Ok, After a long time,  tried different things, verified all components and etc, I got around getting the Bias on the compander to 4.5v and still no repeats. I get dry signal, and oscilation when adjusting the pots but no repeats whatsoever.

I`m out of ideas, unless anyone else has anything to help this poor soul to get this ZEUS Delay working :-)

Thanks Grind. I`ll give it a go tonight and report back.

Anyone has any insights? Little bump for my non-working Delay! :-)

OK,
BBDs are BL3208B , clock is BL3102 and Compander is NE570N. The instructions say to omit D3 with these BBD/Clock set. Is it to leave it empty or jumper it?I double checked the jumpers and they`re correct for these as well.

Here`re all the voltages:

Compander:
1-1.90
2-1.84
3-1.84
4-0
5-1.87
6-1.82
7-3.09
8-1.85
9-1.85
10-4,91
11-4.91
12-1.86
13-9.44
14-1.84
15-1.84
16-0.98

Bias Trimpots (20k) half-way
IC3
1-0
2-4.5
3-3.38
4-3.38
5-0

7-3.56
8-8.45

IC4
1-0
2-4.51
3-3.18

TL062 - Varying as it should for LFO

Anything look weird?

Thanks a lot for the help. I really want to make this work! :-) It`s my hardest build in 3 years!

All, I think I need some help here. I`m building an Aquaboy Deluxe and finished it up today. Starting calibration, I tested the compander and it works fine, I get signal on pin 7, get signal in Q2 and finally on Pin7 of IC3 (BBD getting signal). When I probe pin 3 of IC3 I get a whine from the Clock and as I tweak the trimmer it only changes the pitch of the whine until the point it stops and dry signal comes through but no repeats. Same happens with BIAS1 from IC3, I get dry signal out of PIN3 but no repeats. I read the other issues posted and my readings seems to be fine on the ICs, but I`m not getting repeats, only Whine and dry signal. Any idea of what could be happening here? I`m sing 2 BL3208B BBD with 3102 clock.

Thanks
