the 308 that was in the rat will work right? i mean, i assume, since that is basically what this is.

Cant really see/read the positioning of the electro caps on the layout.

thats the one thing i wish Bancika would modify on his program...right now it just uses a "shaded" end to designate the negative side...i wish that, instead of using the shading, which IMO is a bit hard to read, he'd just use a "+" sign on the positive side...other than that, great software all around. it would be nice to have "axial" caps as an option too, but who am i to complain :)

oh well...

i'll have to start marking those i guess...

IIRC, it should work fine. I "believe" the 5534 is basically a "hi-fi" version of the 308, and other single OA's.

No worries... I figured the ones going to ground would be - and the one going to the pot would also be - so I went with it. Im about to post my build report...

  lm308 is a compensated opamp, different than a regular opamp. See data sheet.
Convention creates following, following creates convention.

5534 is too, IIRC...

i didnt check the sheet though...

hmm, isn't the fat cat just a rat with no buffer? the 308 was in the rat...

D-fly, can you post the schem for the fat cat?  I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Thanks,
Travis

Thanks Gus.  I had found that site earlier tonight, but couldn't get it to work. However, just now it worked great.  Story of my life.

audioguy

Hmm I wanted to revisit this but the layout is gone.

tcobretti

If you DL the schem, any Rat layout should work with a little tweaking.
