Need basic help reading a schematic

[JRods_wag]

Last week I made a super, super simple distortion circuit that I found on instrucables.com and all went flawlessly, so I decided to try something a little more difficult. So I'm making a JHS Morning Glory, using this schematic: http://music.codydeschenes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/JHS-Morning-Glory-Schematic.png

I have a good, albeit basic, understanding of circuits and their components, but two parts of this schematic baffle me. 1. In the power section right after the LED theres a circle with an X through it that says SW. I have no idea what this is. 2. In the power section there's a broken line in the wire with an 8 and a 4 by each end of the wire, the 4 going to ground. I have no idea what this means.

Those are my main two questions, but I have a few other quick ones.

The circles with +'s that say +9v connect to the power jack, and the circles with +'s that say VB connect to each other, right?

There's only one IC chip here, right? It's just represented in two different sections? And if a pin, in this case 4, isn't assigned anywhere it just stays open right? Not grounded?

Would it be difficult to wire this for true bypass?

Thanks for any help

JROD..  (as an alien in area 51 you should know this.. )

the SW means switch ( footswitch.)

the 4-8  is the positive and ground of the IC.  8+  4-


there is only 1 chip, but it is a 'dual' opamp... 2 in 1.

wire up as TB as always..no problem.

So this schematic doesn't show the true bypass wiring, but that's what this indicates? If I don't do true bypass, does this connect to the switch that just has a 1 and a 2?

Thanks for the reply!

The 'SW' in the top left corner just shows that the LED is connected to the footswitch---when the footswitch is on, the LED is grounded and turns on. There are many ways to wire a 3PDT switch for true bypass, but for example, in this one: http://beavisaudio.com/techpages/StompboxWiring/ the - side of the LED is connected to the bottom left footswitch lug. That's what the 'SW' on your schematic means.

The switch that has a 1 and a 2 in your schematic is the Morning Glory's bright cut switch. It should be a SPST switch.... or you can use a SPDT switch and only wire two lugs.

Ohh okay that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for clearing that up for me
