i tried building a pedal
nothing fancy, just a signal splitter with killswitches for when the signal splits.

well what happened is that it worked fine but if i flicked either of the switches that were supposed to be dedicated to their specific outputs, it killed the entire thing!
so i though, "ok ill get a stereo jack and have them running opposite eachother, never touching"
figuring that if there was no contact between the two outputs then the switches would work how i wanted them too.

now my problem is that i cant figure out how to wire a stereo jack....
too many tips with no signal coming out of any of em.
*sigh*

its nap time

i hate you dev :mad:
