Wiring two Circuits in Series in one Enclosure

Hello, I wanted to build two independently switchable circuits into one enclosure. In other words a "Stage A" with a footswitch to turn it on/off... going into a "Stage B" with a footswitch to turn it on/off. My guess with the wiring would be to wire like this... In > Stage A 'in...

Re: Help in identifying a diode.

Well, I had thought that the diode had been misplaced, but I just found it. It's a BAT46 schottky diode. Anything special about this diode (higher forward voltage, different clipping tonality, etc)? Or is it just another schottky?

Thanks.

Help in identifying a diode.

Hello everybody, I can't find a picture, but of course I can offer a vague and probably useless description, haha. Anyways, I bought a kit from a site that will remain nameless (just as a precaution) and they included a diode for reverse polarity protection. This diode they included was very small (...

Re: Help with wiring a diode to a dpdt switch...

Hooray! Thank you so much! I'm just about to do the wiring, so I'll test this out. Thanks again!

Re: Help with wiring a diode to a dpdt switch...

Hmmm, maybe I'm just lacking in knowledge (which is usually the case here), but the only way I understood to do a basic parts switch with a dpdt was something like this... Part A >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> * * < Part A Original spot on board #1 >>> * * <Original spot on board #2 Part B >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> * * < Pa...

Help with wiring a diode to a dpdt switch...

Hello everybody, I'm working on another diy project,and I wanted to use a dpdt footswitch (on-on) to switch between two different resistor values. This is not the problem. The problem is that I want to wire an LED indicator to the one side so when I switch from 'normal' to 'other' I can indicate thi...

Re: How to Wire a Variable Capacitor?

I wired mine up differently, but like I said, happy accident... Thanks for the information!

How to Wire a Variable Capacitor?

Hello, everybody. I decided to put up a post on this because a search of the inter-web didn't really bring notable results... On my first pedal build, I stumbled on a lucky/happy accident. I was building an NPN Fuzz Face and wired the 2.2uf cap as a variable capacitor and voila! It worked great as a...

Jordan Bosstone Build weird problem

Hello everyone! This is my first post on the forum, but definitely won't be my last! I started building my own effects about 6 months ago and have completed a number of projects (although I'm still a noob as I am learning something new every day). Anyways, I built a Jordan Bosstone, great sound out ...
