The power and signal pads on the PCB conform
to the FuzzDog Direct Connection format, so
can be paired with the appropriate
daughterboard for quick and easy offboard
wiring. Check the separate daughterboard
document for details.
Be very careful when soldering the diode, LED
and transistors. They’re very sensitive to heat.
You should use some kind of heat sink
(crocodile clip or reverse action tweezers) on
each leg as you solder them. Keep exposure to
heat to a minimum (under 2 seconds).
It’s best to use a socket for the IC unless you’re
confident you can avoid frying it.
Positive (anode) legs of the electrolytic caps go
to the square pads.
Negative (cathode) legs of the diodes go to the
square pads.
Snap the small metal tag off the pots so they
can be mounted flush in the box.
Solder the pots last, as once they’re in place
you’ll have no access to the pads beneath
them.The best way to get the pots lined up is
to first solder one pin of each.
Once they’re tacked in place adjust them so
they’re straight and check to see if the heights
line up. If not, melt that soldered joint and
adjust. Once you’re happy all the pots are
aligned you can solder in the other legs.
RANGE
There’s no correct settting. Simply adjust it until
it sounds good for you.
GAIN
If you aren’t using a GAIN trimmer place a
jumper as shown in red above.
