Hello Everyone,

I am having issues troubleshooting this Stutr Build. When the effect is off I have sound from the guitar. Once I push the switch, silence. I took some photos and Have some voltage readings:
IC1:
1: 4.46     2: 4.42   3: 4.24    4: 0.01 
5: 4.24     6: 4.19     7:   4.45    8: 8.85

IC2:
1: varies   2: varies  3: varies  4: 0.00
5: varies   6:  varies  7: varies  8: varies

I re-flowed any questionable joints, no luck. I appreciate any help I could get.

Is R18 & 19 meant to be empty

according to the build doc, if you do not wish to have the speed indicator (d2) than there is no need to populate R18 and R19.

I don't think pin8 of IC2 should be varying. What voltage variance are you getting?

Upon testing again. There is no voltage to pin 8

you should have your supply voltage on pin 8. As your LFO is working apparently (varying volages on the other pins) you must have voltage there. So please check again; it should be a steady 8.something V.

Do you have an audioprobe? there's a new tutorial how to make one and you could trace the signal to where it stops.
