  • Page 4: General Guideline For Components

    General guideline for components  Capacitors: All values under 1nF should be ceramic disks. From 1nF up to 1uF should be MKT (foil/metal film capacitors) and over 1uF use electrolyte caps (or tantalum) 16V+ rated and watch out for polarity! ...

  • Page 6: Offboard Wiring

    Offboard wiring Anode (long leg) Cathode (short leg) R led Sleeve Ring Ring Output Jack Input Jack Footswitch Notice that in the “off” position the effect input is connected to ground to prevent possible oscillation. The LED requires a resistor (R led in the diagram) depending on the type of LED you are using. An ultra-bright red or blue LED requires a 4k7 resistor, Green requires 680R.

    Adding the buffer Build the buffer as mentioned in the separate building instructions. To add it to the booster, wire it as follows: Anode (long leg) Cathode (short leg) Anode (long leg) Cathode (short leg) Sleeve Ring Ring Input Jack Output Jack Boost sw Buffer sw...
  • Page 8: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting All PCB’s have been e-tested 100% in the factory, so there should not be a connection problem on the PCB itself. The board is not working (at all), what now?  Check if your 9V is plugged in correctly (and/or soldered correctly on the board). ...
