    Yes that sounds correct!
    BTW I used it at a gig for the first time last night and it sounded great!

    Ciao!
    I did get mine fixed.
    I figured out that it was the IC which acts as the LFO. It’s the IC nearest the potentiometer. I wasn’t getting any oscillating voltages anywhere on the board so I supposed that this IC was broken. I bought a new one fr eBay for about £6 (€5) and soldered it in- it worked!
    While I was at it I installed a 3pdt switch to make it true bypass and have an LED indicator. I also performed the volume mod with a trim pot to make the effect volume louder.
    I now have an awesome phaser that suitable for live use!
    I hope you get yours sorted!

    Looks like I’m going to have to buy a MIDI controller when my 8 Step Program (finally) arrives!!

    By the way has anyone received one or tried one out yet?

    I’ve been considering the ‘exp thru’ problem and hace a few ideas:

    1. Have a volume pedal between the 8 step and the pedal being controlled – have the 8 Step sending out a consistent full voltage (all sliders on max?) and use the volume pedal to taper the signal down to a lower voltage.

    2. Once again have a consistent full voltage being sent out from the 8 Step and use the ‘depth’ mode on the exp pedal input to control the voltage.

    May work eh?

    I started building my own 8 step sequencer 6 months ago and got this far http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=418J0Gn6vHU when I saw that EHX was releasing the 8 Step Program – I couldn’t believe it!!! I have pre-ordered an 8 Step but still plan to finish my sequencer and house it in a MoogerFooger looking case.

    Calling the ELECTRO HARMONIX TEAM – If you are looking for any staff in the UK please give me a shout!!

    Let’s see what we can do with the 8 Step on this forum – I’m excited!! :cheese:
