I am in the process of building a small clone chorus pedal using a board from Tonepad.   Can anyone tell me what the 100k trimpot controls and a starting point voltage that I should set it to?

Thanks!

If I remember correctly, the trim pot does not really have a "correct voltage" per say...

When you complete the circuit, you will need to adjust the trimpot until you hear the chorus effect, then adjust it to ear.

It has been a while since I built this circuit but, I believe that you will have a narrow to medium range on the trimmer for the chorus effect to "come alive" so adjust SLOWLY. Then, when you find the range on the trimmer, fine tune it until it suits your taste.

Good Luck  ;D

Thank you!  I am just waiting for a couple of last parts from Mouser and Small Bear and then will be able to finish it up.
