Ok. I've managed to build the 2 knob compression pedal and it seems to be functioning correctly.... when I use a battery. Am I not using the right power supply? I use the same 9v 300ma supply that I use for the overdrive 2? Is that not right?

If it's not the power supply, are the only connections I'm really worrying about the 1 positive and the 2 negatives at the top of the board? I'll take pictures and rewire it, but I thought I'd ask about the power supply first.

Yep. 100% correct. The positive wiring is not interchangeable.

This is why I come here. Customer service!

Thanks guys.

Sunny

PS. I cannot TELL YOU how happy I am that this works after the disaster that was my OD2. Built my confidence right back up!.
