 Mark,

That's strange indeed, the noise however disappears when I shorten the delaytime !!
What caps did you use for the picofarad range instead of ceramics ?

Alf,
Hi, This one is only suggestion: Try replace 0.082uf all three. Parallel the two cap 0.068uf (683K) + 0.022uf (223K) to make = 0.09uf. If your tiresome to do this just use 0.1(104K) to all three. By the way I already solved my Rebote Popping switch. The culprit is the FET 2n5484 on the millenium. I replaced it with 2n5458 its magic the pop disappear...  I'm going to recommend it to the forum to help other who's dilemma is the same.

Alf.
It so happen mine is :icon_biggrin: I never suggested it to you before. Only the 7805 TO-220 type that I used and the 20k trimmer isn't it. It so happen 0.082uf is not available anywhere here that is why I opted to use two caps parellel value with 0.068uf + 0.022uf but has a value of 0.09uf isn't it. I use three of these. Maybe I'll borrow a diigital camera so you could see how crowded my pcb is.. :icon_lol: I think this maybe the magic you know.."Capacitance" maybe giving it little more the sound may not be distorted no more.... Well it's up to you as I said.  About the MXR noisegate I'll share with you my new Boss NS2 on that forum :icon_razz: Thanks.
