Sorry, another wicked switches question?

[Wales]

I have decide to make the NAND, momentary version of switching from The Tone Godhttp://www.geocities.com/thetonegod/downloads/downloads.html. Every thing makes sense to me except the wiring of the pins for switching. Going threw old threads I seemed to find all the other types of wicked switches other than the one I am making. On the "schematic" for this switch it has eight pins on the one side of the CD4066 and four on the other (12). The CD4066 is a 14 pin. I am new to this and the data sheet made me more confused, so a ray of light would be great. What am I missing?  Did I download the wrong file? Did I miss something in the Tone God article? Any help is great, even sarcastic cause I'm sure its something simple i missed.

Nobody huh, and I even gave you the opportunity to make fun of me.

Shows 7 pins on each side.

That I get but I don't know which of those pins is which, because on the drawing of the "resulting switch" from the wicked switch download that comes in that download package.  On the layout the V+,V-,LED cathode,LED anode, and momentary switch connections are marked but not the resulting DPDT.

I don't think I am explaining myself well but that was the best i could describe it.

I'm guessing but when I look at the PDF, the "big" pads (6 of them) are the DPDT connections.

Yes that is what I thought as well. I couldn't figure out which ones would be which. Well time away from it has led me to realize that I can test the pads with a continuity tester like I would on a standard stomp DPDT. I over complicated it because I was thinking the electronic switching was something different. In the end its still a DPDT.

Thanks for the help aaron.

Hey man,
   I just went through this!!!  I ended up having a bad gate on the 4066!  anyhow I used the momentary cd40106 version.  the offboard wiring to the pads is as follows:

                pad
  board in  O     4
   jack in - O     0
               O      6
                |      6        pad
                |                  O  board out
                |                  O  jack out
                 -------------- O
                   jumper^

I hope that makes sense!!

Sorry for the slow reply.

The boards are laid so that the switch pads are arranged like the bottom of a DPDT switch which hopefully would make it easier wire the switches up.

Oh that makes alot of sense, should have thought of that. Etching as we speak, litterally shakin withe the left hand, and typin like my dad; one finger styles. Thanks for the help
