Awesome! So the power connects to the corresponding pad on each foot switch PCB, and then wires run to each effect PCB separately? I have been wondering about the best way to handle power wiring in a multi-effect after struggling with it a little in the 2 in 1 I just did...I think I also saw somewhere that some people will use a small piece of perf as sort of a power board for routing power to multiple PCBs.

Do you think the 1590DD could reasonably accommodate 4 foot switches, or would it be too tight?

  Wow, that is inspiring

First Madbean build: order-switching Moodring+Zero Point Micro II. This was my 2nd "non-kit" build and a lot harder than the 1st, a bazz fuss. Learned a lot thru trial and error and at the end of the day it works! Here are some of the issues I ran into:

-Almost screwed myself by not being careful enough with drilling...both for pots fitting right and for fitting both PCB's
-Had a cool multi-color LED for bypass switch indicator set to cycle between colors, but stay red if you flipped a switch...worked great until I accidentally blew the LED! I then realized that my order-switcher LED's could also by the bypass indicator, and decided to save the fancy "on-light" for another build. Unfortunately still have the drill-holes for the LED and switch, but oh well...
-Footswitches too close...works ok, but need more spacing in the future
-Forgot to plan for the Moodring dry-kill switch, but luckily it fit down by the footswitches. It's actually "under" the ZPM II rather than Moodring, but whatever...
