paragon (king of tone) charge pump

[paulbarrette]

I looked at a few other schematics and don't see a charge pump in the design, e.g. theseus (aeonfx). I am wondering what the difference is without it. I am wondering why it was added.

If i choose to remove the charge pump, is there a wiring fix required?

thanks

niceeeeeee build maaannnn ! newbie question incoming though, how exactly do you by pass the 18V charge pump ? did you wire jumped D7 D14 and D15 or you just left empty the ic diodes and caps 21 22 10 ? and also does it makes it a 9V or you would need a 18V power supply ?

C10, C11 -> 100uF
C21, C22 -> empty
D7 -> 5817
D14, D15 -> bypass, using jumper and connect below hole of both d14 & d15.

I think there's a diagram someone drew around here too but this question has been asked and answered so the info is out there.

Edit: these are not my suggestions nor have I tested them, so take anything I found on the topic with a grain of salt.

That makes sense.

Good luck! I think the diagram I found was for eliminating the kliche charge pump so maybe I lied about that one.

Maybe I will keep it but it is good to know how to disable it.

@GizzWizzKing You didn't lie...

Never seen Casablanca but that got me laughing. You all have to keep me honest and correct me if I'm a bonehead!
