Title: GoldMember (La Vache, Thunderpuss content)
Post by: wolfingsworth on October 13, 2012, 10:52:42 PM
Still finding the sweet spot on the La Vache side, but I really like the transparent OD's lately so it's a nice addition to the arsenal. The Thunderpuss is my new "secret ingredient". Even with the gain turned all the way down, it adds a brightness without being harsh. These two seem to be paired nicely. The only other thing I may do is add a switch to swap the order in the signal chain. Anyone care to add any input on achieving this?

The yellow is non-boosted La Vache and the blue is boost engaged.

I hope the attached schematic helps. Just connect "Send 1" & "Send 2" to the inputs of your pcb's and "Return 1" & "Return 2" to the outputs. "From input" takes the send from your bypass 3PDT and "To output" gets it back there!

There are plenty of other schemes around, some including LED's etc. but I've used this and it works. Your choice of toggle or stomp switch, I prefer toggle. Enjoy!

Thanks Dutch! That takes the guesswork out of it.

Nice build!
And +1 thanks for order switcher using a simple switch- saved to library- very cool!
