Built the Makeyouruno kit. Learned a lot. Proble m is the synth. No response from it. Ran the test code and I don't know what / how to use it. What am I looking for?
Have you any indication on it?
Here is the 3d-build page that walks you through soldering to the end:

Here is one (long winded) build video (over one hour): ** SLEW TO 1:33.24 TO SEE IT START UP**
Here is the technical page for reference:
NO: my solder points look good. I read just under 5 v on various pins. The offered testing code loads up but still no reaction?
Check that you can upload code to it successfully (as in, no compile or upload errors).
I can upload the program. My interpretation of the code is a series of LED lights on and off in various patterns? I currently get nothing. Very frustrating
Do you have any serial monitor output?
Would you post your code here (formatted and using the </> code tag)?
I thought of that and tried adding .. Serial.begin(9600); to the code and selecting Monitor in the web editor. Only a blank screen. I will try to post the code later.
Excellent start! The line you added is opening the serial port (so you can send information to the Monitor that you selected). Next you will want to add some Serial.print("I am HERE!");
statements in in key places that will tell you where the program is going, what it is doing, and maybe NOT doing.
OK thanks I will try that. That is a very good suggestion.
Feb.26. Thank you for trying to help. I did add the "stop" code. It stopped after the loop started. My circuit must be bad or some how the "Uno" I built ( I ran a "blink" sketch and it was ok). I am setting this troubled project aside. Too much tme consuming. Thanks again
Yes, take some time for other things. I hope to see you here later on.
