[sdiy] x0xb0x/303 knob problem

[Fiercefish]

Sorted it now, it was a diode causing the problem <ahem, the wrong way round>

Cheers

  I had a problem with my decay not working when I assembled mine.  It was shorting out between the decks.  For some reason, she used a double deck pot on the decay even though the second deck doesn't do anything.  It drove me crazy until I figured it out.  I found the problem when I discovered that if I just stuck a resistor where the pot went, everything worked fine.  So, I clipped off the pins for the second deck, resoldered the pot in and now everything is fine.  Later!

  I have just finished building my x0xb0x but the accent knob and decay knob do not do anything, and the env mod knob does not behave correctly, increasing it closes the filter. I have checked orientation of components and everything is as should be, any ideas?

   

  FWIW most of the components are the same as a 303 and indeed a lot of the designators are the same, so any 303 experts I would be greatful of your input. Thanks!
