In my easyvibe my bias voltages is 4.12V instead of 3.8V   

is this any bad or good? should I try to reduce it to 3.8V to have more swing or sweep in the LFO?  or 4.12V is just as good (enough) as 3.8V???

should i change the LED in the bias regulation section to reduce the value of the bias from 4.12V to 3.8V (changing low current leds for cristaline high brightness leds)???

I don't think it matters that the bias voltage is a bit higher than it should be. If it sounds good I would just leave it how it is.
The type of LEDs used in the LFO and the sort of LDRs used will have much more of an effect on how it works than a slight difference in the bias voltage.

John Hollis answer me (as I wrote him a Email)  ;D


it's make no difference if the bias voltage is some more than 3,8V as this could change with the leds you choose, but won't affect the way the LFO sweeps and the sound of the Pedal....

GREAT!!! :icon_mrgreen:
