Parentheses Fuzz (in progress)

I think in the V1 version of the board they were flipped (because that’s the way they were in the actual Life Pedal)

is it recommended to do the same, still?

If you have a V2 or mini board put them in the way the board specifies, don’t forget to match them closely for forward voltage

so, V1 and D9K's, put em in opposite what the symbol is drawn as on the board, is what you're saying.

The red stripe on the D9K’s mark the anode...
On most diodes then stripe marks the cathode...
On the boards the stripe marks the cathode...

If the diodes are leaky enough and Q2's beta is high enough, then you can get away with putting the diodes in backwards. There is really no good reason to put them in backwards. Measure Q2's emitter voltage. If it's under 2V, then you need to reverse the diodes.

This is what I was not picking up on in pervious posts about it. Thanks.
