The cap C449 is the output signal from voice 4 to the panning and auto calibration circuitsIt should feed four ( 4 ) networks:
On Positive side of cap +        1    Goes from the output of opamp U416  ( pin 6)         2   Goes to feedback resistor for opamp R470
On negative side of cap -        2   Calibration circuit,  input resistor  R181        3   Multiplexer chip U105   (pin 3 )  on the main control board        
After repairs you can check theses nets with an ohmmeter. 
Using an electronic  solder with more flux  may be helpful.
Hope This Helps Karl
