Pickup Phase (Error?) v4.37 #812

Hello, I believe there to be a computation error within the Guitar Analyzer. I am almost certain that in SuperSwitch position 3, the humbucker north and south coils are wired so that they are in the correct phase, however, the Analyzer says they are opposite phase to the rest of the guitar only in position 3. This seems odd, so I am submitting the file I am working on for your reference. If I am incorrect and the error is my fault, I would like to know as I am spinning my wheels like a crazy person! Thanks in advance; I love the program!

In 9 cases out of 10 it's user/wiring error and I spend a ton of time debugging when it's not a software issue. Please double check the wiring on the pickups and the switch

Will do, thanks for the input!

I have spent over ten hours this week and two more today trying to figure out why the humbucker in super switch position 3 is reverse phase, and I cannot figure it out. the NETLIST shows everything connected correctly, but the analyzer shows the phase is flipped. I would not be mad if it was an error on my part, but the suffering needs to end :) When you have a chance, could you take a look? Thanks in advance.

Take a look at this...I think you need to flip middle and neck wires

Switch configuration: [K/N/B.ON1:SuperSwitch.3:SW1.ON1]
Connected node groups:    [0.015uF.1, Tone.2]   [0.015uF.2, Bridge.North Start, Bridge.South Finish, GND, Middle.South Finish, Neck.North Finish, Output Jack.Sleeve, Volume.3]    [Bridge.North Finish, Bridge.South Start, Neck.North Start, Output Jack.Tip, Volume.2]    [Tone.3, Volume.1]

So, when SW is on 1, that puts the humbucker in parallel and messes up any wiring. For super switch positions 1-4, S1 needs to be ON2. Sorry I did not clarify that earlier

Not sure, at this point it's easier to build it and verify :) I don't know how to help without burning hours and hours, it's a complicated diagram.

I agree with you on that. I'll let you know how it goes once parts arrive. Thanks again!
