Im about to get started in a SHO + Range Master Clone.

Can i use 1 9v dc input for both boards ??
I just connect both inputs to the same dc jack right ??

Also

Is there any way i can reverse the way the effects go ?

Eg. From SHO > Range Master to Range Master > SHO 

??

A spdt/dpdt can do the job ? Or that doesnt work ?? Thanks in advance  ;D  ;D  ;D

The Rangemaster is -9V while the SHO is +9V so you would need a Road Rage or similar to power them both from the same supply.

Have a look at this thread to see how to wire a 3PDT to change the order of two effects

BUT putting a Rangemaster after a another pedal you may run into sound problems, it likes to see the guitar first.

As these are two boost type effects, and so are similar in style, I'm not sure you'd want both on a the same time and next to each other in your chain, would you?  ??? For me, it's much more useful to have overdrive>boost or boost>overdrive settings. Something like the Green Bean and the SHO perhaps? ;)

 So i assume the above can be done with a 3pdt on-on toggle switch?
Any way i can do it with leds indicating left or right channel? :P

If you want to do LEDs with order switching you'll want to use a 4PDT instead. Make the center pole of the 4th switch ground, and attach the cathodes of the LEDs to the two outer lugs.
