few questions on wiring
Alright, so I plan on building a SHO clone based on this: https://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z93 ... iny222.png
I'm looking at some wiring diagrams over at General Guitar Gadgets and I'm not sure which to use. I was thinking one of these: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/dia ... dcjack.gif

One of them has the input grounded while the other doesn't. What does this mean? And on the wiring diagram there are multiple grounds on the board while the board I want to build only has 1. Do all the ground wires just get connected to this?

The grounded input scheme is to shut down the input of the effect, to avoid crosstalks, and stop it from picking up spurious signals, its mostly useful with high gain circuits. I'd suggest to use it with the SHO.
The Freestompboxes Forum search function is soo great, use the search function..., the S E A R C H function.
Well, I'd prefer to have just one ground point, and avoid ground loops, but that's something irrelevant in an effects pedal, so, it doesn't matter much.
