At some point I'm gonna have to make an official press statement if these mix-ups keep on happening . The relevant Volker is @[silent:arts]. But nice work .

Nice build!
Also got my parts together, and started wiring today. Still parts missing (PSU, knobs) but frontpanel.de made a wonderful work on the panel.Nice build!
I also took 2 w492 pcbs from proaudiogc. Can't wait to do this project!

That doesn't sound normal to me, but let's check a few things to see if we can narrow it down. Which PCBs are you using, and how do you have the unit connected - line in/out on audio interface, etc? Balanced I/O?Is this a normal behaviour?
How low is low? As in, what level dBu are you feeding in, and what level are you getting out assuming all controls are flat? What THD are you measuring? I use the free Room EQ Wizard (REW) software for things like that.... mine needs to be fed with a really low signal because it overdrives really soon.
That doesn't sound right, but again, what levels are you seeing for the noise? How are you powering your unit? If you can share some photos too, that might help.Moreover I've experienced a huge HF noise starting from 1000khz to 20000khz and up.
Mine are black 11mm Selco/Sifam S111 collet knobs with C111 colored caps, but your shafts look like a bigger diameter than mine, and the biggest collet they make for those is for 4mm shafts. The frequency select pots I used are 4mm shaft Omeg’s discussed way back in this thread, and for the gain pots I used 1/8” shaft center detent that CAPI sells.Update. Covered caps. Not 100% happy, still looking for better ones. If somebody has an idea...
