Hi,

I am having issues with these modules i bought these to smooth out the rawness of my jams but the last few days my sound has been faint my external mixer is a Behringer Xenyx 802s, first the Stereo Strip started playing up only had it a few days i took it out of my case checked the ribbon cable had been inserted correctly and it was tried a different power bus port in my rack and reinstalled still nothing then the STMIX red led lights weren’t responding from the L/R main output on the bottom right like it wasn’t getting a signal, then the Output Bus line level lights weren’t even lighting up again i took these modules out inspected them and could not see nothing wrong with them at all as two of the modules have shrouded connections can’t remember which ones I know one of them hasn’t got a shrouded connection at the back of the module but i lined the red stripe with the -12v white stripe so i don’t understand what i am doing wrong with my patches and the signals. But seems my signal is being choked off somewhere between these three modules

Maybe I’ve ran before i walked and admit GAS has bite me bad with this stuff, just feel deflated i have created nothing for the last 3 days just cannot figure it out so any assistance would be welcome thank you

Don't feel deflated. It's going to happen.
We've all dinged modules along the way, some that we loved.
There are complexities in the craft and The Red Stripe Lesson is a harsh one.

Seems like you are saying you connected everything correctly you believe?

I guess check patch cables are worting
Maybe try each of them one at a time (remove the others from the case) to see if you can narrow it down to one modile causing the issue.

I'd post also on modwiggler also, people can be quite helpful. Add photos if you can and details on your case / power supply etc

Hi Traxam,

Yes i believe i have connected the ribbon cable correctly at the module end, i looked at the back of the Stereo Strip and the connector on the right side distinctively read -12v the a small vertical white line so i lined up the red stripe to that, i have checked this and it was correct so its not that, and the other end has a shrouded connection.

But have taken your advise and registered with Modwiggler just waiting to be accepted in
Thank you
