Corruptor not Corrupting

[Jamforthelamb]

Hey All,
Recently built up a Corruptor PCB from Parasit, and I get a nice nasty cmos fuzz, but no ring mod'ing (if that's a word). The frequency pot and gate trim have no effect on the sound. I rechecked all my orientations (caps and diodes), checked my values, and reflowed all my soldering. I used a 4069UBE and a 4070BE from Tayda for the ICs. I've tried multiple 4069's with no change. Here's the
Schematic:


My voltages:

Source voltage: 9.4

IC 1 (4069UBE)
1: 6.4
2: 0.15
3: 3.99
4: 4.09
5: 4.17
6: 4.19
7: 0.00
8: 9.16
9: 0.07
10: 0.09
11: 8.38
12: 9.07
13: 0.00
14: 9.18

IC 2 (4070BE)
1: 0.00
2: 0.00
3: 0.00
4: 9.19
5: 0.15
6: 8.33
7: 0.00
8: 0.00
9: 0.00
10: 0.00
11: 0.00
12: 0.00
13: 0.00
14: 9.19

I've been in contact with Fredrik and here are his 4069 voltages from his build. Pin 1 and 2 are different then mine, but not sure if that matters:

01: 1,3
02: 8,37
03: 4,3
04: 1,3
05: 4,1
06: 4,1
07: 0
08: 8,39
09: 0,2
10: 0,2
11: 7,87
12: 8,38
13: 0
14: 8,41

Here's some build photos. One hole is open as Fredrik had me try lifting a diode to see if that made a difference, which it didn't.




You guys are my last hope before I just give up on this board. I see no reason why it shouldn't be working, but I need some new eyes as mine are getting tired =P.
Thanks

I can not read the pin-numbers on that JPG.

Is the trim-pot even connected? If I squint the small image, I think I am seeing 9V where trim-pot has to be pulling-down to zero.

Can not tell if your joints are good, I can't see the leads for the blobs. I would beat half (all) that solder off, and re-solder so thin and fine you can *see* the leads and how the solder wets them.

The right-most panel-pot lead is clearly not "wetted" at the blob surface. Maybe there's a real connection inside; but I have seen similar joints "work" then fail, just light mechanical contact without any metal-joining.

And for some reason, trimpot legs seem to be exceptionally likely to be tarnished, refuse to take solder. Might sandpaper and pre-tin them.

Hello!
Trim leg 3 does indeed have continuity with pin 13 of the 4069. The soldering is much better then what the photo indicates. I solder better then I take photos =p. Here's a bigger photo of the schemo:

Pins 4 and 1 should be the same voltage since they are wired together. Resolder there. Or possibly replace the chip

Edit- and if that works, you must try my blend mod described in reply #77 of his original thread.  Very simple. One 100k resistor and one 100kb pot. To dial back the RM so there is just a touch of it in the fuzz is a great option. Adds these little weird artifacts but doesnt sound like ring modulation very much at some settings

Cool man! Thanks for the tip. I'll definitely have to try that once I get this work again!
