Earthquaker Devices Grey Channel

Hi folks,
is it possible to wire this circuit without the on/off 3pdt?
I mean, just using the "dual off-board wiring" by Mark?

To me it looks pretty doable, just want to get the blog's opinion about it.

Also, does it matter which transistor to use?
Are there any substitute for 2N7000?

Because I'm waiting for a new order from Tayda and of course I forgot to buy them...

Thanks!

Forgot to link the layout's page.

Thanks for any tip!

You mean so the effect is always on?

If that’s the case just wire the board input and outputs directly to the jacks and connect your power supply and pots etc as usual

I mean taking IN & OUT from Effect A to one 3PDT and IN & OUT from Effect B to another 3PDT, using "Dual Offboard Wiring".
In other words, it's like having two separate effects in the same enclosure.

What about 2N7000 substitute?

Thanks!

Thanks a lot!

It looks like running the dual off board instead of the on-off and channel switcher should work to me, but I'm no expert.  Give a try and see what happens.

Hi folks,
the layout main page already got the answer to my original question.
In the source cited:
http://effectslayouts.blogspot.it/2016/08/earthquaker-devices-grey-channel.html?m=1
You could read:

You can wire two separate on/off footswitches if you want...

So, I guess I'll give it a try and let you know!

Thanks!

Yeah just use the dual effect wiring, use input and output A to one switch and input and output B to the other
