I notice there's a big knob labelled "Fuzz" in the first video which the player keeps turned right down.

What's the "fuzz" setting in your video? I can't tell since the pots shafts don't have knobs and mostly don't have lines drawn on. Looking for a mysterious distortion wouldn't be that mysterious in a circuit with a "fuzz" knob turned up, would it?!? ;)

To be honest, I don't hear anything massively unexpected for a echo circuit that isn't boxed up and can be pushed to oscillating feedback. That makes weird crunchy noises, like yours does. That's normal, pretty much. Could it be quieter? Yes, a bit. Might it be quieter in a shielded box? Yes, perhaps. Could the problem be a bad joint somewhere or something else equally simple? Yes, possibly.

There's certainly nothing that screams "huge mistake" here. I think your circuit is basically ok. There might be some small thing still to find, but there's nothing fundamentally wrong with it (like a fried chip or anything).

I think so top that it should bei mostly okay, but i never Had a Pedal that Made a Sound without an guitar plugged in. And it is not my First delay Pedal.
I have a bluelay and it is quiet.

Additionally i directly messaged the admins at the Facebook PCB guitar mania tec Page and None of them told me it would be an intended Sound.
It Just seem to bei hard to find. I will measure today everything related to the VA.
