Breakout board question.

[Phil hodson]

Hi all

Like a total idiot I ordered some 3PDT break out boards for buffered effects. When I was supposed to order standard SPDT break out boards.
The buffered ones have one extra hole marked BP.
Can I use these in stead of the standard ones? Is there anything I need to do to make it work?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I think I will try that. I’m finishing up an XC Phase at the moment and it works on my test bed but as soon as I add the switch I get nothing. Just the bypassed sound. I have tried two switch/breakout boards and neither work. I can’t believe I f-up’d two switches. So will just try wiring it direct now. Thanks though. Guess those buffered boards will go in the growing pile of stuff I ordered by mistake

Just keep those "mistake-purchase piles", they eventually come in handy at some point — at least, that's what I've found.

I’m sure they will. Just hope the box holding them is big enough! Still the learning curve is good

Boy was that embarrassing.
Still have to mow around the damed thing.

I hate it when that happens
