Music Tech DIY • Re: Frequency Central General Build Thread

The Silent Disco and Stasis Leak were my first DIY eurorack projects so I’m willing to accept responsibility for my own lack of experience being the cause of my problems. But I’m having issues with both of these units. One mistake on Stasis Leak was my own; I swapped the two transistor’s positions. Once I fixed that, it worked, but now I’m not seeing the LED light up and the tap tempo button doesn’t seem to work. There’s also a bit of digital noise in my unit as mentioned by others. With my Silent Disco build, it has a nasty digital whine on the headphone jacks that stays the same regardless of the audio level set by the potentiometer. The line outs sound clean, but it’s sounds like the inputs aren’t evenly matched (right is far lower?), but I need to do further testing to confirm that.

Here’s a video of the digital whine: https://photos.app.goo.gl/QEkyvw6T4ihCpG8o6
I also wonder if it’s due to my lack of experience soldering the SMD resistors. And should I clean with acetone after soldering?
