^thats the schematic
Vcc i am guessing is voltage. How much? (Datasheet here http://ics.nxp.com/products/hef/datasheet/hef4028b.pdf)
Are the switches momentary?
As for the 4066 How do I hook it up? If I understand correctly I would send the "control" (where it says out to 4066 on the above schematic) to pin 13 on the 4066 and that would control the circuit between pins 1 and 2 etc.  (datasheet here http://www.national.com/ds/CD/CD4066BC.pdf

3 V to 15 V.

switchs are momentary yes

and the numbers refer the pins on the 4066

Thanks for the reply

Where do the effect circuits go?

snakey

pure guess but i'd be saying after the transistors. is this some sort of effect switching circuit? switching from 1 effect to another?

The trannies are just to show you which 'switch' is enabled.

The connector 'to 4066 or elec switches' is where that circuit's switching voltages go...therefore it needs another little bit of circuitry to actually switch your analogue signal (typically a CD4066)

It looks like a remote footswitch to control several effects using 4066's in the effects as their bypass circuit, with led's to indicate what is on or bypassed. Seems like it would work good to control a pedalboard. Checkout Tonegod's article: http://www.thetonegod.com/tech/switches/switches.html. Might help clear things up. I don't completely understand it and may be way off.  ???

I'm sorry I was not clear. I know its a switching circuit and I want to build it. I just dont know where the effect should go. I am guessing the in\out from the effects would go to the remaining pins of the 4066.

The numbering on the schematic does not refer to the pin numbering on the 4066, it refers to effect 1,2,3,4,5 these conections go to the control connections on the 4066 which obviously activate each switch.
Each switch in the 4066 will have 3 connections in/out and control. A 4066 has 4 switches and this schematic shows the use of 5 so to use all 5 you would need to use 2 x 4066 chips.

Please at least have 1 forum post before sending me a PM demanding something.

I am still not sure where the effect in and out connect to.

Have you tried to search this  forum for "4066" or 4016", got few hits

Was there some example circuits in EPFM book

They don't connect directly to anything on this schematic.  The signals on the connector shown at the top need to control an analog switch or some other switching system to route the audio.  It looks like the circuit shown is intended to use momentary buttons to produce latching control outputs with LEDs to shown which channel is selected.

MmmPedals

I realize that. I am asking how to hook the 4066. Do I need to use 2 poles of the 4066 for TB?
I skimmed some switching articles. I will read them over better when I have some time.

^^^^^ YES! READ THIS!

Particularly the "Toggle with inverters" part. Basically, for each channel that you use from your schematic you'll need all four switches of a 4066 and half of a 4049 to create a DPDT.

Read this as well http://www.geofex.com/Article_Folders/cd4053/cd4053.htm between them those pages explain pretty much everything you need to know about electronic switching.
