DIY Front panel graphics
I get panels made at PCBWAY in China; use Eagle for the layouts. PCBWAY only accepts 274x gerbers, not the x2 new format, so make sure you use the "legacy" CAM templates when making your gerbers.I then...

ah, you mentioned dirty ground before, i forgott to ask: where to get two (or more) groundsnow its clearthx!

Hey all -- just thought I'd post my own working copy of the layout in case it's helpful to anybody building this. The original layout by Minus underwent a number of changes over the course of this...

Hi there, was messing around on the bench and stumbled on the schemo below. Output goes from a cheap distortion pedal sound to reasonably good balanced modulator effects depending on what you put...

I was going to do another blog entry with before and after WAV files, but doing scope shots as well is a great idea. I'll do that too. Thanks for the suggestion.

u could also just open the wav in a audioeditor and screenshot the waveforms there, but Scopies are somehow more elegant.i understood that it is acting like a RM? can u may run a test where u feed in...

i understood that it is acting like a RM? cheers, gabi Hi Gabi: Not quite; I am saying that to my ears it can, sometimes, sound a bit like an RM . I don't think this circuit could ever truly be an...

dont worry about it is a RM or not 8) it would just be nice to see how it is behaving

[quote="PHOBoS"] For the "Son of Zener" I'd buffer the input connected to the transformer or you could buffer both for good measure.Resistance across the primary side of the transformer is only about...

Interesting circuit. I've played around with it in LTSpice, and it seems to behave like a cross between a ring mod and a logic gate. Basically the diodes, being zeners, can conduct in both directions,...

Got round to breadboarding this. Very good sounds from such a simple circuit. I've not used a transformer, and have added opamp buffers and an additional moderator input- which acts like a sort of VCA....

He's high on life! :twisted: I love sam though. He's the energizer bunny of the diy synth world, but also mad scientist. He's irreplaceable, his designs/tuts are life savers for beginners like me.
