Here's Pickdropper's 3in1 1590BB. Unfortunately, the photographs have been photobucketed

My photobucket fixer mod lets me see them... but for some reason my preferred image host isn't letting me upload them. That is really frustrating.

I can't see pickdropper's pedal, but good to read the posts on this stuff to see where people may hiccup.

I have a crazy idea, and I either need to be talked off the ledge, or pushed onto it! I like the idea of a delay, tremolo and distortion. The problem comes back to the age old debate: trem before or after distortion? delay before or after distortion?

I, personally, like tremolo before distortion, and delay after (maybe the other way around - can't remember without looking at my board - ANYWAY...)

I came up with an idea using a 6PDT rotary switch where in position one, the audio signal is INPUT > DISTORTION > DELAY > OUTPUT (tremolo is off), and in position 2, it's INPUT > TREMOLO > DISTORTION > OUTPUT (delay is off).

This way, distortion is always available, my preferred order of operations is always upheld, the switching is still true bypass, all the LEDs still work AND I only need 2 footswitches so I can have a tap tempo for the tremolo. Here's a hastily made diagram (sorry if they're too big) - I know it's crazy, but please help me figure out if it can be done!

In my Up/Down Muff, I added a switch to change the order of the Octave Up and Muff, which proved awesome.  I think it would be crazy complicated to do to re-arrange 3 effects, but something like that could be done for 2 of your circuits.

Use a switch to change the order of trem before/after dirt so you never have to have it turned off.

Will the two 1590B Bean boards fit 1590BB? I am thinking to build 2x 1.95"x1.95" boards with 1590BB.
