What could be wrong?

You could always use an adjustable resistor and set Vout by measuring Vout and tweaking R2 to suit - I assume.
Thanks @Rich , I'll try with different resistances and I would like to know more about the loading effect so that I don't face any problem while connecting more controls to EZ-B...
@pranav .... this thread https://synthiam.com/Community/Questions/1775 R2D2 gave information for a LM317 and fixed voltages! I know the regulator is different but this might help... a bit
@irobot58 , that is really very useful information... But the only problem is LM317 is limited to 1.5A... If I don't find a way for LM338, I'll try to use an LM317 for powering EZ-B and take external power for all other peripherals.. I would like to know if that can work out...
Can we send you an lm1084 to make this easier?
Would you really do that? I will be very happy with it... blush blush blush
Are you confident to desolde to remove the old one? It's not a very easy task - at least for me! I always screw it up
Or would you prefer to send it to us?
If you are confident to do the work yourself - i'll have Geoff send you a lm1084 in an envelope today
@DJ , as I am limited by time... I'll try to desolde it..
