OK I'm making two sets of OP Amps for an input to a ADC and output from an DAC. I dont think I've over soldered them and i checked it many times before I powered them. The design I've used is the recomended from the datashhets of the ADC and the DAC, but they are getting extreamly hot. I rewired and tested a few of the seperate amp with a simple closed loop gain circuit and some of them have burnt out 
. I tryed simulating the design in multisim but its giving me errors. Take a look at my design, I'm not sure what I've done wrong 🙁 .

Chips heating up is usually a sign of the power supply being connected backwards or otherwise incorrectly.
The filter section (DAC part) is wired incorrectly. Take a closer look at Fig.7 in the DS and compare with what you have.
ADC is also wrong: You need a buffer/follower (1st OP), then an inverter (2nd OP), and both outputs of the buffer and the inverter feed their corresponding filter section (3rd and 4th OP), see DS Fig.44.
And, quite important: You must not leave opamps unconnected. Wire them as followers (OUT to -IN) and connect the input (+IN) to GND. Otherwise the might oscillate.
Do you have adequate power supply bypassing right at the chip?

I see what you mean. I don't know what I had drawn, must have got really mixed up somewhere. Also, would those incorrections have caused permanant dammage to the packages? The power supply i used was +/-12V connected correctly. I used a 25W iron with a 1mm tip, didnt take too long to solder, but for a few pins I had to apply about 6 seconds of heat to get the packages held down. I dont think that could have caused problems though.
I assume you have the 4134 in the DIP14 package. Damage from soldering is rather unlikely (DS says 300°C for 10sec), but one cannot know if the chips got damaged by the heatup during operation... so better use new chips for the next round.

I used the SOIC-14 surface mount chips I soldered on to a DIP adaptor, I have a couple spare so I'll try again.
