It's been a minute... or two.
I had this boxed up and it motor-boated like a late sixties Evinrude two stroke outboard that desperately needs a new spark plug.
Some stuff up in there, put it in the 'to re-visit later' pile as I had other things pressing in my life.
Turns out I had some wrong schematic connections in the pt2399 section of board,
@Chuck D. Bones had another gracious look at the schematic I had drawn up and pointed me to the goof ups, including a screwy Diptrace footprint for the 2N3906.
Ordered an updated corrected board and it all works. Have to try a bit more with it to see how I like the settings, only tested it so far, all knobbies and outputs work, so yaya, big yay.
I laid this out specially for my pedal board where I do have a bit of reverb always on at end of chain, so no footswitch and that
just allowed to shoehorn it with two stacked boards into a 125B. Tight as the Bishops daughter.
