I Just Bought another arachnid platform board after a couple of years, it came **without** the FV-1 my original two had pre soldered to the board. I take it from the threads, this isn't a new development. What gives??
That was a paid optional extra to the arachnid PCB. With the international IC shortage FV-1s became ridiculously difficult to find so it wasn’t worthwhile for PedalPCB to offer it.
Lots of vendors like @Cabintech often have them in stock and there’s loads of info on this forum and on the web about soldering SMD components.
