I need some help! If any body has a perfboard layout for the dan armstrong orange squeezer. I would create my own but I haven't been able to figure out how to convert from a schematic to a layout. Just too many things in my head at once I guess! Thanks

Tonepad has a great PCB layout for an orange squeezer.  I've built one myself from their layout. It's excellent.

See http://www.storm-software.co.yu/diy/index.php?project=layouts and scroll down for the perfboard layout. You need to install DIY Layout Creator to view it, but I recommend this anyway as its a useful tool for laying out designs on perf, vero or PCB.

BTW, I built the Orange Squeezer with two controls, which I think is a mistake as once you've spent time hitting the sweetspot you want it to stay put. So IMHO the onboard trimmer is better and just have the level control.

Ditto on the Tonepad Orange Squeezer Layout. It's pretty straight forward to use it as a guide to perf from. Also, ditto on the on-board bias pot. It really has a narrow range of usable sweep. I've built 2 of these; one on perf using the TP layout as a guide and one using a GGG PCB (excellent quality board by the way) They both sound great.
