Title: Pork Barrel Depth mod question
Post by: shay1510 on October 31, 2012, 05:17:35 PM
Hey guys,
I was just about to solder the parts when I've noticed that there's an option in the instructions to change
the resistor R39 for an lfo indicator/depth mod.
Would you recommend this mod?
Thought about using a spdt switch to change between the two options. What do you think?

Thanks.

I've done it exactly as mentioned in the docs and like the sound. If you're after some extreme chorus sounds, this is for you, but more subtle sounds are still available. I'll be building another Porkbarrel soon, and plan on putting it on a switch, to give some more flexability. The lfo indicator is nice, but because of the large (22k if I remember correctly) resistor, it's not very bright, so that won't make it to the next one....
Hope this helps!

Paul

Thanks, I'm going to try it (the resistor switching mod) and report back  :D
