Yes, they are both different types of sockets. The one I soldered fits chips like the as3340 and tl072, etc… The Arduino doesn’t fit in this socket. The Arduino pins are more square and the soldered socket has round holes. The second socket that I got today that @fredrik recommended will fit perfectly on top of the soldered socket. The Arduino fits perfectly in this new socket too. So I can push all of the sockets together in that photo I posted and get my Arduino on the board that way. I just don’t know if by having the second socket in the middle will cause any signal issues. If this is an issue then I will need to desolder the one I initially soldered and replace it with the new socket I got today. I am just trying to avoid desoldering because I really messed up my LFO board by desoldering a socket I misplaced. I don’t even know if my LFO will work now so I don’t want to have that happen to this board too.
