I've been working for over a year now to try and keep my chorus from clipping. Right when someone out there finds a workable solution, it dies. I mean, it's breathing, I get signal through it when it's on, but no chorus. I've swapped out all three of the ICs several times, and nothing works. I have no bad solder joints or bridges that I can see. The only progress I've made is that the trim pot now had some effect on the signal. When I turn it all the way to the left or right, I get this really nasty sounding, buzzy, feedback, squeal. Anyobody out there know of any plausable solutions?

Maybe its a bad trim pot?

Ditto on check the trimpot.

I was reading some spec sheets on those little puppies and many (most?) have a life expectancy of around 200 turns. I don't know what the failure mode might be on that, but if you've been working on it for over a year, you might have passed the limit.
