Planning on ordering a batch of 5 of the 125b from jlcpcb soon, already preordered the two parts not in stock (20 pin headers and one of the ICs), are there any gotchas on the latest revision? Looks to be straight forward, no adjustments needed on the parts layout. Also cheaper than I thought, $107 before shipping! I was also curious about if there was any noise noticed from the latest revision with the low pass filters, or if that completely took care of the issue (for the people who have built them recently). Thanks!

I think you are good to go (for all of your questions), I didn’t have to preorder any parts when I built mine. I did because the readme said I needed to but then when I went to place the order, it was already in stock so I asked jlcpcb to refund me for those and cancel the preordered parts and they did
the 20 pin header there was another part number for it that I found
Sorry I can’t remember specifics, but we could/should update the document if you can reconcile the specifics of this…

@kshep Found the discrepancy, the link in the readme at the top 125b directory under “features” step 13 links to a different template than the one in “GuitarPedal125b/docs/Readme” under step 7. Looks like the holes on the sides and top were adjusted downward towards the bottom lid (as opposed to the pedal face), giving more clearance for the pcb. Just to
double check, which one is correct?

I used the one linked here and it was correct DaisySeedProjects/Hardware/GuitarPedal125b/docs/README.md at main · bkshepherd/DaisySeedProjects · GitHub
I just updated/fixed the discrepency you found, thanks! I double checked by looking at the pictures above in this thread and you can see @Burpydave got unlucky 
(the comparison pics between his and mine right after show which template is correct so I updated the bad link)

I paid $109 (total) for 5x PCB with only 2x PCBA, soooo whatever you are doing for 5x at $107 seems like a win!

@xconverge Awesome, thanks for updating!
Thanks for fixing that discrepancy! I thought I had updated all the old links in the documentation, but I guess I missed one!

I ordered 5 of the 125b rev 6 boards, used the premade gerbers, total cost with shipping and taxes came out right at $150. I think I’ll fully build 2 or 3 initially, I’m working on some UV print art to put on the enclosures. Excited to get a couple of the new versions on my pedalboard! The original rev 4 that @kshep sent me is great, but I fried the daisy seed messing around with it so all I have are the rev 7 daisy seeds, it’s usable but a little noisy through my amp. I tried the latest DaisySeedProject build and all the new effects are awesome! Particularly like the looper, pitchshifter, and multi delay. The tuner is impressive as well, it’s giving me ideas for more things to do with the screen! I’d really like to make a multi layer looper, like a CBA Blooper type pedal, and the screen could be helpful to show what’s going on.

I think the screen usage I did for the tuner and the momentary pitch shift dive bomb ramp up/ramp down was fun! Totally inspired by what I saw in the chopper effect.
The looper was 100% a passthrough to daisySP but was great for me to work out a way to somewhat cleanly use the alternate footswitch within an effect

Question about using presets with the latest DaisySeedProjects code, what’s the intended way to save/recall them? Looks like I can save a preset by holding both footswitches, and then it increments the available count, however when I cycle power it seems to erase the saved presets.
My understanding is that it’s supposed to work like this:
- You press both foot switches and it saves to the default preset slot (0), it should display a message to the UI saying “Saving…”.
- Then you can go into the Preset menu and change the Preset # to something different like 1.
- Go back and mess with your parameters and press both foot switches again. It should display a messaging to the UI saying “Saving…” again.
- Now if you switch back to preset 0 it should have the initially stored values and if you switch to Preset #1 it should have those latest values.
This should all survive powering off the device. But I’m seeing the same thing as you. It seems all is lost. I’m going to start troubleshooting this as it seems something broke with all this.
I just pushed a fix for this issue. Hopefully that addresses the problem.

I posted this on the Projects section, but just to update - finally put everything together. Still a lot of work to do. Unlisted video showing the app control with sound samples and some photos. just wanted to thank the forum members for support and inspiration.

You have been busy! Looks awesome, very PositiveGrid/Spark-ish UI is really neat.
Are you going to be publishing source code, not a big deal but I will definitely peek around at a few of the parts I am most interested in if so!
I added some new effects in a “new-gml-modules” branch on the DaisySeedProjects repo, including:
Cloudseed reverb
Amp module
NAM module
Sci-Fi (reverb/pitch shift/overdrive)
Spectral Delay
Delay (only the delay half of my reverb/delay module)
Polyoctave
4 midi keyboard modules
I had to change up a few things in the code, added some dependencies, changed the block size to 48, and set -Ofast optimization and cpu boost, and added effects handling for the midi notes. Looking for feedback before committing to the main branch. Enjoy!

Unable to test this, but looking forward to any incorporation of new effects, into the main. Hope these’s enough ram to load the ever enlarging .bin file…!

Hello, I can’t download the project selected by the blue box. Do you have any ideas?
Sorry, I’m not good at using GitHub.
Woops, deleted my previous reply as I realized I got the projects mixed up.
@KEJING You need to provide some more information what you were doing and what is the error you are getting?
@KEJING I usually use the following command to get all submodules:
“git submodule update —init —recursive”
Minus the quotes, and the dashes are double dashes, the formatting on this forum is showing just one line. Eigen is stored on Gitlab, not GitHub, so that might be part of the problem.
