Re: [vintagesynthrepair] Re: Arp Avatar -- no sound.

thanks. I just noticed it only makes output throught the External Audio Input on the back of the unit. The output seems to include the routed signal except for the ADSR and VCF. I hope this is a clue -- I am thinking that one of the clips was pulled off one of the boards and put back in reverse. I am not sure if I want to test flipping them.
Thanks!
