New String Damper layout

RaceDriver205 · August 01, 2006, 08:55:35 PM

Aight peoples, churned out a new layout for the String Damper. Reviews of this effect have been very mixed, some say its da shiz n, some say its just shiz. But I would say this - DONT substitute the LM13600 for a LM13700, as it WILL make a difference in this case (according to the circuit).
Layout's at the usual site: www.tothemax.web1000.com

I usually test a layout before I post it, but in this case I have not. I just checked it very very thoroughly. If someone wants to give it a go and test it, that'd be awesome. I'll have to wait until I do my next smallbear order to get a 13600.

Just bumping it in case anyone who wants one missed it. Argh, I wish smallbear hadn't run out of Wah Shells!

The link doesn't work...

I'm interested though...

Are you sure? What happens when you click the link?
Works for me

Yeah, that happens on very rare occations. Somewhere in the web1000.com FAQ is says something about certain browsers/settings dont work for their sites. Most people seem to be getting through though, based on the counter readings.

Ive put an alternative image of both the layout and PCB here:

As I said in the web1000 page, the PCB obviously needs scaling at the user-end.

I'm going to build this a.s.a.p!
thanks!

Awesome, tell us how it goes.
You can be the first "guinea pig"

. Just kidding, all my layouts always work.

What is the difference when using LM13700 I ask you?

RaceDriver205 · August 03, 2006, 07:21:56 PM

On the integrated circuit level, there is a single extra transistor connected between something and the buffers. If you look at the 600 and 700 datasheets, you'll see this on the internal circuit diagram. As the buffers are used in this design, it will make a difference.

Updated the layout to include the polarities of the Electro Caps.

did anyone end up building this? Still havent bought lm13600s
