OK thank-you.
I have a 2nd Effect board that I have populated with everything except the pots and switches. Reluctant to go further and get same result.
I used the original Softtouch board and tried the one for the above with the 1st effect board with same result.
I tried disconnecting the IN/Out from the Softtouch board and just going direct to the mini-mu thru my test rig (i.e. using its in/out jacks and bypass switch but still using Softtouch power supply).  Now I'm just getting loud hum so afraid I messed something up.
I'll hold off doing anything else.

I'm on vacay right now but if you can hold off another week or so I'll dig into this.

And no. Uploaded an old avatar, that worked. Uploaded a newer image, and:

FWIW, this image, only stored on the MadBean machine instead of postimages.

Testing too. Somehow it did not know me, so I made an account, passed the IQ test, and opened a Reply box. All well so far. Over at DIYStompBoxes someone was reporting erratic troubles.   


AND it did post and I am Editing.

Hi -

Thanks for the reply.  The one in the upper left is a jumper if you use the non-latching relay and since I used the latching relay it doesn't get poulated (but two other jumpers do which I have populated).  The one to the right of the relay is a transistor which is shadowed by the relay in the photo so hard to see (i.e. it is populated)

There look to be 2 components that are unpopulated compared to beans photo in the minimu build doc. I can't seem to find a sps v3 build doc so not sure what they are or their function. Maybe this is nothing...

If I wanted to just make this a plain true bypass with a 3PDT the old fashioned way I assume I would :

1) Wire In & Out on mini-mu board directly to 3PDT
2) Leave +9v, -9v and GD connected between Soft Touch and Mini-Mu board
3) Wire up LED old fashioned way with 3PDT and CLR
4) Wire the board mounted input and output jacks directly to 3PDT
5) Leave the BU and Hi and FS pads empty on both boards

Anything I would need to remove or clip on the Soft Touch Board ?
