Hi !!!
I just finished Tonepad's trem Lune. It works great,without any problems...I have just a little question : Is it normal that the LFO led blinks when the effect is in bypass ?...
Thank you !!!

Yes.
Quite normal.
However, you can change one thing and have the LED turn off with the circuit.
Disconnect the (-) side of the LED connection and wire that part of the LED to the 3PDT switch.
I don't know if this is an "original" mod of my own 'cause chances are I read it somewhere (probably here!  :icon_smile: ) but,
I do know it worked fine for my Lune build.
Here's a pic;

great idea !!!
I love this tremolo, really easy to build, cool sounds and noiseless... :icon_biggrin:

And now we got some fancy pcbs available for quick delivery too: silk screen, solder mask, silver pads, RoHS (sorry for the self promotion!).

Fp,

I'm about to build it with your board. 

Will the blinking LED automatically turn off when in bypass after I build it with your board (and Tonepad's recommended offboard wiring)?

Or will I too need to use the mod suggested by markm?  Thanks!

You'd have to do what Markm said.

You can also have 2 LEDs, one for bypass and one for LFO speed indication.
