I'm a total newb to the DIY world and managed to put together drips V2 LA2A in about a day and a half including rolling my own case. I'm pretty sure i did everything correctly as i took my time and triple checked everything and I didn't blow anything up on the first power up. After I installed the tubes and T4 I pumped in some audio and the unit passes audio. The issue i'm having is that when i turn the gain reduction fully clockwise the signal cuts out completly. Also as i turn the pot clockwise the volume decreases slightly but it doesn't sound like its compressing. The gain pot works like it should. I wouldn't know how to tell if the Limit/Compress swith is doing anything. Also the VU meter isn't doing anything. I zeroed it out. When i flip the meter switch the needle slams hard left. When i flip the switch it goes back to zero. The meter I have is the Sifam AL29WF.
Anybody have any ideas on my issues?
