Accent steps and accent pot have absolutely no influence on the sound.
I always thought the 4011 in accent section was to blame, but just replaced that by the part from mouser BOM and no improvement.
Voltages on the 4011 are fine. It's probably something simple but I'm just not seeing it (and not understanding the accent circuitry enough)
I'd love to get some assistance with this. I have access to an oscilloscope if needed.
edit: fixed
FIXED! Accent not working

check for proper orientation and bad solder joints or just try to replace them.

thanks for the help.
Well, I had tested all the transistors and they were all fine.. I found the mistake, it was very silly: swapped R122 3.3k instead of 33k
Dunno how that mistake has happened, as I sorted everything before... Oh well, glad it's fixed. Took me way to long.. checking the chip and transistors first, and also verified some resistors, but never checked R122 :stupid:
