There are only a couple of stages the dry signal passes through before the output. Turn the MIX all the way down, and then audio probe the outputs of 1) input buffer 2) pins 1 and 7 of the dual op-amp (TL072, or whatever you used). This should clue you into where the signal is dropping.

Just v1 = blue v2 = red, the v2 fixed 2 ground connections that you have to jumper. Otherwise identical.

The red one I built has the modulation add on (copied with a few changes from Sabros design)

Just came across this template in my files. Print at 300DPI to get the right dimensions.

You should do that with all your orders from Banzai. They owe me 60 euro in parts (backordered) since 2010

I think I get you now. You're saying that what's in the store isn't necessarily in stock, right? That's sucks dude.
I thought you were trying to say that what they have in their warehouse isn't necessarily visible online, lol. Trying to tell me that they might have the 24mm pcb pots but it doesn't show up online.

Hey I live in the city they are located, should I go there and give them some polish concrete shoes for you? :mrgreen:

DIY board mount pots FTW!
