hi folks,
i just wanted to let you all know that i did not ship any PCBs yet. it is just because i have been occupied by my daily job last week. nevertheless all your payments have been received thankfully. you e-m forum members show a valuable discipline and responsibility.
i will ship the PCBs this week and will inform you on that via paypal.
thank you. _________________

This sounds like a fun and easy project. If you have any pcbs left please let me know as I'd like one. Thanks! |

Hi Matthias,
How do you properly adjust the 2 trimmers? It looks like they're for minimizing the offset of the OTAs, right? What is the proper procedure though - feeding an LFO into the mod input, looking at the test point with a scope and adjusting the trimmer until the bleedthrough of the LFO signal is minimized there?
Very much looking forward to getting my board, thanks! |

almost.
feed the input with an audio sine, and look at the testpoint to get the shape of the sine corrected.
i will look deeper into this on the weekend to come up with a good procedure, that could be implemented to the documentation then... _________________

I just read a post from someone in an old thread complaining about how most VCOs these days don't include sine waves. |

Sorry if I'm a little dense but are these pcbs through-hole or SMT? |

Through hole no SMT parts involved. |

Hi Matthias
Are you likely to be producing Euro front panels for this module?
Thanks

I'm now wondering how to do a 5U for this, If I do standard MOTM 1U, I'll have nowhere to put the extra socket, and it seems a little wasteful to use a 2U panel just to accommodate 1 extra socket. I may have to use smaller rotary knobs and place the sockets next to each of those
Any other 5U guys out there building this? _________________ LektroiD |

I've got 2 on the way, so I'm planning to squeeze 2 rows of 5 sockets on a 2U panel (You can just get away with this using Switchcraft jacks) for the both of them on one panel.

Boards arrived! Thanks Fonik.
Just wondering if there would be much degradation in sound if I used ceramic caps for C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8? Just that I've run out of 100n poly caps.. _________________ LektroiD |

no. these are not part of the actual signal path, but just used to decouple the ICs from the power rails. _________________

It's ok, I used ceramics at the PSU stage, and I found a couple of polyester film capacitors for the rest of the circuit. I didn't realise they were decoupling caps at the time, as I only just got your reply, and was impatient to build this, or I'd have just used ceramics throughout. Oh well, they're built now (not tested yet though). _________________ LektroiD |
