Like a footswitch-shaped expression pedal? Is that kind of what you're picturing?

Here's one - I populated a Rat board (not boxed, may be a factor), and I get a crazy amount of squealing when using certain humbuckers. Seems to be an issue people have faced before, and putting a buffer in front solves it completely. Has anyone installed either a little jfet buffer before a Rat board or else used something like this? I'm not super familiar with the wide world of buffers, but the C-Buffer 3PDT one looks to be pre-effect, which is what I need. Maybe this isn't something many people deal with? I dunno, this is my first time messin with this circuit. I like it more than I thought I would.
Didn't DigiTech do one?

Yes. But picture a DIY Moog Taurus with stomp switches instead of levers.
The Hangmanfx diy kit looks like what I'm after, just not for $40 each
. Looks like it is a hall sensor using magnets and a 3d printed holder.

MAKE SURE TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT POTENTIOMETER VALUE! & check out our bulk pricing! The StompExpress DIY Kit allows you to build a StompExpress footswitch into any pedal build you want to replace any knob you want. It’ll appear to be a simple bypass footswitch at first look, but m

Voyeurism.
Probably just stability on the breadboard. 10 legs vs 6

So you don't have to clip out every other pin.

heh
thank you!
i'm actually looking at using that board to make changing a pot orientation more straightforward, while still being able to use the pot as an attachment point for a board to an enclosure..
i did a build with the pot flying over the board and i got it to work out, but i'd rather solder a pot to that breakout board and then use the corresponding 321 holes on the breakout board and some header pins instead of doing pic related.. which works, but.. .eh...it looks like that pot board will just let me mirror the pads without the mess of wire..

if metal film resistors are better in every way than carbon film resistors, except for price.. why would a build doc call for a 1/4w carbon film resistor as a pulldown resistor... and not be that specific about any of the the rest of the resistors on the given board?
just that one?
I don't see a point of doing this if the only difference is cost. it's a microamp clean boost clone, nothing exotic.. but the doc does state this as an oc manufacturer spec.. i've seen other, cleaner boosts not do this, so i'm assuming it's noted for those who want the exact clone type thing..

that's what i thought.. it's for cork sniffers then.. getting as close to 1:1 as you can is great, but there is a too far..
i went and read about them because it seems the guitarpcb version of the board aspires to be a 1:1 clone of the schem (aside from it being a real true bypass instead of mxr's shitty 2pdt method, of course).. so them being specific about it made me curious.. it's just the input pull down resistor too.
I'm just going to use a metal film one.. i won't have to wait for those to come on the slow boat. it's almost 2027
