I would need help with this module, please.
The module doesn't play any sound when in both pre and XLR mode.

V values match what is reported here: https://www.soundskulptor.com/forum/index.php?topic=25.0

I checked the tension, and I measured 16V.
Also,  I followed this thread too and around diod D2 I measure -15V / 7V (it goes 7V / -15V when I select XLR) https://www.soundskulptor.com/forum/index.php?topic=362.0
I checked all the solder joints around what is suggested, but the value around D2 measured doesn't change at all.

Thank you

Do you get a sound in bypass?
You must try to follow the signal on TP1, TP3, TP4, TP2, as described here.
It will tell you where the signal stops.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion.

I get a sound in bypass if it is connected to the MP573; nothing gets through otherwise.
On TP1, I get 0VAC. The board is REV2.3B, and the C8 is oriented as in the picture (negative facing the back of the launchbox)

Check the value and solder joints of R1...R4, C4, C5, U1, RLY1.
Check the direction of U1, RLY1.
Try swapping U1 with one that you are sure of.
