Long time reader, first time poster...
Alright, I have built quite a few pedals at this point and have never had one that didn't work, so I'm hoping one of you might be able to see the issue. The only thing I've done differently than most builds is change up the pots due to not being able to find an a25k 16mm pot. I also used an a100k dual gang pot instead of the a50k, but looking at the initial build that Rullywow posted on here, he used an a100k dual gang, so I figured that wasn't an issue. I've used different pots in the past and had different responses than I wanted (bunched up signals, etc), but it's never just not worked. However, if the answer I get is "Look, dumbass, use the right pots and it will work!" I'll actually be thrilled. I'm just putting off removing these until I get some input. I do have an a25k pot, but it's a 9mm, so I've been hesitant to change it. I also have an a50k dual gang that isn't PC mount, so I can use wires if need be.
I've checked the resistors and caps about 3 times to make sure they're all right and they are. I've never had a board with the backside 9V and G lugs, but I'm guessing it is to make it easier to put to direct power if you're not using a PCB on the 3PDT switch. I have tested it with just the front side power, just the backside and both connected. Nothing happens either way.
Thanks so much for any assistance.
