    I have been building pedals as a hobby and having decent results however I have hit a wall on some of them not working. My question is in general, what do the trace lines on both sides of the board represent. Is this the power or the signal path?    i am in over my head as I have not been trained in electronic circuits. Any response if greatly appreciated

    The traces are the lines in the schematic connecting the components, they can be signal or power.  They run traces on both sides because they can’t cross. They are not drawn like the schematic because that would waste space on the board. Hope that helps.
