Zvex Super Hard On

The inventobox module SHO schem has other differences...a .01 cap and 1k series combo at the input. ...?

I already built mine point to point on top of the 5k pot and hot glued everything in place. Zener to ground. I used a .01 cap but no 1k resistor.

Alright, I need some help.  I followed the OP's pcb layout except for leaving out the D1 diode and for D2 I used a 9.1 Zener diode.  I have everything wired up and it has a bad hiss pretty much on any volume.  I don't know much about building pedals so any help would be appreciated.  Also should I put a 1N4148 diode for D1 or should I leave it out?  Thanks in advance.

If I wanted to add a stomp switch... Where would that go in the circuit? I know it would probably go near the power supply however will signal still go through when it is bypassed? Trying to make a pedal... This is going to be my first project. Seems like a relatively simple one and a great addition to my pedal board.

Thanks!

If you want to know how to wire a stomp switch to bypass an effect, here are the different options:

Here's another good description of wiring the switch and LED:
