Clipping Mod for Kliche mini

[rozencratz]

Hey all,
I have a Kliche mini board and want to add some mods to the clipping section. I want to be able to choose between stock, Red LEDs like the Notaklon, and Ge Transistors wired as diodes like the Keeley Manis Klone. I'd appreciate some guidance on what type of switch would work, and how it needs to be wired, in order to allow me to accomplish this using the Kliche mini PCB.

Thanks very much
-Ryan

Best use an additional board like this

DPDT Wiring Board = 100’s of Mod options.

<h2>The best mod board for your DPDT switch. Adding it to a 3PDT gives you an LED row!</h2>

with a on/off/on switch.
Wire the LEDs to the main board, they have the highest Vf.

The DPDT boards from GPCB are great, I have a handful of them.

They're not absolutely necessary though.

Thanks for the visual. Yes, I need to get my breadboarding going, or buy one of those diode boxes they sell at LMS.

Get the breadboarding going;
also, you can build your own diode-clipping boxes with some dipswitches or rotary switch and some vero/perf.
Rotary and a wild six-clipper option here.

Bluedmc's got it with that diagram.

Here's how it would look with some diodes instead of resistors:

If it's just clipping to ground with a no-diodes option, you could just use a SPDT...

With an on-on-on switch, there are ways to wire it so you don't have to worry about fV of the diodes — stick the LEDs or whatever on whatever position of the switch you want (down/middle/up).

For example:

(REPLACE CAPS with diodes)

The above diagram would require a Type 2 on-on-on, but with adjusting the jumper could be made to work with a Type 1 on-on-on:
