I checked R17 and I had a 10k instead of a 10 ohm resister. Like I said Iam a noob at all this but still learning. Rechecked the ic and here is what it's reading now
Pin1 = 6.46
Pin2 = 5.10
Pin3 = .640
Pin4 = 0.00
Pin5 = 3.45
Pin6 = 3.33
Pin7 = 6.48
Pin8 = 8.88

I don't know where to get the proper voltages for the pcb if someone had that info that would be great. Only getting audio through pin3 when I probe. When I have a guitar plugged in only getting splatty gated fuzz sound only when I hit the strings hard. Bypass mode works great

alright i tested the ic and the voltage from the power supply. from the power supply its 9.28 then D6 = 9.25 to 9.02 then R17 = 9.02 to 1.112 and everything else behind it is 1.112. Iam pretty sure it should stay a steady 9.0 volts all the way to pin 8 on the ic so i think R17 is the culprit. here are the voltages to the ic.
pin1=.770
pin2=.240
pin3=.199
pin4=0.00
pin5=.601
pin6=.581
pin7=.796
pin8=1.112

when the board is powered on the LED is not quite as bright as it should be and as i test the ic voltages pins 15678 the LED shorts out. when i test pin 2 the LED stays the same but the 3mm led's that i used for clipping light up. i will change R17 and see if that is the problem. wish me luck

For some reason the forum won't let me post pics. It says that my file is too large. I will try on my computer and no Iam not getting any sound out of the ic and yes it is placed in correctly.

Ok so I built an audio probe and it works great. I probed both input and output and traced audio back to both transistors. They are placed in the right direction but the audio stops with both transistors. The transistors are 2n5088 and a 89. Should I switch them around or change them out completely? Any suggestions? Iam new at building so please excuse the inexperience. Thanks

Ok so I built the 2014 green bean and it's currently not working when engaged. Iam getting output when turned off and the led comes on when turned on but no output. The only sound I get out it is when I hit the guitar stings real hard making a quick buzz sound then quickly fading away. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks

So I did some debugging research and I found the culprit!!! Just some bad solders and a tiny scrap piece of wire that shorted out the pcb. Cleaned everything up and is working great now. Thanks for everyone's response

I've tried to post pics but it's telling me the attachment is to large. Geese

Ok just built moodring and all I get is a constant loud buzz. I first wired it up in buffered mode and straight buzz sound then rewired to true bypass and same problem. When I switch the pedal off in true bypass it's the same buzz although it should be the straight guitar signal. All the leds are responding to the strum of my guitar but no sweet reverb just loud buzz sound. Please any help would be great thanks

Ok so I have a green bean 2014 model and Iam having trouble wiring it up. I have looked at the original overview of the project and it does not have a wiring diagram. Iam new to pedal building so any help would be great thanks.
