Nope. you dont have my username. im building it for a guy called Filip in Malmö. I measured straight from the power supply. i found another one that was 500mA and it didnt seem to get as warm as before. i have a low power lcd. i think its allright. thanks for all your feedback! i have enjoyed building this kit very much! and i have learned alot but it was never to hard! great kit!

Allright. checked my power supply. its 1,5A. ill see if i can find another one. it outputs 12.26 volts. its one of those that you can adjust the voltage. will it help if i set it to 9v? does the synth need 12v if i use 6582a? the pcb gets really hot say 5cm around the heatsink area. btw, it sounds really really good! better than i had imagined!

problem solved. i realized it needed a stereo-cable. but seriously, should it be that hot? the pcb is almost to hot to touch down under.

Just finished building my sammich and it seams to work fine. But when i use polyphonic sounds one of the sids dosnt want to make any sound. =( did i miss something? do i have to assign the voices somehow? i tried switching place of the sids but its still the the right one that isnt sounding so i assume they are not dead. (6582a) also, the heatsink is very very hot. any thoughts?

allright! thank you! im checking with another multimeter now and it shows 9.15 k both ways. i dont have any ic:s installed. i guess it could be the caps loading up. the electrolytes are all the right way. well. thanks for your help! now i can get back to building! peace!

Hijacking thread: Iv just about assembled my base pcb and decided to make the 5v - gnd test. and it reads about 5k if i put the multimeter one way and about 10k if i put i the other. is this normal? iv double and tripple checked my solderings and i cant find any bad ones. i havnt soldered the voltage regulators yet. if i put it at 9v - gnd, there is no leakage. thanks
