i want to build a sho and a buffer in one pedal, but im not sure, if the buffer would be better on the output, and id like to be always on, the pcbs are differents, the buffer its a dual buffer, the second buffer would be on a others jacks to make the last on the loops and go direct to the amp, but im not so sure on how to wire the first to be always on and only activate the booster, can it be done??
Input jack > Buffer > 3PDT switch (SHO booster wired in like a typical effect)

so the output of the buffer will be also on the same lug of the SHO input right??, or in the same lug of the output jack??

It goes to the input of the switch that controls the boost - just where the input jack would normally go. Think of it this way: The buffer just goes in series with the line coming in from the input jack.

that makes sense, i was cencerned also about the impedance of the SHO, would the buffer change that and alter the sound??

Nothing to worry about there.
