    chaining blends

    to explain. blend 1 and two are both "mini blends. IN goes to signal in (from jack tip and effect in) the lines coming out of blends are from the blend circuit, via a 10uk cap and the drain from jfet (j201). Effect 1 is a voice changer.... effect 2 is a echo/delay. In is signal in out is...

    chaining blends

    oh ok. I thought this is how i was meant to draw this, I am learning. Is it that incorrect?

    chaining blends

    "chaining blends" is that correct. I would like to be able to blends between modules. I am used to making the mini blend circuit (I tend to always have these components in). I have drawn a block diagram I would like to know if this is correct please? or alternative approaches? Thanks...

    Portable Amp

    haaaa, nah, disabled and unable to drive. However I did used to be in a band where we's just break metal objects whilst they were connected to piezo's, distortion pedals and amps. It was fun.But we all have bad ears now.

    Portable Amp

    hahahhahaa.... i'm one of them ex guitar as noisy as possible people.... but then always had synths as well so had the balance of hearing their richness of clarity. That is the comparison I wanted yes. Thank you for your time here. I will get looking at circuits.

    Portable Amp

    Is there any sound quality difference between the choke method or I.C method?

    Portable Amp

    Thanks. This is very helpful. I would like to have the speaker in the same unit as the synth. 8 inches is doable, obviously smaller the better but I defo want the sub sounds. I have just made a bass boost circuit (maybe this is what a low pass filter is). As was intending this to drive a...

    Buffer Cicuit

    I just love the Lm317 variable voltage regulators. Someone here will know more than me and come up with a simpler solution but I use em just cox I love em everywhere i can. Loads of good resources online, type Lm317 calculator and you'll get an option fr your needs

    Portable Amp

    Hi again. I'm looking for some pointers please. I'm making mini synths off of mfos. I am wanting to have them all to be portable and have an amp and speaker in them. However I know very little about amps and speakers. What kind of thing am I looking for in amp circuits? How do i know how good...

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    will do cheers! I've become to realise just engaging in any way with any part of electronics is all part of learning.

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    Hi Steve. I will be relying you to mostly figure this out, just wanted to say really happy to just build a fresh circuit that's tried and tested instead. Might be frustrating as the schem isn't right, save a lot of work

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    ok so got given a leslie speaker at same time so thought maybe this is from a hammond?

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    hey Steve, thanks. first ever attempt at drawing a schem from a circuit. :) Yes points "F" connect. Is there a more standard way of annotating this? 1/10 is actually 11, doh, if you mean the point closest to Q5?

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    Made this schematic today, i'm sure there'll be mistakes. 1-4 connection nodes lead to the tank. 5-10 break out the other side of the board. Not really sure how to work out which does what if you don't mind helping?

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    Cheers Steve. That helps loads. I'll firstly try and draw up a schematic and get a component list together.

    accutronics geneva reverb tank and reverb amp.

    Hi all I got given a reverb tank with an attached reverb amp and I would like to see if I can make it work and was hoping you guys could help. The reverb tank reads: accutronics, geneva, ILL, pat 2982819 3106610, made in USA. The reverb amp has got RA-1C written on it. I couldn't find out...

    ribbon controller

    After reading around It seems that the Paia schem doesn't work. I'll keep searching. Could I not just replace a pot in a 555 PWM with a ribbon? would be a single tone, the noise toaster has a gate so i woldn't have to think about that.

    ribbon controller

    Cheers. Yes that looks accessible to me, I will begin ordering parts. Can I use VHS (blank) for this, I've seen that mentioned elsewhere. I love that it can be two tones. I know nothing about MIDI but I keep seeing it mentioned. If I understand this schem It should just connect straight into...

    ribbon controller

    Hi all, been a while. I have been busy going through Make: Analogue Synths. I have just finished my Noise Toaster. I am wanting to make a ribbon controller for the external vco input but I can't seem to find build instructions or a schematic, has anyone got a good link for me please? Best...
