I thought it was you because I see you at offsetguitars sometimes. I’m, 2N3904 over there.
So are you going to do the mod? Its always reversible I suppose.
I don’t mess with digital stuff TBH, just analog because I know I can more than likely fix it if i break it.LOL
Ned FlandersModeratorJust like I suspected, you need to totally bypass the original pot for it to work. Also, the reason the slider was giving incorrect readings IN the unit is because the other parts create resistance and lead to false readings, the only real way of testing resistors and variable resistors is to remove them entirely…as you’ve found out.
BTW, are you tweedbassman from pennypedals?
Ned FlandersModeratorSo he designed the original pulsar then???
Do you know his real name becaus eI’m compiling a list of EHX designers and the pedals they’ve designed and I would like to add him to the list, also do know of all the pedals He’s designed? A list would be fantastic peoples!
Ned FlandersModeratorI’d love to go to NAMM.
Ned FlandersModeratorThe new ones look cool hey! This coming form a old big box fanatic!

Ned FlandersModeratorAhh!
Ned FlandersModeratorCooly, I’d love one of them EQ’s! You get it from eBay? How much?

Ned FlandersModeratorA bit of trivia for you guys: the box of metal is just FIVE super hard ons in series with a marshall tonestack! When I got the schematic I was surprised at first but then it dawned on me, this kind of thing is normal for zach as almost all his pedals contain at least one SHO.
January 17, 2009 at 9:39 pm in reply to: EH Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai Power Supply Australia #91027Ned FlandersModeratorIts pretty simple to use really, you do need to read the manual about the hazarai and reverse looper function etc. Its a fun pedal and I’ve always enjoyed using it, I don’t use delay much at all but this is my favorite delay for sure.
Ned FlandersModeratorYou wire a stereo jack to the 3 lugs on the pot, one jack terminal for each pot terminal. You must wire it in the correct order for it to work so check your expression pedal and see which wire from the Ex pedal stereo cable goes to which lug in the ex pedal pot. Once you have the pinmapping down you can wire in the stereo jack to the POG.
Note: A lot of effects require you to bypass the original pot in the pedal to use an expression pedal so it may also require you to install a 3PDT toggle switch BEFORE the slider pot to bypass it to the exp jack. The signal will always take the path of least resistance and since you will have two pots in together the sweep on the exp pedal will not work as if you’ve bypassed the slider pot completely,you will only have a very minor sweep (rotation of the pot)A lot of people think its as simple as wiring in a jack but in most cases its not and in the POGs case I wouldn’t even bother with it because if your asking how to do it its likely too complicated for you to do. Providing you know what your doing its pretty simple to do and only takes about 20 minutes but I wouldn’t recommend it to a beginner personally. I’d hate to see you destroy your pedal as cool as it is!!!
visit DIYSTOMPBOXES.COM and do a search for “expression pedals” etc for more info if you’re still interested.January 16, 2009 at 10:08 pm in reply to: EH Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai Power Supply Australia #90957Ned FlandersModeratorQuote:Ned to the thread!Here I am, too late it seems…but for future reference.
All you do dude is go to your local music store and buy a boss 9VDC adapter, it will run the SMMH perfectly.
I buy ALL my effects from the USA and I either just buy adapters locally or I buy UK adapters from the USA and use another plug adapter so the UK adapter fits our sockets because the UK are on the same volts as us, 240V 50hZ. Its ok if the adapter is 220V or even 250V, it still works fine.You can buy adapters locally that go between 4 and 12 volts, you adjust it with a switch and also you can change if its center negative or center positive, they are 1,500mA so you can also run a whole lot of pedals off of them, they cost around AU$20. All you need to run a bunch of pedals off them is a daisy chain adapter, you can buy them locally too. These 1,500mA adapters are way cheaper than the BOSS ones and are more powerful so look out for them in the future.
Ned FlandersModeratorMy green sovtek says distortion but all early ones did so.
Ned FlandersModeratorAll you do is swap 3 resistors, that’s it dude.
