No problem - glad I could help !

Have a great night !

just wondering if someone could verify the pcb layout, my brain is fried after doing it(it's my 1st)

are you sure you want to make a double layer board? they're pain in the ass to etch until you order them in a PCB making company.

dellamorte

im prob gonna send it to a pcb company. for me it was easier to draw the schem in diptrace and have it convert it to a board than making a vero from layout scratch.
i was going to try it on vero first tho, but im thinking vero will be too big to fit in a cavity.
i suppose i could make it into a pedal tho  :D

i have done up a single sided board for it, just wondering if someone can double check it?

Did you use an auto-router or something? There is a lot of room for improvement. How soon would you need a layout?

dellamorte

yeah i did i didn't have the patience or experience to do it manually. this is the 1st time i have done a layout of my own from a schematic. any improvements would be more than welcome, there is no huge rush as it is a project for myself.
