Building the closed circuit limiter/booster. I don't have any BAT42 diodes. I have BAT41s and 1N34s on hand. Does anyone smarter than me know if they would be a suitable replacement in this circuit, or any other diodes? Or should I try to hunt down some BAT42s if they are key to the sound/function of this pedal. thanks!

BAT42s are schottky diodes so technically any other schottky will work such as your BAT41s. If you're not 100% comfortable then install some sockets and try the diodes you have out. When you do eventually get your BAT42s just swap em in there real quick.

I think a lot of the 1n34's you get commercially are schottky's anyway
