Hi Volker, thx for your answer.
The Neon lamp is shining, does this mean it works normally?
I'm gonna see if I have a spare neon lamp in my stock and replace it.

I'll try to find mistakes in my build, i ...

The bypass is fine, i measured it and i can hear it too because de "gain" control works fine on both channels.
I also checked the "link" molex's as i was not sure how to wire it.

I'll double check my PCB.
thx for your answer ;)
