Multiplex Jr.

A 1776 Effects Project

The Multiplex Junior is the Multiplex Echo Machine’s little brother. It’s based off
the EP-3 mode of the Multiplex Echo Machine project. It also includes a very
organic modulation that can go from subtle to vibrato like.

What to expect...
This is not a pristine digital delay, some noise will be experienced. Even tape
delays have noise, it just adds to the character...

Parts Notes :
• For optimum modulation success a VTL5C3 or equivalent is HIGHLY suggested.
I also like the Macron MI1210CLF-R that Small Bear Electronic sells. Make
sure it is the F version. The yellow dot is the ANODE (positive) on this part.

• If you construct your own vactrol with an LDR and LED, I suggest using a LDR
that is 10 to 20K On, 10 Meg Off and a diffused LED.

• All resistors are standard 1/4 watt.

• Caps - Electrolytic’s should be 5 mm Dia. x 11 mm or smaller

• D2 is for the modulation rate/status indicator LED

• The SW1 pads are for connecting a SPDT toggle to turn on or off the
modulation. This can be jumpered with a small wire if you’re running the
modulation all the time (I do!)

• Potentiometers are standard length 16mm PCB mount, but solder lugs can be
used.

• Enclosure size
• This is designed to fit in a 1590B but using a 125B will give just a hair
more room to work in without sacrificing more pedalboard space.

• PT2399‘s
• With the nature of PT2399’s socketing is HIGHLY recommended. Not
all PT2399’s are created equal. Many exhibit higher noise and you’ll
also get some that “motorboat”. Since we aren’t fishing I recommend
buying a few from different suppliers and “demoing” which ones
sound best. Even with the best PT2399’s you will experience some
noise at certain settings of delay time and/or repeats. You can
increase the filtering but the delay will sound more analog then tape.

MODS
Filtering

Replacing C13 and C15 with a higher value (1n5 or 2n2) will reduce noise but
will be less tape like. Socket and adjust to taste if you’re indecisive.

Modulation

You can socket R20 to fine tune your modulation taste or if you rolled your own
vactrol and need some minor adjustments.

WIRING
3PDT wiring is standard FX wiring as shown in Madbean’s wonderful wiring
diagram.

http://www.madbeanpedals.com/tutorials/downloads/StandardWiring_MBP.pdf

The SPST toggle is wired to the SW1 pads on the PCB. You can use a footswitch if
so desired.

Note: D2 is a visual indicator of the modulation rate/status, it is not an on/off


indicator for the effect. It can be PCB mounted. Use the drill guide for proper
enclosure drilling. An additional LED is necessary along with a CLR as shown in
Madbean’s wiring diagram for effect on/off status.


Usage/Selling
The Multiplex Jr. can be used for small quantities of commercial pedal building.
You may not however, offer PCBs as part of a “kit” or redistribute the PCB’s for
sale as a commercial endeavor. All PCB artwork is property of 1776 effects.

If using PCB’s for commercial building please rename your project so there is no
confusion to the end user and it will be clear I offer no official support to those
you sold your pedal to :)

Drill Guide
Print at 100% scale for drilling! If placing in a 1590B make sure to leave
clearance next to enclosure screw corners as the PCB is slightly wider. Dry fit
the PCB template inside to make sure you have clearance and then place the
template on top of the enclosure to center-punch the hole locations.

PCB size 2.16 in. x 2.44 in. (55mm x 62mm)
