Instructions for trimming
the -6V and null trimpots:
No cables in the module. No inputs, no outputs. Use the test points on the board.
1) The grounded test pad is over by the lower screw hole on the left-hand side of the PCB.
2) Adjust -6V trimpot until the test point "-6V" reads -6.00V. This test point is down by the LM337. Once you set this, for fuck's sake leave that trimpot alone!
3) Measure the test point labelled "-". This incorrectly corresponds to the jack labelled 'mix +' on the front panel. It should read somewhere between 55 and 110mV, give or take. The null trimpot won't effect this measurement, so just note the voltage. It may bounce around a bit. Just... ballpark it.
4) Measure the test point labelled "+". The null trimpot will effect this voltage so you now have two choices:
4a) Recall the voltage from Step 6 and adjust the null trim until the voltage at TP "+" reads the inverse.
4b) Forget Step 6 and adjust the null trim until the voltage at TP "+" is ~0.00V.
5) You're done with the mixer.
PCB v1.2 - note reversed power regulators & resistor lead jumper in bottom left corner. Not necessary on v1.4 PCBs:
Method for connecting the audio input pots - use the same technique for dual-ganged pots with lugs if you're going that route:
Here is a photo guide for the surface-mount section on v1.4 boards:
Here is the pinout diagram for the headers, if you're wiring them up the old-fashioned way:
