Works a charm. Love that pedal, really increased the versatility of my Mig.
Lest we forget FilterCap's crucial input to get it working on the Amp side though. He saved our bacon there!

That he did, I owe both you guys.

Pish posh, it was a really fun project. I like designing stuff like that and Owen's switcher for his OCD and Peavey Classic 30.

ohhh mike i gots a mod i wanna put past you
its for a hax ring mod
i wanna put a killswitch in there
but instead of killing the whole signal it just gives you a clean guitar signal
for glitchy coolness

Ah I don't mod other people's pedals mate, I would probably build such a thing into an external pedal which has the HAX in a loop and blends back in some Clean signal.

Hey Mike, I built this over the last couple of days and it took me ages to figure out why it wasn't working...
C1, the polarity should be the other way.
C3, needs to come down another row to 'F'
and I think the green wire should go to 'fuzz 1' not 'fuzz 3'
lol, that was a hell of a nightmare for a novice builder diy-er, but I leaned a lot from it!!
p.s. that 2N5088 bazz fuzz sounds fucking great!!

What program are you using to make those layouts? It looks way nicer than DIY Layout Creator on my PC

I didn't make them IvIark did, I'll ask him.
I need to start learning to them myself too, so I'll find out.

I was wondering how to read veroboard layouts (more put of curiosity than any ambition to build anything soon) and came across this site that has fair whack of information on it. I thought it was pertinent and decided to post it here:

Yes, I was wondering how to read these as well. Do you connect everything that is on row a together and then everything that is on the columns together? Or is it not that easy? And what is that red square with a dot in it?

sooo, I think my question was missed. but I don't understand how to read veroboard diagrams.
If I were to make a point to point layout for the salt booster, would this be correct?

veroboard is a special kind of printed circuit board with rows of holes connected together. so all the holes in each row are connected unless you cut the trace (as mike indicates here with the red squares).

Tq Mike,
Just like to ask you. Where do the wire goes (switch P on Riot vero layout). And maybe some drawing would be great. Thank you again and sorry for my noob question.
