Without a link to a schematic, or even the layout you used, can't say for sure, but they are typical voltages for a TL072. Likely a wiring problem, but without pictures, or a schematic or layout, hard to tell. Audio probe is a good way to continue your trouble shooting.

either you labeled the pins backwards, or your IC is in backwards.

Open Discussion / 3 Way Amp Splitter
February 05, 2016, 08:08:09 PM
Hola

Nothing too new here, but I thought I'd see if anyone with experience could comment on this schematic for a 3 way splitter. Used with at least 2 amps, possibly three, or used to send to a DAW, etc. Loops added to each channel for using effects on specific outputs.

I don't think all three need to be isolated/ground lifted, even if it's three amps. Is that correct? I was looking at the radial switchbone, which seems to only ground lift and correct phase on one output. Would the output without the transformer's sleeve be grounded to the enclosure, or would that need isolation too?

Thanks for any advice.

Open Discussion / Re: Seeking advice for buying a PC
February 03, 2016, 06:56:28 PM
I finished my first PC build a few months ago. Besides some OP problems, I couldn't be happier, but that's a whole rabbit hole you might not want to get in to.

I have used and had heard and seen quite a few good reviews of IBUYPOWER PC's, however; whether they are available in Europe, I am unsure. They are sold at quite a few places - newegg.com being on of them.

As far as what you missed, I'm not a huge computer affcianado, but I think AMD is getting close to going Mano a mano with Intel, especially when you factor in price. Based on using the same system for 8 years, it doesn't sound like you're big on upgrading things, which I believe is AMD's current biggest problem. Something about certain lines being not-future proof as far as upgrading only the CPU.

Sorry for taking out the personal ad, but a member here PM'd me about an echorec, and I had PM'd back, but it seems to have gotten erased in the latest round of crashes. Shoot me another PM if ya want!

Cheers

Very nice! Are they bronze or is that photo trickery?

My advice would be to make a buffer in a 1590A (good first 1590A build, I think), and leave the volume pedal un-modded. Passive volume pedals are really useful as expression pedals :) especially high-impedance ones.

This, but only because of the volume pedal itself. If it's the one with the string that moves the pot, I suggest not taking it apart, as it is a BEAR to get back together. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I could have sworn Lectric was working on one of these?

Indeed they are, but I believe they are retrofitting the SAD chip with a handful of MN3007's as per Nelson's old project from way back when. The reissue big box (and possibly the smaller one?) uses a 3008 and 3009. I haven't played this version, but I've heard it sounds significantly different from the SAD1024 ones. Maybe OP can give their opinion.

Still a great find there AnyKnee!

Good! I'm seeing now my photo isn't coming up. Did it work before?

Google "Effects order switcher schematic" and you will get quite a few hits back. For example, this one:



Rather than use send and return jacks, you will just use wire to go to the ins and outs of the circuit bypass switches. You can use a 3PDT if you don't want to use an LED or don't have access to a 4PDT. The 'A' section could be your compressor, and the B section be the fuzz and over drive. Or flip it around, doesn't matter too much.

Audio probe is a good next step.

Your transistor in the right way/substitute it for a different value?

I'd start a claim, if you were going to trouble shoot it, I'd just rather build one, and for a lot less thank 100 I'm guessing.

An MN3005 delay for a lot less than $100? You could maybe sneak in just around $100 if you have a lot of the stuff to make a complete pedal already.
