CGS65 Tube VCA - need help troubleshooting

[hottlungs]

I am supplying power from a Synthesizers.com QPS1 Power supply(+15, Gnd, -15). When power is supplied to module, no module in system will produce an output (including the Tube VCA). Both LED's light but I am unable to test the circuit further or calibrate. When module is removed from the power supply, the other modules in the system function normally. I have questions about the ferrite bead I selected(Having 4 legs, large size compared to the smaller axial ferrite beads i've seen online) and also the value of the 330k resistor(my local electronics supply only had 331k 1%)

I am not new to electronic projects or a soldering iron but I do have a very unsuccessful background in troubleshooting them if they don't work. I have triple checked the back of the pcb to make sure that there are no shorts. I also triple checked the wiring of the pots and jacks. Does anyone have any advice?

I replaced the tube and double checked the component values. LED's light, but again no sound from any module. I'm wondering if i should try replacing the ferrite beads with 10r resistors.

You are missing a link, 2nd picture down, just below the 100k, to the right of the 'SN' hole. This link provides -V to the TL072.

One of the first things to do when debugging a circuit is to check all the chips are getting power on their power pins.

I use 10 Ohm rather than ferrite so that if there is something wrong the 10 Ohm resistors start to smoke, it is a good way to find out.

Is this the link?

low and behold... the missing link. consider this thread troubleshot.
