The voltage across the led terminals never goes above 0.1V or so on a hard strum, not enough to cause the led to light up or interact with the LDR. Any ideas on what could be going wrong?

You can run the negative side of the main led to a DPDT switch for the cubed LFO mod, and have one side go right back to the negative side on the main board, and then the other side of the switch goes through another led in series and back to the board negative. Gives you a rate led for the LFO, plus with the included trimmer you can adjust it to ideal brightness for any led. It works great and looks dope. <br />-BrettBetterOffShredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14915216721556964789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-87735041839655874402016-11-28T10:49:49.067+00:002016-11-28T10:49:49.067+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03557579155666904331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-90001470187157658252016-08-19T20:42:02.025+01:002016-08-19T20:42:02.025+01:00Yes, all the grounds should be connected together....Yes, all the grounds should be connected together. <br /><br />It's likely that there's some other problem with your circuit... my guess is a short between ground and 9v somewhere (which is why it would seem to be working when they're not all connected together).saurabhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378290802952795073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-30903392289508296022016-07-18T16:09:34.241+01:002016-07-18T16:09:34.241+01:00should I be connecting all the grounds together in...should I be connecting all the grounds together including the input and output gnds? connecting the in and out gnds, kills the sound totally, and without, sound is pass through and some kind of effect is going on.
