help with a recent switching pedal build...

Try the 1meg resistor in series in your ground wire to reduce the current flowing along it. You could disconnect the ground to your coil/diode connection and fit the resistor in there between the diode and ground wire. (not across the coil though like the diode is connected but in series with the ground)

cheers, i'll grab some one meg resistors and give it try!
