From the post

This was a request.

You could use external pots instead of trimmers.

Schematic available here.

This is a board layout, a drawing of where each part goes, and the post may link the schematic it was drawn from. Open the layout at Tagboard Effects. No KiCad fragment has been drawn for this circuit yet.

Check before you build · 2 values the reader of this layout was not sure of
  • 2N3906: the '3906' note sits in the top margin above column ~x400; it marks one of the nine BJTs, either the one at the top edge (right of the 470K) or the one two rows below in that column; the count of one 3906 and eight MPSA18 holds either way
  • J201 x2: the two 'J201' margin notes (left edge and bottom edge) are taken to mark the two D-S-G transistors in the lower left
