| That’s awesome! I’m not totally weird! :) But, yeah, the practice thing has been so important. It’s a habit as much as a hobby now. The music is better understood, and I just shoot for at least 10 mins a day. Usually do longer, sometimes miss days. For the electronics I do a few things: collect and study schematics, draw and study circuits in LTSpice, and breadboard. When I have something I like, I’ll do it in perfboard. I also design them in KiCAD, but haven’t ordered PCBs for a pedal yet. Oh, this gadget is super handy for breadboarding: https://www.arcadiaelectronics.com/product-page/breadboard-p... It’s so nice to get rid of the repetitive stuff. Saw it on a Wampler video, zoomed in and bought. Wish the alternate power was 4.5V vs 5V to avoid having to cookie cutter the voltage divider but whatever. |
