so your first version works, but did you test your second by itself? it might be something more than just the interconnect gone wrong, so check your second output sounds same as first when you feed it clean input.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I just tried them both out and both are good to go.  I was really stumped last night.  I tried again this morning and i noticed that on my breadboard that power doesn't go across the ENTIRE row of my breadboard.  It stops halfway down the rail, then you have to jumper across to the 2nd half of the board.  I jumpered and.........IT WORKS!  Not only that, it sounds GREAT!  I have already been trying different combinations of transistors.  I have been a pedal user all my life, but now I think I am going to be even more obsessed with building, however, this early in the game, frustration is hitting pretty hard, haha

Hey, its me again, I was wondering if you could tell me what kind of switch that the double muff uses to switch from 1 muff circuit to 2 muffs cascading into each other.  It is a slider and is 2 positions.  Here is the schematic.  I think the switcher is in the top right.

to post an image, it needs to be an image file format. pdf won't do. then you post it to a hosting site, and they'll give you a link to the image. pick one for the right size of image, and direct to the image rather than the page it is on, then copy/paste into the tags provided by the . done.

from what little I can make out of that circuit, the output of the first is hard wired to the input of the second. a single pole, double throw (spdt) then selects between out1 and out2. the bypass switch then (half) connects to the common of the 1/2 select switch. a dpdt switch instead would enable dual led indicators, for on1 or on2.

and that breadboard gap has caught out some real big names around here, so don't sweat it. and good work.

Thanks for the tips and the positive energy!  I put in an order for a bunch of components last night and got caught up at looking at light up switches.  I'm a sucker for lights, haha.  I didn't get any switches yet so, as soon as I get offa here.
