Hi,

So in May I bought this kit from DIY Racked.
After several months of waiting on PCBs I finally got them assembled.

Not 1 of the PCBs I got calibrated +/- what the guide tells me to do.
The second PCB I got stuck at the limiter / compressor part, the AMP and Meter works.

So the guide tells me to adjust RV4 to 1.945V but I can't get it higher then 1.801V.
All the things after this doesn't turn out like it should.

I attached the guide and Schematics I got from DIY RACKED.

Hey Bernd, you might not get much response to this here.  There was some drama with Tat from DIY Racked here years ago (well before my time, so I don’t know details) and he’s still persona non grata, and as a result, threads about his projects don’t tend to get a lot of traction.

Still, I know it sucks to get stuck on a project without much help, so hopefully someone will chime in to help you.
 
Hi Bernd,

Have you contacted DIY-Racked about your issues?
Their FAQ states 'Our tech guys will help you personally'...

Most of their products are probably very close spin-offs (if not exact copies) of GDIY or IJ-Audio projects. So look for the IJ 33609 thread and see if that leads to something.

Also, tracing signal with a generator/scope should reveal where audio stops. Try to isolate the problem (eg is the main audio path working with the sidechain disconnected?)

Good luck,

Rogy
