Next solder the 5 pin female socket
into position.

Next you need to make a small
modification to the 3 pots. You need
to snap, cut or file off the small metal
tag that protrudes from the top
surface of the pot body as indicated.
The easiest way is to snap off with
pliers, it comes off very easily. If you
cut or file it off be careful not to
damage the thread on the shaft.
14.
Next you need to make a small
modification to two of the four 3.5mm
jacks sockets.
You need to cut off a small section on
one side of the grounded metal
shroud that surrounds the plastic
body of the jack. Do not cut off any of
the other tabs of metal.
If you don’t have anything you can
cut these with you can also just bend
this small section away from the body
of the jack.
NOTE! This is done otherwise it is
possible (although not 100%) that a
short circuit is made with the wiring
pads that sit at the very end of the
PCB. These wiring pads are not used
in this build.
