Hi guys.

i built this waveshaper but its not working, its only giving me inverted Saw at the Tri output, because i dont get a Tri i'm not getting the Sine.
it looks very simple but where i did wrong?
what i need to check?

im using the Odyssey vco Saw as a my source.

Where did you find the mixer layout for the Saw2tri-sine_K.pdf? I've been all over the Bergfotron site and can't locate it. I'd like to see the PCB layout to see what's going on... thanks....


The link is from his site Wink

Hi Marv

I got an answer from Bergfotron.
Quote:
You need to make sure that the input signal has the correct amplitude and DC-offset. Otherwise you will not get the correct waveforms.
The sawtooth should be 10 volts peak to peak and have no DC offset (IIRC).


Now I need to find a way to do it Confused

Hi...

I got it working!
Amplified the signal of the ody saw and it's working great Smile
I used Andy suggestion from page 8 on the ody vco thread.

Cheers Smile

XLNT news! Glad to hear you got it working. Your decoding of the resistors looked right and assuming all the other components were also correct I figured it had to be something else. Bergfotron pointing you in the right direction makes perfect sense.... who else could know better. Enjoy.
