Home › Forums › Help/Technical Questions › Good Vibes – Internal trim pot
Does anyone have an idea what Good Vibes internal trim pot exactly does ??? I haven’t had enough courage to tweak it yet as I don’t want to mess it up. Could there be a chance to adjust it’s “hiccuping” when using higher intensity settings?
Its an alignment pot for the analog delay section.
PLEASE leave it alone.
We get analog delay pedals in the shop all the time because a user has gone in and starts tweaking blindly.
Thanks for your reply! I haven’t tweaked it and I will leave it as it is.:cheese:
I had to adjust mine because my pedal stopped working. It would come on and I’d hear sound, but no effect. Is it bad I had to adjust the trim pot?
If its working now your good but many people are not so lucky when they adjust the analog effects trim pots. It often winds up people have to send it back in for a full alignment.
That is the tricky thing about analog BBD delays and delay based effects.
Right on. I just hope it keeps working for me. I love the pedal and any other EHX product I’ve used. Thanks for the swift reply.
I thought the good vibes was optical based, not BBD?
Scruffle y0u are VERY right! Thank you. I was thinking of the horror stories of the dozens of Memory Man returns with trim pots screwed up with out proper alignment tools.
With the Good Vibes it is completely optical like the original Univibe or even the Worm/Wiggler.
The trim pot inside sets the lower range of the INTENSITY knob and then ultimately the taper of the INTENSITY knob.
that said its not a great idea to jump in and start turning trim post.
