:ROFLMAO: . . . . cheatmaster

I came by the toggle dress nut for my Parenthesis - if they had a beefy hex nut to 'match' the stomp switch nut you used THAT'D be the bee's knees. As well I came by round, knurled shallow flat nuts for both stomp and toggle switches - options is good!

The larger nut looks killer - I wish someone made something similar for toggles

. . . . maybe it's 'cuz I just watched Batman, but I like the green knobs too - kind of a 'Joker' vibe.

so . . . . . if you combine all of this with an octave circuit what would it look like? Like . . . . potentially octave up AND octave down into the three distortions. Is that even POSSIBLE?

so . . . . an off-topic question; I used to live in a Norwegian corner of Seattle. Volvos were the most common pick amongst the locals . . . . . and common as well was the seat belt dangling from a closed driver's door. Is that just a dumb (common, interestingly) Seattle thing?

right there with you - I promised myself a one-and-done, and have already purchased and received my second PCB o.0

I always drilled holes and secured boards with screws - this alternative TRULY delights me. Thank you!

This is a pre-emptive query - I am basing my concern on what I've read on the forums specifically as it has rarely occurred in Parenthesis and Rat-based dirt boxes. I am just completing a Mini, and may never get as far as a full Parenthesis build (despite having all the components) if it does...

Thanks - must embrace the mantra "do or do not - there is no try" . . . . .

Awesome work - how is the board secured in the enclosure?

Thanks for the info - do you think symmetrical clipping can result in audible oscillation?

Pre-emptively trouble shooting; some have experienced oscillation when there is a combined LED-based boost and distortion circuit in some instances. Could this be caused by identical LEDs in both circuits? Could using a different color or forward voltage value side-step this?

upon further FURTHER review . . . . If I went from the input jack to the distortion circuit as in the recommended wiring, come out of the center lug on the Octave pot to the Boost foot switch in, then from the Boost foot switch out to the center lug return on the PCB I ought to accomplish...

hhmmm . . . okay, glitchy is none too pleasant. I'll report back if the Mini does something similar. I REALLY like the Boost > Distortion fwiw . . . A LOT

Thanks for the leg work - if I get the same wonky behavior out of the Octave I'll give this a go. I am using an octagonal Hammond enclosure and modified pot placement so access to the center lug is possible once it's assembled - accessing C5, however . . . . . o.0

I didn't follow the traces, but it seems like the Mini has the jumpered switch option in the Parenthesis build doc. Leave it to me to mod something I've never built one of, ever . . . . . o.0

Right . . . saw the error of my ways, and you beat me to the post. Think this will result in similar Octave disfunction?

Like this?

Okay . . . to my naive, inexperienced mind if I rewired the jacks in this manner on a Mini would I achieve Boost > Distortion - or just screw the whole pedal up? The top image is the original wiring diagram - the lower is my ill-enlightened notion. Might I need to swap the purple lead as well...
