Loose circuit switcher - my most used build

[sonic_explorer]

This is a helper pedal/switcher I made for testing 3 different loose circuits prior to boxing. I tend to make a lot more circuit builds than I end up boxing up, sometimes I make a few variations of a circuit type and want to shoot them out to see which I want to box up, this box helps for that.

This box sits on my desk, so it has 3 dpdt switches to turn on/off each effect independently instead of stomp switches - also I can visually see if the dpdt is on or of, so I don't need LEDs. The alligator clips allow me to quickly switch out circuits. I always use red for +9V, black for Ground, blue for effect In, and green for effect Out - I use these same colors for the wires attached to the PCB too so I never mix things up.

I use this thing daily on my desktop and find it super helpful. It was a really quick build with minimal guts too.

That's a really good idea. Might steal and throw an order switcher in it.
