in my modular i have some attenuators pots, so i decided to omit the 10K log input pot, but the problem is that i can't leave the input aux without a jack plug in, if i don't do that i dsitoy my ears and speakers
I try to solder a 10k resitor between ground and aux in but it's the same problem. For the moment i disconnect the comon of the feedback mode switch.
Would you tell me if there is an other solution to resolve this problem
without add a pot on the front panel because there is no place left.
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
Regards Fred. |
Make sure that the ccw end of the pot is grounded! - Then it should fully attenuate when in ccw position.

| The wiring diagram as provided has a feedback circuit in it. If you delete the pot you've deleted an essential part of the feedback circuit. So yes, you'll need to disconnect the wire from the center of the feedback switch, and just do your feedback outside of the module if you choose to. The feedback circuit isn't essential to the operation of the frequency shifter, but it is a nice added touch. |

Thank you, sduck. I completely missed the part about the missing pot, and concluded there must be a mis-wired pot.
So, yes, it's all clear: You *need* that pot for proper feedback operation. But you can have a nice FS entirely without feedback also. Just what sduck says.

Hi
I find a solution for not drilling an other hole pot.
i replace the two 100K lin mix pot ,by a dual 100K, and in the free place, the aux level pot.
Now the feedback mode is fully functional
Great and fat sound, Thanks Jürgen  |

hey guys, finished mine a few months back, took the extra time measuring components as well as i could and working with the xls, and seem to have come up trumps. carrier bleedthrough is for all intents and purposes, nil.
think this has new favourite module written all over it.
guess i just wanted to put a big hearty "thanks Jurgen" out there
nice one mate, thanks for your trouble, and your time, in doing this and making it available  |

a few questions..... |
 |
|
Hi,
I'm currently finishing my FS-1A build. I'm going to put it in a 19" enclosure, and add a few extra connectors and goodies.
I have a few questions:
1. What is the function of the dual LED/two LEDs marked "F_LED"? Is it the same dual LED Jürgen referred to as "Rate"? Hard to place them without knowing their purpose.
2. I want to make the quadrature triangle signals available at the front panel like lexvortex mentioned in a previous post. Can I do that by simply connecting jacks to the SigSin and SigCos outputs on board 1?
3. Same question for the SumOut and Diff Out: Can i just connect a jack in parallel to the rest of the stuff?
4. I want to add external input jacks for the buffer inputs. I've been thinking about adding a pot to be able to mix between the external input jack and the dry/wet pot. Would that make sense? I guess I would have to use shielded wire for the connection?
That's all I can think of at the moment. The front panel is going to be stuffed!!  _________________ best regards,
Bob |

Hi
I'm finishing to populate the boards, and I'm not sure about the 2SA733's position. Should I use the "real" pcb silkscreen, or this document:
http://www.jhaible.de/fs1a/fs1a_overlay_main_board.pdf
On my pcb the trannies should be in the opposite side as on the pdf.
Thanks a lot for your help. |

The PCB silkscreen is right. (The emitters, pins 1, are connected together.)

Yes. But only if you have big enough heat sinks.
The location of the power regulators is - admittedly - a bit unfortunate to attach good heat sinks to them, though. But if you find a goot thermal + mechanical solution for getting the heatt off the voltage regulators, it will work.
