1776 Effects Multiplex Jr.

 Schematic and info HERE .

Original calls for a VTL5C3 vactrol but since they are obsolete and stupidly expensive the layout calls for a home made vactrol. Just socket the LED and LDR to find the right combo.

  1. A very nice delay/Mod pedal. Pity I've build it last week from another layout. Otherwise I would give it a try.

    1. Good to know! I'm curious about if you used a vactrol or a home made LDR/LED combo?

  2. A LDR/LED. And it works beautifully.

    1. I have some VTL5C6's do you know if it works as a replacement for VTL5C3?

  3. I'm gonna try to build this in a week or two after I get parts. Anyone use this vero layout with success? Really stoked to try!

  4. I did this a few months ago and it's all good except for one little thing.. My depth pot had no control over the intensity of the LED. The LED always pulsed on maximum intensity but it still didn't modulate at all.
    I didn't put any time into troubleshooting, didn't even box it, and it might have been a problem on my end. But it's worth looking into if anyone else's does the same thing.
    Also I seem to remember there being more cuts and/or links than the layout shows. Sorry, I wish I could rember exactly. I should have reported months ago because my memory is shit.
