film capacitors:
Snap them in. Don’t mind their polarity.
C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C8, C9, C10
vactrols:
Match the short leg of the vactrol with the squared solder pad on the PCB.
tip: it’s easier to bend at 90° degree all the four legs before trying to fit the vactrol in place.
U1, U2, U3, U4, U5, U6, U7, U8
ok, flip the board. we are almost done
jack sockets:
Wait to solder them: just place all of them in the right place and move to the next step.
J1, J2, J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J8, J9, J10, J11, J12, J13, J14, J15, J16, J17, J18, J19,
J20, J21, J22, J23, J24
LEDs:
Short leg goes into the square pin. Don’t solder them yet
