Wow... thanks so much. I will definately make use of this. Like you, I seldom use standard wirings... and there are plenty of diagrams available for those! I am learning and love experimenting even though my wiring chops have a ways to go. On top of that, I'm also dyslexic - so transposing wiring upside down and backwards often leaves me scratching my head! I'd love to tune in as you progress.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I'll have to come back to this video and download the software the next time I build I guitar with non-standard wiring.
Yep - agreed, it's a really good tool. I used it for my latest over-complicated guitar rewiring project, and made things a lot easier to visualise/plan. Some of the wire options are a bit limited (would be cool to have multi-core cables supported natively) but that can be worked round. And having twin Alegree Chameleon humbuckers (6 wires), a Freeway 3x3-08 switch, 4 push-pull pots, and 2 DP3T switches was probably a bit of an outlier for "normal" use, so I couldn't make best use of its analysis capabilities 😀 Edit: the capacitor values etc can be useful for the "Create BOM" (bill of materials - as you covered) and also "Generate SPICE netlist" - which allows the circuit to be modelled.
I wish I found this a few years ago after exploring the past few weeks. It would definitely be useful to sort out all the options on the Alegree pickups as you said! I’m looking forward to learning more about it.
I couldn't find a pot and search DIY Layout Creator Pot and this was the first hit 🤣 I'm gonna have to go back and watch again for how to do a push/pull. Wish I knew how to do a blend pot as well...
😂 Apparently the manual has instructions for how you can design your own components and contribute to the program. Pretty sure there is a forum too where you can suggest additions as well.
This looks superb. Thanks for sharing and for taking the time to give such a detailed review Arran. I am damn near clueless with wiring so this will be very useful. I also think having pre-made to scale pickups and pots with wiring runs will be really handy for guitar plans
Thanks Jamie. Wiring has probably been my biggest learning curve over the years, and this makes it so much easier and enjoyable! You could potentially draw in/import the shape of your cavity to scale. Hmm, might try that next. 🤔
Man! Thank you for making this video! I've never seen this tool before. I've always just gathered diagrams/schematics of each "block" I want to implement, figure out the inputs and outputs of each one, then assemble the blocks individually, then connect the ins and outs. This makes it so much easier to plan that all out instead of just winging it like i do 😄

This is great, thanks for doing this Arran
My pleasure!

Glad it helped. I’ll be definitely using it with most of my builds moving forward.
G'day Aaran,
Thanks for a great video. I'll have to download & install it, & check it out.
Keep up the good work
Andrew
Cheers! It’s such a helpful program. 👍

It’s definitely worth having a play around with Bart. 👍
The analysis function could be a game changer for me. Thanks for sharing
Glad it was helpful!
Glad I clicked on this video, thanks
It’s an excellent resource, I’m glad I found it!
Looks great but I can't seem to find a Linux version.
That’s annoying. Maybe the developers of the program could offer some advice.
@@adairguitars i'll ask and post response for other Linux users.
I managed to log into my GitHub account after many years but no longer follow the jargon but its there somewhere. 🥴

This is really interesting and useful I will investigate more
I would definitely recommend it. 👍

This is a really great piece of software and this is a great demo! Cheers Dave
Thanks Dave. It’s actually a lot of fun to use too!
Good stuff! Glad to know this exists.
I was very happy when I discovered it!

This program is definitely a hidden gem and so worth using. 👍
