[Solved]Atomic fail!

Post by diplowave »

Hi x0xer's, I built myself a new x0x and is fully functional. :)

I have assembled a kit atomic mod2. I tested all the components before assembly. Unless the IC's because they are printed AM1, AM2 and other: AM = Atomic Mod. :?

But this x0x works fine without atomic mod kit. But doesn't work with it!

All notes played without accents are silent.. We hear only the notes played with an accent. The accent knob reacts as volume knob. It's a real disaster!
The guy who sold me it on ebay, doesn't respond to emails ...
I got to separate my x0x of this kit and I test like this now:

But I don't understand the problem.


I know someone who has assembled the same additional kit and it has exactly the same problems ... This is probably not a coincidence... An idea to help us maybe?

This is some third party kit, nothing I've ever seen before. You really need to track down whoever made it, you're not going to find much help here.

OK thanks Altitude.
I suspected that person could help us. :( But i told myself, you never know. :D
No new seller ... :?
We managed all alone...

Perhaps it may be useful to other x0xerz someday. To solve the problem of accent must be put 2 jumper wire here:

Mine, also had the square wave that not worked because my PCB is faulty, I added a jumper wire below this resistance:

He even has a mollex upside down in the assembly manual... :shock:
Excuse me for my grammatical errors, i speak little English.
