Continuity checks are all good here.

Thanks for this, i will poke around in it tonight. I didn't get a chance this weekend to check based on your last reply

Just replying to your comment in case you didn't see my last post. Thanks

Sorry for the long delay. Here is a picture of the other side of the board. You can see where I desoldered that cap I had in backwards some of the top layer came off unfortunately

Will do!

Confirmed, they are 5k1

I am pretty sure they were

Says 5028G on the top next the the trim screw. Nothing on the sides

Yes I did, part number bs170-nd

Yep, I've been using a Boss PSA-120S. 9v dc, center negative

They should be, I ordered these ones from digikey https://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/nidec-copal-electronics/CT6EP502/CT6EP502-ND/738314 Maybe they sent the wrong ones? I haven't actually checked them yet

It also behaves differently depending on what power supply I use. With one 9v supply it doesn't produce sound at all other than a high pitched whine.

The two positive leads on the jack are bridged.

I just checked them all and they all range from 7 to 8.5 v when turning the trim pots.

Oh wow you are right. I took it out and put a new 47 uF cap in its place in the proper orientation. The pedal is a little more consistent now but unfortunately still sounds bad, like a bad fuzz pedal.

Here is a picture. I unfortunately bought resistors that were too large so I had to fit everything in real tight, but I don't see anything touching and there are no solder bridges as far as I see.

I will post some pictures tonight. Thanks

Hi guys, I was hoping I could get some help troubleshooting my ocatnaut build. It is really fuzzy and the volume jumps around like crazy. I am not really sure where to begin. Any ideas? Here is a quick recording, first with the pedal off, then on with both pots open all the way...

Okay will do.

Yeah, the popping in mine is quite loud
