Conqueror Supreme Distortion Level

The distortion channel has a significant volume boost when the distortion level cranked is sounding really good and fuzzy. Is this normal for this version on the circuit? I'm not seeing this in the demo vids. I've watched online.
 
Mine works the same way. With the gain and distortion sections bypassed the volume is a lot lower. I like the sounds you can dial in using the other footswitches, and it seems a bit more flexible than the Conqueror Fuzz pedal that I also built. Both pedals are among my favorites from this site.

I mean there's a significant volume discrepancy from the active mode and distortion mode. This seems to be different than the demo vids I've seen. Is that how yours is working?
 
Yes that is how mine. works. Significant difference in volume when active depending on whether the gain and distortion channels are engaged.

I have not watched any vids, but sort of expected that this is how it would work.

there are three modes. • Mid-Range Boost • Active/Bypass • Distortion. When the active is switched on in the demos the volume is really not much different when the distortion is switched on as well. I expected it to work as in the vids?
 
Check to see if you switches for the MRB and Distortion are on the opposite sides where you expect them to be. If so, you can easily use longer wire to switch the positions for those two footswitches. They seem to be reversed on my build, but I never noticed since I usually leave everything on.
