Howdy All,
    I built the EA Tremolo a while ago and it works great with the depth mod, etc...  I know it can be used for a keyboard, My friend had an older keyboard, a cheap one, and it seemed to work fine with it, tho a little bit noisy(not enough to not use it tho).  Now my friend has another keyboard and the tremolo doesn't work with it.  I am not sure why.   Maybe a higher output or higher output that is noisier. Not sure why, but it just won't work right with this keyboard.  Any suggestions to help remedy the problem?  Is there something I need to change to make it work with this keyboard?

Thanks!

The EA is expecting a very small guitar signal and Keyboards are normally "Line level"
If you put a small resistor "in line" with the input, that should work, perhaps a value of
10k to 100k would work ( experiment ) to reduce the signal down.

Thanks Marty!  I will put a pot on the front end and experiment!
