Hey all,

I've completed the Tapanatorator and associated T.Tremolo and it's working fine, except the range of the T1 pot that controls the brightness of the LED is a little finicky - on the build document, it states that for working with the Tremolo circuit, that it should generally be set to maximum. On my build, it seems that if I put it up more than 1/4 of the way, I get a warm distortion to the tremolo. Nice, but I'd prefer clean!

I assume I'm overdriving the LED a little and pushing the 9203 LDR too hard? Perhaps I should just increase R2 on the Tapanatorator board?

Thanks

Charles

Hey everyone,

My first post here so hello

I just etched the BFC this afternoon and built it up. Everything is working well, though the action of the clipping control confuses me. It seems to only to send signal to the compressor when turned completely CCW. Otherwise the level is just below unity (ie not sending much signal to the comp circuit I think).

I'm just wondering what the reason for the change is on this schematic in relation to the Keeley 4 Knob, because it only has the 2 lugs of the pot connected and omits the 390k resistor in parallel with the 2n2 cap.

Cheers

Charles
