Help with Soda Meiser/VFM chaos mode.

Post by nieh »

Rehousing mine and I want to add a chaos mode switch. Mine has a really old pcb and I don't know which cap to remove. Please help me figure out which one.

What are those wires that aren't hooked up to anything?

It's the cap that goes from the collector to base of the transistor on the left. I'm not sure which one it is in that picture, though. I can't really follow the traces...

They're for noise mode. when connected they bypass the 2.2m resistor they were connected and wrapped inside with the pcb.
