Ey induction! Your bright mode works great! I've put a Pitch Pirate Deluxe after the RCC and it's perfect for those dark settings of the PPD.

Yours doesn't distort at high settings? I'm not so bother because it's only when the volume is far away from unity. But if I order parts to some other place I will try another LDR.

I'm using two leds actually, one for each effect. I've checked them and they don't affect the compression so far, but I think the best thing would be to heatshrink the LDR+LEDs.

The only thing that bothers me is that the indicator led only works with the stock mode. With the bright mode it turns on and stay that way like a common status led. I guess I did something wrong with the little board for the led indicator...

Thanks for your tips!!!
