Product Overview
Fuzz Dog Deep Vibes Optical Vibes Machine
A modern take on getting the classic vibe sound, squeezed into a neat little 1590B package.
Five knobs of tweakable optical vibe goodness that'll sound great whatever you plug into it. Guitar, bass, keyboards, maracas... well, maybe not everything.
You have Rate, Intensity and Volume which you'd expect, but there are another couple of controls to keep things interesting. Voice alters the focus on the midrange which has a huge bearing on the overall sound. Throb brings in some crazy low end to rattle the walls with. All the fun of a UniVibe and then some.
The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.
Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.
Inspired by: The Depths
Difficulty: Medium
PCB size: 50 x 50mm
ADDENDUM FOR SMALL BEAR KITS:
The dual-gang pot body is 2mm taller than the single-gang pots. If you want your knobs to sit at the same height off of the enclosure face, be sure to install the pots in the enclosure before soldering:
1) Place the pots in the correct position on the PCB, and raise the PCB into the enclosure.
2) While maintaining pressure on the PCB (to hold the pots in place) flip the enclosure and hand tighten a nut on each pot. It may help to bend the leads of the pots to keep the PCB from falling out.)
3) Flip the pedal again, and solder the pots; The bodies of the single gang pots will not rest completely on the PCB, but the leads will pass through the PCB enough to solder.
We also recommend installing the included dust caps on the single-gang pots to reduce the risk of an accidental short.
