressing, I'm happy, I'm starting to understand a good solder.

For the footswitch:

I solder well from the pines to the "horizontal" (see photo)

Would there be an orientation between the top and the bottom?

Out and In? Wow !?

I reverse the solder ?

How to know the in and the out then? No indication on the footswitch.

Nsl32 is the good orientation

Hello,

I unsoldered and resoldered this kit which did not work, I resoldered really carefully, and meticulously, on a new PCB

The wiring is ok, and the orientations of the components ok, all is ok

Bypass: work, Led off I have the sound of the guitar.

Led on: "no sound"

Trim: open is ok

Led is ok: the intensity varies by moving the pots

I checked the pots (ohm): is ok

I checked all the resistors (ohm): is ok

I checked the footswitch: is ok

I checked ic1 and ic2 work : voltages of 4.32v

I even checked the ic1 and ic2 on the second Tremolo that i succeeded (this one) : is Ok

Nsl32 : 4,32v on pins seems : Ok

Everything is ok in appearance

I don't understand, i will try the "audio probe", i think. I must find a condo 100nf

Thank you !

Yes, I have found also that attack is more audible indeed.

Release is more difficult

You re diagram is very good explain and clear.

Thank you 👍👍

Thanks for the diagram!

By practicing, there is an effect that is felt.

I sound like an idiot in this topic, it's okay

I don't think I was the only one. It might help some maybe.

Good sorry.

I was expecting this, and we can see the difference shows how attack and release work.

It is fine work.

Maybe this topic can help some who are lost.

Demo Attack :

Level : 3/4

Ratio : 3/4

Threesold : 3/4

Release : 3/4

Attack : from zero to full (alternately)

Demo Release :

Level : 3/4

Ratio : 3/4

Threesold : 3/4

Attack : 3/4

Release : from zero to full (alternately)

But, I must say that this pedal sounds very, very good, and offers a different approach, a new experience

Thanks for the multi-effects link.

Indeed, it gives a good range of comprehension.

An idea.

Yes, I tested on logic pro. But since I was struggling. I wanted a compressor of this type directly on the guitar in order to familiarize myself.

Yes, initially I bought this compressor, because it had all the functions. Precisely to "understand" the compressor.

Thank you for the link.

It's not easy for a beginner. The concept is quite complex.

Musikding week special offer with our excellent compressor : 😂

Warning Musikding about the compressor Engineer's Thumb:

Attack and release is a very fine and subtle audio option, don't think your compressor isn't working. You just have no ears, ask yourself questions. If you are not at least a sound engineer in the practice of your instrument, change your profession. 😂

Hallo,

I think I am in this case,

Notably : eh la bas ma

THE ENGINEER'S THUMB... At last, a better compressor!

Simon, i think, a reason in what he says

But, i admit difficult to hear attack and release, it's for sound engineers

The engineer's thumb compressor

Very subtl.

And this:

With less compression it's going to amplify the signal less. So there's less compensation to keep the signal at a steady level.

If your input signal is too low the envelope will not function as strongly so the envelope sweep would be smaller.

If your power supply is too low you'll have less headroom and less of an audible difference, as it would cause a similar issue as I've mentioned above (being less wiggle room for the envelope and your signal)

Sorry, I should have opened a new thread from the start

No finally, he hasn't changed his pots, he says so

It was the complete re-soldering that had an effect.

Ok, I'll keep you posted mesurement

Ok i will re-soldering bad solder joints.

Ok, I will take mesurements after cut components legs.

Yes i have the good transistor T1 : 327 with good orientation

I took mesurements yesterday of ic1 and ic2 and T1, always the same results.

Ic1 a majority of 0v (but 9v pin 11 ok)

I will send you precise measurements

I protected the back of the pots with tape (scotch), so that they did not touch the components.

I am somewhat in his case.

Engineer's Thumb funktioniert nicht richtig

Guten Abend miteinander,

ich habe heute den Engineer's Thumb Compressor zusammengebaut, um den DynaComp (damals mein erster Bausatz) zu ersetzen.
Leider funktioniert das Gerät nicht richtig...um nicht zu sagen, regelrecht gegensätzlich.
Vorweg, bevor jemand fragt:
Ja ich habe das Forum durchsucht. Ja die Symtome decken sich mit einigen Threads, die ich gefunden habe, die darin angesprochenen Probleme habe ich geprüft:
- Es ist der richtige Transistor verbaut, es sind die richtigen ICs verbaut, sie…

He has everything resoldering to be successful.

Sorry i tend to edit

I pushed it, yes heavy, nothing happen (attack and release).

That must be the concept
