There is a mostly complete report on this over in the mods section but here are the bullet points.
The art is taken off a beer from There Does Not Exist. Art by @ibayarifins. Great beer, Great art.
  • Mode switch changed to pot
  • Octave blend added to remove octave completely at full ccw
  • Bigger Gain pot for bigger gain
  • Clipping switch for stock/none/circuit bend (oscillation, when octave is fully on it becomes glitchy and kinda pll style lower octave thingy.)
  • Some value tweaks to eq.
I wasn't super into this build when it was stock so I really enjoyed finding ways to make this work really well for my style of playing. As always it was fun to figure out how to get the changes to work with the pcb.

How did you wire up the octave and mode pots pleeeease
 
How did you wire the octave and the mode switch, pleeeeeease
Hi there Quinn. Here is the schematic. I think i matched all the component numbers correctly. Let me know if you need help figuring out how to implement it on the pcb, if that's what your using.

Does the pot instead of switch for mode act as blend in the middle, and individual modes on far left and right side??
Corrent. When the pot is all the way cw or ccw it will be the same as the two positions of the switch. In between is a blend. There are a lot of good tones to be had in between.

Cool! Goes in the notes for whenever I build this.

I saw people add a switch that merely added a 50/50 mode. This is the superior take on that mod. (that might interest @Fuzzonaut)

There's just the B50K pot, right? Nothing else?

Edit: Ah, it's the Tone pot in the schematic.
