[QUOTE="Mattallica, post: 156756, member: 3748"] I've had another go at making this work before emailing Rob. I discovered that when I back the volume almost off with the guitar, the signal actually makes it through the module. It sounded terrible, but it's there. I tried to balance the guitar volume with the module gain and then the module volume. It was still cutting out. So I came to the conclusion that the input stage is being overloaded. I dropped the grid resistor on V1A down to 10k from 68k. It has now stopped cutting out, even with the guitar volume at 10. So that's a small win. The problem now is that it's very quiet and stills sounds rubbish. Like a crappy distorted fuzz pedal. I'm going to try tweak the resistors between the other gain stages to see if it brings the volume back up, and hopefully sound better. [/QUOTE]
