PCB Layout ©2014 Pedal Parts Ltd.
If using vertical pin pots, or if you’re mounting standard
pots with header pins or snipped component legs, add
these last. They’ll be covering the pads for other
components once they’re in place.
The power and signal pads on the PCB conform to the
FuzzDog Direct Connection format, so can be paired with the
appropriate daughterboard for quick and easy offboard wiring.
Snap the small metal tag off the pots so they can be mounted flush in the box.
C9, 10 and 11 don’t have to lay flat as shown in the cover image, but it will give
you more clearance when you’re boxing up the circuit.
This is a fairly subtle compression circuit. Don’t expect intense DynaComp /
Ross squish. You may not notice its on until you turn it off!

Test the board!
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES will troubleshooting help
be offered if you have skipped this stage. No exceptions.
Once you’ve finished the circuit it makes sense to test is before
starting on the switch and LED wiring. It’ll cut down
troubleshooting time in the long run. If the circuit works at this
stage, but it doesn’t once you wire up the switch - guess what?
You’ve probably made a mistake with the switch.
Solder some nice, long lengths of wire to the board connections for
9V, GND, IN and OUT. Connect IN and OUT to the jacks as shown.
Connect all the GNDs together (twist them up and add a small
amount of solder to tack it). Connect the battery + lead to the 9V
wire, same method. Plug in. Go!
If it works, crack on and do your switch wiring. If not... aw man.
At least you know the problem is with the circuit. Find out why,
get it working, THEN worry about the switch etc.

Wire it up (if using a daughterboard please refer to the relevant document)
Wiring shown above will disconnect the battery when you remove the jack
plug from the input, and also when a DC plug is inserted.
The Board GND connections don’t all have to directly attach to the board. You
can run a couple of wires from the DC connector, one to the board, another to
the IN jack, then daisy chain that over to the OUT jack.
It doesn’t matter how they all connect, as long as they do.
This circuit is standard, Negative GND. Your power supply should be Tip
Negative / Sleeve Positive. That’s the same as your standard pedals (Boss etc),
and you can safely daisy-chain your supply to this pedal.
