Rebote builders and Anyone,
Hi.  I need your help. I just finished my Rebote 2.5 its nice also from Tonepad. My problem is when I switch on the pedal get POP. I built two project before TS clone and Big Muff from Tonepad also but didn't experience this popping problem. I use the same DPDT switch and same millenium bypass for all of my project. I have 1 meg pull resistor on pcb between input and ground as suggested. Does your Rebote(any version) POP also?  What seems to ??? be the problem? Thanks in advance.

it POP's all the times or just the first time you switch??... sometimes you have to turn it on and off a few times before use it

Sweatalk, Thanks. I found the culprit, the 2n5484 FET that I used on the millenuim!!! I changed it to 2n5458 and it's gone!!! Note: not 2n5485... It's the magic FET 2n5458....... I don't know why but I'm gonna post it to the forum to help other have problem on it. Again, Thanks I really appreciate your kind reply.... from where are you? Me from Philippines.....
