Hi there. I was thinking of making a drive circuit with booster and I wanted a toggle to switch between booster running before or after the dirt circuit. Too many things to switch. Seems like I can't figure that out. But I've seen Dr.J Lancelot distortion pedal with this feature. Can't find the schematic for than. Thanks in advance for all the help.

The last pic on the bottom. Effect order switcher. You'll need a 4PDT switch. Small Bear, Tayda?

Probably AliExpress ;D

If the intent is to implement with a toggle, then you can skip the three contacts shown on the right for the status LEDs and make do with a 3PDT toggle, with the position of the bat handle showing which subcircuit comes "first".  I have this built into several pedals, including a Box of Rock that sticks the boost before or after the overdrive.  Handy.

Thank you. Will have to wait a month till the 3pdt toggle will come. Damn
