General builds tips
•
Solder the low profile components first, from short to tall
height. Recommended order: resistors, diodes, IC socket, film-
caps, electrolytics, pots and switches
•
CMOS chips are very sensitive to static charges and can be
easily damaged. It's a good idea to wear a anti-static
wristband or at least avoid wearing a wool jumper and petting
your cat/dog while building...
•
Always use sockets for IC chips and transistors to avoid
heating them directly. It also makes it much easier to swap
them out if needed.
•
Pay special attention to the orientation of the diodes and
electrolytics.
•
There are a LOT of switches and pots on this PCB. Be sure to
place them in the PCB without soldering first, THEN place
them in your drilled enclosure. Gently tighten the nuts to the
enclosure, then solder LAST. Otherwise, it will be really hard to
get this in your enclosure.
•
This PCB's is designed for 16mm Alpha PCB mounted angeled
pots. You could also use solder lug type and just tack some
“legs” with short pieces of wire to each pot to mimic a PCB
mount type.
•
The pots are meant to be mounted on the bottom (solder side)
of the board, and soldered on the top (component side).
•
The square pad represents pin 1 of each pot.
Wiring
The only thing that needs to be wired offboard (except the usual
jacks and bypass switch) is the momentary switch. Since it's a
momentary SPST switch, which connection goes to which lug on the
switch doesn't matter.
Please note: If you are using the Parasit Studio 3PDT-board, you
only need to connect your DC jack to either the 9V and GND
connections on the main board or on the 3PDT-board, not to both.
For more info on how to wire up the bypass stomp switch, jacks
ect, please visit the Parasit Studio website and download the PDF
called ”offboard wiring”. You can find it here:
