EA Tremolo problem

no, not the led resistor. follow the string of 3 caps from base to collector of osc transistor (I'm not looking at a circuit, so I'm not quoting part designators). the rate pot and its fixed resistor (the variable leg) is connected between one pair and ground, and a fixed resistor to ground (the fixed leg) is between the other pair. it doesn't matter which leg goes to which cap pair, but they both determine the operating frequency.

so, find that fixed leg, and tack a resistor across it, and the range of your pot will shift faster min speed, faster max speed. and if you really wanna get funky, find an ldr, tack that across the fixed led, then build another osc. flash the second osc's rate led at the ldr, hey presto, more weird wobbles.
Hey, Scoop - how's your security clearance?

Check your Signal level there, Scoop - I thought you said witchhunt.

george! come back! I'm currently building an ea trem, and "it runs too slow". what value changes did you make, and are you happy with?
