<p>Hello again.  Please excuse the vague questions, but I'm a novice.  Can anyone tell me what I could expect if my distortion effect wasn't working?  I've found that after I create a drone and start playing with effects, the two pots controlling the distortion amount and distortion volume don't seem to affect my sound.  I've considered the possibility that the effect is more noticeable under certain LPF or BPF conditions, but I don't know enough to predict what a problem with the distortion circuit would produce.  I went over the PCB and re soldered a couple of suspicious looking joints, I was about to replace the 10K resistor right next to the distortion amount pot, but I honestly have no idea why that would do anything, lol.  Any testing suggestions or circuit explanations?  Thanks.
