Hi Everyone,
This is my first post here. I've been building studio gear for several years, but recently got a hankering for some variety and decided to build a few pedals. Everything has been great so far, and I've completed several nicely-functioning boxes! It's pleasant to work with voltages that aren't trying to kill you.
I'm about to start a Parentheses fuzz. I feel pretty comfortable with the schematic, but I'm curious about adding in an expression jack for the octave control. Will the attached diagram from the PedalPCB wiki function correctly for this application? And is there a specific type of isolated TRS jack that I should use (are there even different types -- like switching vs non-switching)?
Apologies for these very basic questions. Since my experience is with rack gear, I've never even thought about an expression pedal and I feel oddly unsure of what I'm doing.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Also, I think I probably should have asked this in the "Modifications" section, but I'm new to the forum and haven't quite gotten the lay of the land yet. If mods want to move this, by all means please do.
