ring mod ?s

[bonkdav]

I really want a ring modulator in my rig and ive been searching for the right one.  The best bet ive seen is the Thing Modulator.  All i really need is the frequency and level controls so its perfect.  The thing is all smallbear has is the LM567 and it calls for an LMC567.  is there a huge differerence? if so can somebody help me out in sourcing that part. otherwise im open for suggestions to ring mod builds.

Thanks,

Davis

i found them www.futurlec.com had them. they also have quite a few other good components at reasonable prices.

It's true, Futurlec has some really excellent pricing and cheap shipping, but be prepared to wait upwards of a month, since they ship from Thailand. Everything I've ordered from them has been good quality and well packed, but it takes quite a while to get it. Take advantage and stock up on stuff you'll need for the future all at once!

I bought mine from Futurlec, and it took a while but nothing unreasonable.  Yes, you absolutely have to have the LMC567, not the LM.  I like the Thing Mod very much, but had to tack a booster onto the end of up to get the volume up to a reasonable level.

There is another ring mod that I haven't built that is simple and supposed to be very good and also simple called the Nyquist Aliaser. There are two versions, you want to build the CMOS version.
