Re: [Doepfer_a100] A-180.1 - replacing the solder bridge

2017-05-27 by Jacco Ville

Hi Nick,

Within the modular world it's not an luxury to have a multimeter. 
In that case solving the routing of the pcb is a breeze. 

I soldered one of my A180-2s and used a black marker between the 4 and 5th jack. 

Maybe Dieter has the right answer to your pcb thing. 

Cheers 

Jacco
