There used to be a Russian company that sold iic+, dual rectifier and mkiv pcbs & chassis. I built their kit years ago.
Maybe check sloclone. There's a fair few iic+ preamp pcbs out there
Open it up and check the ribbon cables. Mine had this issue and the one going from the tx3 to the main board has an intermittent connecting.
Replacing it solved it.
Same for your mode problem
have you switched the mini switches?
I think LD2 drive I had to have the switch on to get a good reading.
Another thing to check is the pot itself. Maybe that has failed. I had to replace the one for mids on mine.
Hi guys ld2 red on my triaxis passes barely any signal. It's just a background hiss and an extremely quiet clean guitar signal passes.
Would i be correct in thinking LDR7 could be to blame?
They're coloured cables but it seems the cable is fine it was one of the ics on tx3a.
Ld2 green & yellow are working fine but red just has a really weak clean signal
edit: Actually i powered it up and everything still sounds way off. And lead 2 red has no signal now.
Edit2 : swapped IC5 and its all ok now calibrated gain. Also I can confirm that LDR 27/28 are opposite on the board on my V1 than the diagram on here.
So now to figure out why ld2 red isnt...
Right i've made a little progress here.
Swapped the MC14042 for treble and was able to calibrate that & Gain High.
Gain low however is proving very tricky.
With gain set to 0 as if setting gain high i can get a solid reading and it adjusts accordingly. However with it on 10 as it should be I...
Just had another look while the wife goes out.
on the outside of ldr 27 & 28 i'm getting no reading at all.
Same with Low Gain (unless i switch gain to 0 but obviously that wont calibrate right)
Both just read out of limits.
Other than this i've managed to get everything set.
Tomorrow i'll...
Hi Luca.
I'm probably not going to get a chance to look at this again until late Saturday /Sunday.
But when I do I will lift the ldrs in question to fully confirm. For further info mine is a very early unit with serial number #175 from 91/92 (cant remember the exact year but it is written...
I made a little progress with this.
Replaced LDR 21 and now the tonestack functions and i have been able to set it to 33k.
However going through the other steps I am struggling with the treble Bass and gain
It seems that when measuring for treble low on the outside legs of LDR 27 & 28 I get...
Thanks. Just checked the bass against your chart and it follows pretty closely up until 5.5 it still increments but tiny amounts and ends at 52.2k
Getting readings now on all of them other than either of the mid ICs.
Gonna guess the chips are dead.
