(1) Project Name: Soy Sauce (lectric FX)
(2) General description of the problem: no sound when FX is on; bypass works & LED works.
(3) Steps that you have taken to try to resolve the issue: checked all solder joints, checked for bridges, doublechecked component position, measured wiring for continuity, created an audio probe and got signal up to C23/R21 (drops from these components on in the signal BUT I get signal on the MEAT and RUMP potentiometer)
Checked this cap and resistor: they seem to be the right value and measured correctly as well, so this is strange to me.
(4) List any substitutions you used for parts/values: used parts from the Musikding (German) kit
I have been troubleshooting this baby a bit too long for a few days on end so am looking for some extra eyes. I have learned a tremendous deal from this so far (my previous kits were BYOC clones years ago, so I have finally been learning to read schematics through this troubleshooting process and understand more what's going on under the hood!)
I might have, during the troubleshooting process, reversed the small IC for one test. Could this have damaged it? Voltages on it seem fine. If the IC is damaged; would all pins stop working or just 1 or 2?
I have also been doubting the positioning/orientation of the potentiometers as they are onboard ones; though the 1-pin is in the square hole so that should be correct iirc?
I have added some photos for inspection here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1pRvwyFOShJH9QqT-WPtGUkAMTbPz-ImH
Thanks beforehand for anyone willing to take a look!
Kind regards
Matthias
