Hey  jkokura, thanks for the reply. i know i screwed something up but i cannot find hte problem even after checking and rechecking over and over. maybe if you could get me a hint on where to look for the problem i can locate it. mods: i added a true bypass switch/wiring and i wired the led from the switch rather than using the board (could that be the problem? i cannot see it). here are the values i am getting on the ics using a battery (actualy measuring 8.36v):
ic1-1: 4.21v
ic1-8: 8.61v
ic2-1: 4.27v
ic2-8: 14.76v
ic3-1: 8.61v
ic3-8: 8.60v
i cannot upload pics due to file size. i'll try to reduce the resolution and upload them in a different post.
hope this helps. let me know if you have any hint. thanks!!!

Hi all,
New to this forum. I just finished building the sunking and I am having some issues. First of all, the tone control appears to do nothing. rolling the pot does not have any effect in the sound. i looked at the board over and over and measured all components and everything seems to be ok. i am lost here. any idea where the problem could be (the pot works fine).
the other thing I noticed is that when I kick the switch on, i takes a little time for the pedal to kick in (a little delay with no sound). I am wondering if the two problems are related. any idea????? help!!!
thanks!
