When you see confident people in group situations, you must remember that they're only confident because they've practiced lots. And that's what you have to do too... :-) Good luck THE best way to do it is to do something like speaking in a group and do it again and again and again.

That's the reason you're uncomfortable in the first place. That, and you absolutely must start speaking up in class. Face the fear and act. Once you face the fear and start to get more successes under your belt, you will gain confidence.

Also, how would you wire a DC power input (you can't have a useful effect with just 9V batteries after all)? Your videos have been very helpful and are greatly appreciated.

Some effects sound better on a 9V battery and the batteries last a very long time with some effects, but yes there is also a DC power input. Maybe I will have a future tutorial on wiring the DC input jack. @JohnFritzler John, it is going to the positive lug of the DC power input.

Yes it is true bypass. True bypass means that when the effect is off there is no signal going into the circuit board and none coming out of it. You do not need stereo jacks for that, mono jacks work fine. I use a stereo jack on the input side to power up the effect when you plug a guitar chord into it, but that is a different concept from true bypass. Thanks for listening.

Thanks! So wiring 2 inputs from the same contacts on the mono jack works then? @wnorcott

This is how the wiring works. 1) one wire from the input jack goes to the footswitch 2) one wire from the output jack goes to the footwitch just like it looks at 1:15 the jumper on the bottom of footswitch connects them together when switch is OFF. 3) the input and ouput wires of the board get soldered to the footswitch like it looks at 1:31. The other contacts of the mono jacks is ground, no wire there. Bill @Covers4Christ You only need 1 wire to the mono jacks, the signal wire.
