First of all, I tried to make this clear, I feel very sad right now because I didn't make it sound right with my gliterratti.... :-\ :-\ :-\
I follow the steps from 3.5 version. I believe I'm good at electronic soldering, but I've still do not have any idea what happened with my glitterratti..

I want to cry right now, because I haven't idea to do with it. I checked wiring, what I've found the IN pin connected with Ground, it just a simple clue, but I still do not how to fix it, so please help....
My first assumption is I've got wrong in soldering the switch, because the LED turned on but what I've heard was a buzzing everywhere and I don't get my true bypass...
My glitterrattii is still naked-unboxed and I believe I should have the bypass when it turned off, but I haven't.
I just got buzzing and noise sound everywhere, I couldn't here my guitar sound...
So, Please help me to solve this problem...I'm really frustrated here....I really appreciate with your help and experiences....
----------------------------
Assumptions:
1) bad wiring in 3 pdt, I don't know how to, please help
2) bad wiring joins....I will upload the pictures tomorrow (I believe I have fixed my wiring)
3) I still use the part as mentioned in 3.5 Glitterratti version, I soldered the pots in the right direction (3-2-1), but I believe that I missed a point, but I don't know....
4)..etc
Regards,
No stress... You will get it figured out. If I was you I'd make an audio probe then trace the input signal until you find the problem.
Post a pic of your switch too and I'll check it.
Did you ground the sleeves of your jacks? If you have the effect unboxed you need to ground the jacks, otherwise you won't hear anything on bypass except for noise...

Yes Kaleb, I ground my sleeves of my jacks correctly with the 3 pdt ground and PCB ground, I double checked with my multitester, and it result good ground connected.... :)
Take a big, deep breath! Things will be ok!
It sounds like you're on the right track, but I'll just recommend a few things for you if you're new at this:
1. Check that your parts are the right value, don't assume they are
2. Check that your parts are the right direction - some parts have a right way and a wrong way to go in, so check those out.
You're wiring could be suspect, but we can't tell that until you have some pictures up. Get those up and we'll be happy to help.

1) now When I jacked in 9V adaptor, my Led going turn on, but there are a lot of noise here, no guitar sound
2) when I press, again, I don't get bypass guitar sound, I believe this is about my 3 pdt wiring view was wrong, so please tell me what should do with the wiring, currently noob here...
Thanks all :) :) :) :)
The lit LED means at least you're getting power to the LED--check to see if you're getting power to the board by: placing one probe of a Multi Meter on the 9v pad on the board and the other probe on ground. Hopefully you're getting 9v DC or something very near it.
Your view of the switch looks correct, but there may be a soldering or mechanical problem
Next, getting a bypassed sound should be one of the easiest and and most essential things to fix. Plug in your guitar cable and inspect the jack to make sure that everything is touching that should and nothing else (ie that the signal is grounded). Next inspect your switch, looking for ANY tiny solder bridges or wire hairs (this was the source of a problem in my first build) that are straying off and touching something else. Along with that, test the continuity between all the lugs and make sure they are switching correctly:
if a 3pdt is
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
when your LED is NOT lit,
-you should be able to measure 0 ohms of resistance between lugs 4,7, 5, 8 (check to make sure you're not getting 0 ohms resistance between 4,7,5,8 and any other lugs)
to clarify:
(http://i.imgur.com/NWdDh.jpg)
when the pcb is bypassed, put one probe of your multi meter on any of the lugs with an arrow pointing at them and put the other probe on any other lug with an arrow pointing at it. You should measure 0 ohms resistance or get a *beep on your DMM. Check between all of them to be safe.
Now move one of your probes to any of the lugs that DONT have an arrow pointing at them. You should get a different reading...something like infinite, OVRLD, NA, etc
-Finally, lugs 2, 6 and 9 should measure 0 ohms of resistance between them. and with nothing else..."
*this tests both the possibility of a soldering mistake OR a faulty switch. Some cheap switches may be defective--my first build's switch was defective due to overheating with a large solder gun
inspect the path from lug 6 to your output jack

Just make sure you understand the signal flow from guitar cable-->input jack-->jack lug-->switch lug #2-->lug #9-->#6 (when bypassed)-->output jack lug-->output jack-->cable and that everything should "flow" from one place to the next without any part touching somewhere else/ground
Okay, I try to upload this one, thanks for the suggestion
1) placing one probe of a Multi Meter on the 9v pad on the board and the other probe on ground. Hopefully you're getting 9v DC or something very near it.
yeayy.. I've got 9.04 V DC on my board, but nothing happened, still same sound, so this is the pic

Am I wrong ?
If I do, then I read again about your post then I make some assumption here...
inspect the path from lug 6 to your output jack, so the 6 is wired with the 2 and 9, mean they are connected ?
your suggestion
1 2\ 3
4--5 \6
7--8 \9
mine
-going to LED------1 2\ 3--- Out pin of my Glitterrattii board
4 5 \ 6-- connected to tip mono
-to ground,4/7/8 7--8 \9 (2 , 9 connected to sleeve mono)
my 5 connected to IN pin board, 4/7/8 connected to stereo ground
-- and \ mean connected, and this is right way ? so should I connect my 3 pdt 4pin to 5 ping ? I think it will be short circuit.....so could you please tell me what should I do ? :) :) please guide me....
anyway, thank you for your concern and help, I'm really appreciate it :)
First you've got the numbering for the 3PDT wrong. It should be
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
You've got the switch mostly correct except for that ground connection to lug 9. If you connected lug 9 to ground, then you'd be grounding the signal out regardless of which throw you have selected. I'll bet if you cut that brown wire you'll get signal.

If that doesn't fix your problem, some of your solder joints look suspect.
Not sure what kind of soldering iron your using but it doesn't look like there's enough heat transfer to fully melt the solder making a solid bond. A few of your joints look real good while many others are blobs which could be potential cold solder joints/problems. Try turning up the tempature on your iron (if you can), apply a little fresh solder to the iron(tinning) and re-melt them.
thankyou bigmufffuzzwizz :) :) :)
here I made some a schem of your reply, if you don't mind please correct me if I'm wrong

:) :) nice post bro.... I believe I've got wrong in my 3 PDT direction, about the soldering joint, I will fix it soon :)
I think BMFW was just saying that my numbering system was not the normal way to look at a switch, but

Are you saying that your middle column is connecting to the right column? If so, you'd need to turn the switch 90 degrees clockwise and apply the wiring diagram to the switch in that position
A 3pdt should switch like

my lug no 9 is connected with IN tip, am I wrong ? should lug no 9 connected to the ground ?
Yes, I've read about the beavisaudio one, but I still don't get the idea of the application. I tried to connect my middle column to the right column (yes), and if I turn the switch 90 clockwise, what kind of wiring diagram should I do to the switch ? I believe, it will change the switch orientation again. About this switch, I try to draw again my switch orientation.
Based on my previous orientation
1-2-3
4-5-6
7-8-9
I tried to convert in orientation
1-4-7
2-5-8

What do you mean by "sleeve tip" - that's actually %100 not possible.
The tip and sleeve are two separate parts of a plug. You could mean several things by this statement, and you need to clarify which one you mean:
the input tip
the input sleeve
the output tip
the output sleeve

No, that's good. It is slightly different than what is pictured in the wiring diagram, which could be confusing. But it should work just fine.

Ok, calm down. All these numbers are making things more confusing than they need to be. So lets not use numbers and ASCII diagrams anymore. I get a feeling like there is some kind of language barrier here. What is your native language?
you can use Google Translate (http://translate.google.com/) with anything in this thread that is confusing...
I think understanding how a 3dpt works will help you to get yours working
please reread the second half of my post (http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=3361.msg29539#msg29539) and measure the resistance on your switch to see what the problem is
Indeed.
This wiring diagram is very clear and should be easy to understand:

My native language is chinese, currently work in Singapore. I try read again and understand the messages which have been posted here, I'm sorry for the gap and my bad English understanding. Currently still studying here :) :). Actually, I've been used the google translate to translate this all of conversation in Chinese language. It kind a weird, so I try to calm down and read again the message... :) :)
About ASCII numbering, okay, I will not post again..sorry for the inconvenience

Yes, they aren't connected to the ground, should I connect them to the ground ? :) :)
Hello everyone,
first of all I want to say HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012 for all members...
ok, back to glitterrattii project, Today, I start to do this project again and do some testing...
I've read carefully and follow the instructions, some of them are from http://madbeanpedals.com/tutorials/downloads/StandardWiring_MBP.pdf and http://www.singlecoil.com/docs/ab.pdf
also from here http://www.diystompboxes.com/tbbox/tbbox.jpg
I tried to re-soldering my 3 PDT lugs too, I reviewed some of my lugs (from my latest post and photos), but I still don't get my bypassed sound, so I decide to take a short break and post some questions here about my project.
question;
Now, I try to un-soldering my Glitterrattii 3 PDT, remove all the cables and try to re-soldering again, so please tell me, where do I have to re-soldering the wires from my glitterrattii board on 3PDT lugs?
EDITED:
Right now, I able to do bypass sound from Glitterrattii 3 PDT, I've found my mistake in TRS female wiring. I found the clue when I opened my several stompboxes and do several trial and error soldering. Now, the problem is.
I try to turn on my Glitterratti but there is no sound on it, just noise buzzing anywhere. I don't have idea about my mistake, then I turn off my 3 PDT, I get my bypassed guitar sound.

Please help me...
Thank you
If you have sound in Bypass and not when the pedal is engaged, the problem could be many things. I can tell you that your wiring looks very poor, and it makes it very difficult to see what's going on there. I understand that's probably hard to hear, but from our perspective you're not really sharing things that will help us help you.
Have you seen the "rules for getting tech help" thread? You should go check that out and see the sort of information that will really help us. A whole bunch of pictures of your wiring and switch don't really help in this case, but pictures of your PCB might help at this point. Really you need to go back and work the steps of debugging - checking to see if your parts are correct and oriented properly, using an audio probe to follow the signal, and those sorts of things.
I'm happy to help, you just need to give us different information than you have.
Jacob

Thank you Jacob for your concern, about my Glitterrattii project, right now, I have two Glitterrattii single sided PCB, I removed some parts from 1st board into 2nd board (new one), I do re-soldering tbe parts and I still face same problem which my Glitterrattii doesn't give me any overdrive sound.
I'm still curious what is the main problem of my Glitterrattii. I tried to write down all of my problem into Gen-Tech rules.
(1) Project Name
-Glitterrattii
(2) General description of the problem
- Finally, I've got my bypassed guitar sound, directly, but when I pressed my 3 PDT (make the Glitterrattii on), nothing happened, just small buzzing sound when I turned the pot into max.
(3) Steps that you have taken to try to resolve the issue
- My previous soldering is poor, so I try to make another board, and re soldering the parts.
- Checking the 3 PDT lugs value and logic with the board
- Checking the IC1 (JRC4558D) and IC2 (TL02) for the voltage
- Checking the TRS in jack and out jack for the wiring
(4) List any substitutions you used for parts/values
-I don't use any subs for the parts, I still follow the original parts, I didn't increase C1
to 220n, C10 and C11 to 68n and C7, C12 to 10n. (bass friendly)
Please Jacob, give me your advice in advance :) :) I'm getting hopeless right now
Thank You
Finally, it works..
After long winding road to build......
My Gliterrattii has been rocked out!!!
I'll update the sound sample, I still have a spare board to make once more.... I believe with using Sprague cap and Mallory cap will give me a better result of my next Glitterrattii...
Anybody has been tried to change the caps into High Grade quality caps ?
Cheers
