Testing Rig
JMKPCBs Testing Rig pedal troubleshooting tool.
Thermionic Studios has two(2) Testing Rig tools. We have two of these because we had to build the first to make sure we could build it correctly, and then we built the second while creating a video of assembling said Testing Rig, both to show how to assemble one and then to show how it works.
Controls
- Knob 1 - "Control1": Adjusts the control1 feature with fully clockwise being maximum.
- Knob 2 - "Control2": Adjusts the control2 feature with fully clockwise being maximum.
- Footswitch 1 - "On/Off": This footswitch toggles the pedal between engaged/active ("On"), and bypassed ("Off")
Bypass: Buffered/True
Delete whichever header piece is incorrect and provide a small description for the other.
General Information
The Testing Rig is actually a very simple tool that combines 2 functions into a single PCB (printed circuit board) along with some additional terminals and switching logic that allows you to use the 2 functions to find out where your pedal assembly went bad so you can go back to your PCB and fix it
Ad-libbing
Never forget that regardless of whatever informational section, good descriptions of things (in this case pedals) require ad-libbing additional Subjects/Titles, and Sub-Subjects/Titles. This is important as particular and peculiar features regarding a pedal stand out, and thus require calling out. Let form follow function.
Pedal Manual
Upload and link a digital version of the provider's manual for corresponding pedal. When unavailable, this page may be the best reference for use of such pedal.
Copyright may prevent us from sharing the manual and this should also be mentioned, if applicable.
Build Details
In the instance where this is a pedal built by Thermionic Studios, provide the specifics of the build in this section here. In the instance of a production pedal, either post an image of the completed PCB of the production in the enclosure, or remove this page section entirely.
