Let's hear it for the Silent Circuit

[tete1805]

I totally forgot to join the layout...
Here it is!

Btw, with the old jacks not fitting correctly, usually you can just bend the metal contact back in to position.

Well, I tried since I knew the trick worked pretty well in my pedals with switchcraft outputs, but with these plastic enclosed outputs, I couldn't manage to do it.
So, is the layout correct?

Yes. That's a stereo (TRS) jack in the schematic. You should be off to the races.

Alright!
Will try this next week and keep you posted.
Thanks a lot for the replies.

QUOTE of beej When you remove the jack the circuit is broken so your battery won't drain.

beej- didn't you mean "when you remove the PLUG from the jack the circuit is broken so your battery won't drain" ?

btw - what does beej stand for? does it mean "be EJ" ?

 

[beej]

Yep, I meant plug. (Suppose it would be a bit of a pain to remove the jack every time you're done playing.)

Beej ... a very poor drunken approximation of my last name by a hammered friend many years ago. Just kind of stuck.

Even my wife calls me Beej. Sometimes in the third person. ("What would the Beej like for dinner?" Is the Beej going to stop playing guitar for five minutes? ..."
