Thanks.


Why do you want attenuators?
The companders allow a big dynamic range without level adjustment ...

Ah good to know - too bad I didn't realize this before having the panel made. Thanks.

You certainly *could* find a way to do it with the same board as the dim D and a million switches, but that would be messy.


Would you ever consider designing an expansion add-on board to incorporate a Juno chorus mode with this project?

I encourage you, or others, to experiment with this, while I'm going on to design the Flanger, Vocoder, and other new stuff. Smile

Seriously: All you need is the BBD board and a set of trimpots for VC Rate and VC depth, and a switch for (Modulation) Phase. Still, the BBDs are longer than in the Juno 6, so it may not be 100% the same. (Check if shorter BBDs are pin-compatible or not!)

I'm probably not the right person to do this but definitely interested if anyone else works on it and would like to share their work.

Hi,

In my dual Dim-D (well, dual BBD that is) module, one of the boards has some clicking sound at every cycle. When replacing the 13600 between the two boards, the clicking sound is present in the other board, which brings me to think it is a matter of the 13600.

I have tried to replace it with a 13700, but it does not work (i.e. no chorus effect) and it gets somewhat hot.

Is the 13700 a replacement for the 13600? Is there any modification needed on the board to accept the 13700?

Hi JH,

I finished the DimD and it sounds great!! My only concern is the output volume, When I put a 10Vpp standard MOTM osc into it I get a bit less than line level output, and when I put a line level input into it the output is very quiet (I would need a mic amp to bring it to the right level). I built it using the modern opamp and unbalanced output/input. I also included 100k input pots to attenuate the input because I thought the modular would have too hot a signal into the DimD but I don't seem to have a problem with the modulars level being too high even when the pots are fully open, is all this behaviour normal? What should I check for the low level output?

Thanks,
Dave

When everything is ok, the output level should be approximately the same as the input level.

If it is not, trace the signal with a scope, stage by stage, from input to output ...

I finished the DimD and audio and mono stereo switch seem to work but there is no modulation sound, presets don't do nothing, by-pass switch has no effect
After checking the usual suspects I found that on both boards I used BF245 C instead of BF245 A. Is the use of BF245 A critical and do I have to replace all BF245 C before checking elsewhere?
Thanks for your help

do you have a "signal tracer probe"?

i.e. some way to follow the audio signal starting at one end to see where your problem might be?

the unit does pass audio though? just no chorus effect? probably a silly question, BUT it is a SUBTLE effect, just want to rule out that you just aren't noticing the effect Smile it's easier to hear on pure tones than on full mixes.

I don't know about the BF245A vs C question - it is possible that the A version is required for the FET switches to work.... but someone with more EE knowledge will have to chime in.

good luck!

I haven't tried a BF245C, but I specified a BF245A for a reason: The threshold voltages are vastly different.

So I went to the shop bought some A's, had to remove 13 C's, soldered 13 A's and ...
everything went fine Smile
thanks Jurgen, next time I will follow the BOM Confused

You 're right ! Now that it's working I can tell it s a very subtle fx but I like it a lot.....

glad that fixed it!

yes it is a beautiful, subtle effect. i can't wait to put mine in a case and take it to the studio... it's been in a working state on my bench for about a month now - so busy i haven't had time to box it up Crying or Very sad

Hi JH,

When I was considering putting an input attenuator on my circuit you said that I shouldn't need it, that this unit should have a lot of headroom with the compander in the circuit (I'm paraphrasing). I'm noticing, though, that when feeding it the "high" output of my Minimoog D, with all 3 VCOs on 10, I have to back off of the final output level of my mini to about 4 to get it to not distort/be a bit noisy when feeding into my Dim-TD. Is this normal? Not sure offhand what the output level of the mini is offhand, but I'm guessing, for example, that this unit is not geared toward taking in a full 10Vp-p signal straight from a modular, so maybe the high output of the mini with all 3 VCOs cranked is a little too hot for it as well?

Hi JH. Not sure if you missed my previous post but after further investigation it appears there is a problem with my chorus. There's a slight high frequency noise of some sort, in both Dim-D and T modes. I'm going to start debugging tomorrow and in anticipation dug up the documentation and only now noticed the warning not to short pin 2 of the balanced outputs to ground. Well I wired up TRS jacks here and have many times connected TS jacks here. What damage could this have done, if any? Could it be the source of my problem? I built the 'vintage' version.

Input attenuation:
It will work with many kinds of studio / signal processing levels without level adjustment. For extremely high levels, fro msome synthesizers, just use a resitor divider or a potentiometer.

The noise you described is not normal. This thing should be quiet.
Hard to say if you have damaged anything (I haven't tested mine to destruction), but it seems quite possible.

The output stage of the "vintage" version is just that: a faithful reproduction of the vintage circuit, for those who want it exactly like the original. Personally, I would not design an output stage like this, powerful output stages with just signal inversion (and no auto-balancing). I'd go for short-circuit protected opamp outputs (my unexpensive version), or a transformer output, or an electronic transformer.
If you have damaged that output stage, replacing the power transistors and opamps and the small valued resistors should fix it. Or simply discard the vintage option and go for opamps only.

Can't say if your HF noise has its origin here, though.

JH.

Thanks JH. The more I think about it I would describe it as a distortion of the high frequencies of the signal, rather than a static noise. Going to dig around tonight.

So with the vintage set-up, is it ok to have the TRS balanced outputs and to use a TS cable there/connect to an unbalanced input elsewhere sometimes, or with this setup would I always have to have balanced cable at the output to a balanced input elsewhere?

Quoting from my web page:
"CAUTION: XLRs are not floating balanced outputs - do not connect to unbalanced inputs!"

Certainly using TRS jacks instead of XLRs cries for trouble, as plugging ordinary cables into them already shorts ring to sleeve.

BTW, the drawing how to connect unbalanced cables to the vintage version is here:

Thanks - looks like it was as simple as the output jacks. Change to TS/unbalanced output and sounds much better. Not a lot (or any until now) with balanced audio in DIY projects - was hoping for the case with some of the newer pro gear that I have where the inputs and outputs don't mind either balanced or unbalanced via TRS jacks.

Also, I wanted to check, the Dim T mode will be pretty noisy, right, in the same way that the Tau is, with the APF ladder?

"Modern" balanced outputs are either electronically balanced in a way that they behave like a transformer (tie one output to GND, and the other output will double its voltage!), or, more often, they are very simple and cheap, balancing only the output impedance: that is, just connecting the ring to GND with the same resistor value you find between the tip and the (unbalanced) output amp. The former is great (at least as long as it doesn't clip), the latter is not really a balanced output if you're asking me; it's just an unbalanced output providing balnced impedance for a balanced input making the best of the connection to an unbalanced output.
What Roland did in the Dimension D is a real balanced output, driving the two wires with opposite polarity - but not like a transformer, i. e. not allowing a short of one end of the output. This is why Roland had separate jacks for balanced and unbalanced outputs. And if you're looking at my schemos, I suggest doing the same, for the "vintage" version.
My "modern" version is less critical by far. Same topology as Roland, but no power output stage to drive 600 Ohm loads. Series resistors large enough to allow a short without damage, and still strong enough to drive modern 10kOhm or higher inputs. It's still not recommended to short these outputs, but it won't cause much harm.

JH.

Thanks for all of the info - good stuff to know.

Also again, wanted to just verify, there will be some noise from the Dim-T chorus, right, just like there is in the Tau Pipe module, from the APF ladder?

The Tau is less noisy than BBDs, but the BBD board has heavy companding going on, so the Dim D is less noisy than the Dim T.

I don't recommend the Dim T version on vocals anyway. It's great for CS80-like synthesizer pads, though, IMO.
