Lukas: the very last paragraph of the "Always ON" pdf file explains what bossarea just did.  |

| Sorry to be replying to this so late but... My EH-2 also turns on by itself when i put a cable into it. I think that when it receves a signal it automaticly turns on. |

Yep. Inserting a cable itno the input jack triggers the power if you're using batteries. That's why it's always recommended that you unplug the cable from the input when the pedal is not in use (to prolong battery life). It's a good element of the design, but it's a bit of a hassle if you're running several pedals on battery power at a gig.
***
Valuable tip for performing musicians: Bring a back-up power supply for your pedal board.
In the middle of a recent gig, where I had no backup, someone tripped over the lead on my power supply, breaking the cord clean off where it goes into the transformer.  |

Sob.... I tried to do the job but I was unlucky. Even reversing the position of the two transistors, my CE-5 behave the same way as before. So I was compelled to remove one of them to have the pedal always on.
In the meanwhile, I found the DD-2/DD-3 circuit diagram and saw that the flip-flop circuit is completely different from the AC-1 bossarea provided in his post.
Looking at the PCB of my CE-5 (oh, by the way... is a first model CE-5, analog) I can see that the flip-flop circuit is something between the simplier AC-1 circuit and the DD-3 one.
In my CE-5 and also in the DD-3 there is a third transistor.
Someone is able to tell me if there is a way to reach the result to have my pedal simply reverse its behavior intead of being always on?
Thank you very much!

| I have 4 Boss pedals. The GE-7 is the only one that switches on with the power supply. |

I have original schematics of:
AC-2 BD-2 BF-2 CE-2 CE-300 DC-2 DF-2 DM-2 DS-1 DS-2 GE-7 MT-2 MZ-2
NF-1 NS-2 OC-2 RV-3 SP-1 TW-1 VB-2
Are you interested? (plasmabolt@yahoo.com)
I´m searching for an old EH MemoryMan Echo/Chorus schematic.
Does anyone can help me on this?
