Title: Smoothie gives no effect
Post by: trickpony on May 11, 2012, 11:19:35 PM
Ok. So my smoothie is not giving any phase. Just same whether on or off (when ON I hear a slight decrease in bass). No change in volume and no phase. If I unplug the power I get no sound when ON as expected so I know it is going through the circuit, just no phase. 
IC1
1) 3.4
2)3.4
3)3.3
4) 0 ground
5)3.4
6)3.4
7)3.4
8) 9

IC2
1) 3.4
2)3.4
3)3.4
4) 0 ground
5)oscillating between 3-5
6)oscillating between 4-5
7)oscillating between 3-6
8) 9

The Transistors diode reading is
Gate +, Source -  0.75
Source - , Drain +  short (beep)
on both transitors

Help.
Any thoughts? Of what I should check?

Did that fix your problem, or are you still dead in the water?
