Mailist to discuss all issues regarding the Digitech GSP-2101 Guitar FX Processor

The components involved in the by-pass path of the compressor are U8, 
Q8, R87, R88, C61, C104, R82, R113. If the problem used to be 
intermittent, it may only be a bad solder joint on one of these 
components if it isn't the component itself. The best thing to do 
would be to get the schematic in the Files section of the other 
GSP2101 Yahoo group:
http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/GSP2101/

Then with a signal generator and oscilloscope, you (or a qualified 
tech) could pinpoint the faulty component.
