volume knob works on Hyped Boost?

hey guys!
a question regarding the hyped boost:
on the original FZ-2 pedal, the volume knob stops working while on boost mode, so the gain knob takes the role of output volume;

but two things got me really intrigued:

1- the hyped boost project has a volume knob

2- in this video this guy seems to be getting distortion from the pedal

I asked him on the comments, but didn't get any answer, so this is why I'm asking it here;

so in this circuit the gain knob really work as gain? can I also get those fuzz tones from the video?

if yes, this is an instant buy 😆

thanks!
 
Yes, the volume works in all three modes. If you're wanting to use the boost as more of an overdrive, consider increasing the value of the gain pot to 100-250kA

thank you for the answer!!
whats the effect on changing the pot value? (I'm 100% dummy in electronics, I just follow the instructions)

Increasing it will give you more gain at the higher end of the sweep. Not terribly useful in the fuzz modes, but I like it in the boost mode
