also before i go replacing these IC’s am i going to damage them by putting them in this thing if something else is out of whack? I dont really want to buy stuff if the problem is further up the line and im just going to fry them by putting them in.

anyone? as far as I can tell, the trim pots need to be realigned and the SAD1024 chip replaced and the pedal should work again. I have read that there are a few people who can do this. Anyone know roughly how much this would cost if i supplied the SAD1024 chip? I have the chance to buy a V4 reissue for 100$ so I’m trying to weigh whether it would be better to just buy that or get mine fixed. Does the V4 sound much different than the one I have?

Yep, mentioned that in the first post

” I have even checked the SAD0124 and I am getting 13.9v on pins 5,7,9,11. 14.5v on pins 8, 10. 3.75v on pins 2 15, 4.16v on pin 12 and 4.49 on pin 6.”

sound goes in on pins 2 and 15, and no sound coming out on 12 and 6 even tho it shows there is some sort of voltage there.

also getting 14.5 – 14.9 volts at random places throughout the board. basically anywhere after the first transistor.

Thanks for your help and quick replies by the way. I soooo want this thing to work again.

which pins would those be?
