Neovibe questions

[Jason D]

I finished my Neovibe, and its working!

Only problems:

1. loud click or pop when switched from vibrato and chorus

2. when I play hard (loudly) in vibrato mode the sound clips or distorts

Is this normal? I had a VooDoo Labs vibe, and it didn't have the vibrato mode, so I don't know if this is normal.


Besides that everything else seems good.

Has anyone else here built the Neovibe?

[Jason D]

fixed it...

One of the 1uF caps was shorted together. So, that fixed the pop when switching between chorus and vibrato, and the disorting (splatting).

Good troubleshooting. I was reading the earlier notes and thinking "ah... DC on the output, must be a bad, reversed, or shorted cap" and then I got to your last post.

Good work!

Now, that the Neovibe is working, and sounding great, I want to go ahead with my plans and add on the LERA. I have drawn a pcb and have it ready, combining both your Single LFO Pot mod and the LERA. (Just waiting on the LED/LDRs to get here).

Where exactly would I connect the 2 circuits together?

Thanks again!
