Fastforward a week or so, and now when I turn the selector knob through all 8 modes, the last four modes are just the first four modes repeated again. Mode 5 is the same shimmer reverb as mode 1, mode 6 is the modulated verb from mode 2 again, and so on. So I no longer have access to those last four modes somehow.
Not a terrible issue even if I can’t resolve it, as my favorite of the bunch is the modulated reverb which still works great. But I can’t for the life of me figure out why they would have worked before and now they’re replications of the first four modes.
Is my FV-1 soldering to blame here? You can see there’s more solder than necessary perhaps, and some of it is flaring off the legs, maybe some of my joints aren’t good? The other thing that crossed my mind is maybe a glitch/error in the EEPROM chip, such that those last four algorithms are now copies of the first four. No idea where to begin trouble shooting this as I’m very much an FV-1 noob. Any insight would be much appreciated.
