more interested in getting an eclosure like this than knobs

i quickly put together this little circuit i found somewhere in here for the stereo mod


http://s999.photobucket.com/albums/af111/njkmonty/?action=view&current=ADAstereoout-3.jpg

, but didn't work then i came across this at moosapotomus's site

Stereo outputs mod
The idea for this mod is to feed a clean signal to a second output jack, and install a toggle switch to remove the clean signal that is mixed into the main output. The clean signal can be tapped directly from the input (direct thru), or from the output of the first input buffer stage (Pad A). The toggle switch should be installed to make/break a connection between the two pads at Pad C. Note that when the toggle breaks the Pad C connection, some regen will also be cut out of the output. Alternatively, a switching type jack could be used for the second output jack to break the connection between the two pads at Pad C when a plug is inserted.


can anyone whos actually done advise????

Re: A/DA Flanger does TZF?



it looks different to the earlier version,
i tried the tonepad chorus add on stereo mod, but didnt sound right

Semi-necro post  :icon_eek:

Just wondering if this unit can be run (with the LT1054 charge pump) from a 9V battery.

Using the recommended components from the moosapotomus build notes (LM324s, LT1054 charge pump, etc.) would it kill a 9V quick or is it a viable addition?

Opinions or experiences??  ;D

Current draw is around 30mA or something I think? Should last a while on a battery.

The LT1054 has a top limit of 100mA so it'll at least last a gig.

Good deal! Thanks  ;)

I am just about done with building up the excellent board from Charlie and I have run into a problem that may not be a problem  ;D

According to the schematic and layout, R71 is supposed to be a 14K resistor. I do not have that value handy at the moment but I DO have a 13K and a 15K.

Could I sub one of these values in there WITHOUT any ill effects to the circuit? I see that this resistor is between the V+ input on Pin 1 and the Vgg input on Pin 4 of the MN3007.

Could someone please verify that the 13K/15K would work here? I am thinking of the larger (15K) value to be safe.

Thanks  ;)

P.S. I would like to NOT put 2 values together to make the 14K if at all possible.

You need 1/15 15Vcc @ Vgg. (~1V)
Any resistors providing the ratio will be OK (in my MXR clone I used 100K + 7K5)

Fender to the rescue!!  :P

That is what I was afraid of  :icon_cry:

I can only assume that the 14K is essential to getting the right voltage into Pin 4 of the MN3007. According to the schemo, the V+ (+15V) from the regulator is passing through a 250 ohm resistor then it goes DIRECTLY into Pin 1 AND it goes through the 14K to Pin 4.

Now I am thinking that changing the value of R71 (to 15K or 13K) will effect that voltage level going into Pin 4.

I guess I will need to get me a 14K resistor OR ruin my picture perfect board with 2 resistors soldered in series  :icon_cry:

Nope,
you just have to change R71/R70 ratio (14k/1k) 27k/2k or 33k/2k4 will be ok.
the 250 res. is there just to filter BBD's supply toghether with C36

15k - 5% Tollerance 14.25k is possible if you measure a few of your resistors, close enough.

Or... just use a 13 or 15k... I know it's meant to be 14/15th Vdd but a lot of the time people ignore that straight out and just connect it to voltage or ground depending on 3007 or 3207, personally I always just use the diode drop, 0.6V is close enough 14/15th the majority of the time.

I've not had any issues having it be a bit off.

Or you could produce 14K by using a 220K resistor in parallel with the 15K.

Don't know if this has been brought up in this mammoth thread but I figured I would post this for all prospective builders of the Rev 5 MN3007 retro-fit boeards.

I noticed today that the external CV pedal wiring (JK3) is mis-labeled on the moose board. The wiring is labeled as Sw (switch), T (Tip), and S (sleeve) of the switching jack.

In actuality, it SHOULD be labeled Sw (switch), T (tip), and R (Ring). According to the schematics, the sleeve should be grounded and the RING should be connected to R53.

Am I correct in this?

You are correct, Sir! 8)

Here is my build of this FANTASTIC board and circuit from moosapotamus:



This is probably the best flanger I have built to date!

I do have one problem.... I cannot get the Threshold control to act properly.

Can anyone enlighten me on a good way to dial in the Threshold control? I am using a 2N4393 transistor.

I use the same gate in my MXRs clones actually...  :icon_wink:
FET suffers the "phaser matching process"  :icon_biggrin:
Carefully select a proper FET, or add a bias setting to FET's gate, instead of R32...

Otherwise, if it's a gain issue try playing with R28 and R27 (100 ohms is way too low...)

OK. If I keep R28 at 1M5, and I were to install a trimmer pot for R27.... what value would you suggest? If 100 ohms is too low  ;D

The series pot (Threshold pot) is only 10KB. Should I try a 100K multi-turn trimmer in place of R27?

What value are you using for the main threshold control? Increasing that from 10K up to 100K should help, if you haven't done that already.

Sweet looking build, BTW!
