Yes, that's the one I was referencing.

So instead of a straight wire connecting the two points I need a cap and resistor on either side of the switch? Any values in particular I should use?

So with the knowledge of which points work, could I just run a loop through the circuit, and use a wire with a cap and resistor to connect the points so I could get an idea of sound without soldering anything in, right?

Thanks for the advice Midwayfair, you're always so nice and helpful! Reminds me that I need to spend more time on here!

I am building a King Tut and I really wanted to add a momentary feedback loop to it. I was wondering if the process is the same as adding a feedback loop to other muff circuits by connecting the emitters from Q2 and Q3 or if there is something else I need to do.

Then I would have it wired up to a normally open SPST stomper right?

Thanks in advance!

I briefly contemplated doing the vero layout of the Cavedweller, but quickly decided against it. Out of my options I am most intrigued by the MP Jr, so it looks like I will be ordering one of those when I do my next parts order! Where do you guys like to source PT2399s from? I saw an eBay auction with 10 for $6, would that be a decent route to take? I plan on building a few more PT delays and it wouldn't hurt to have a small batch to pick from.

I'd also like to incorporate a 'slam' switch using a momentary FS, can anyone explain how to wire one of those up for me? Preferably with a diagram, as I am a visual person. Sorry if this is a redundant question, I tried Google but couldn't really find what I was looking for.

Thanks for all the help so far, I'm really looking forward to progressing and sharing my work with this awesome community! Special shout out to Midwayfair,  I absolutely love your work and plan on building one of your Hamlet+ delays when I'm less skittish about using a $20 component 

I suppose I should also ask about the Kingslayer II while I have you all here. It should be an easy enough build for a beginner right? I've done three vero layouts so far without much trouble,  so I'm sure I can put one together with relative ease, I just like to have a second opinion about stuff like this!

That looks perfect! Thanks I will definitely pick that up next time I order parts!

Hey all, I just got into pedal building recently and I have so far built a few vero layouts from Tagboard Effects with some relative success. I really want to do some PCBs for my next two builds, I wanted to build a Kingslayer and a delay, but I'm not sure where to start. I was gonna do a Cavedweller, with the low parts count it seemed like a pretty straightforward build, but with them being out of stock for the time being I was wondering what would be a good alternative? I really like modulated delays and plan on building a Hamlet+ when I have a few more builds under my belt, I don't wanna mess with tap tempo until I feel more confident.

I was looking at the Zero Point Mini and the Multiplex Jr, would either of those be too complex for my tiny brain? I feel pretty confident as is, but I would just like some input from some more experienced builders around here, which would you do if you were me? I want to build a simple delay just to have one, not looking for anything too crazy, I have a DL4, RE20, and DD20, so I have a ton of delay. I just want to have a board full of stuff that I built ! 

For frame of reference, the circuits I've built so far are the DAM Meathead with switchable caps, Effdub Flapjack OD, and Basic Audio Scarab Deluxe from the Tagboard effects layouts.

Also, first post! I'm really looking forward for my progression into this hobby, so far I almost like it more than actually playing guitar!
