Hey
What can I build with CA3080 chips?
I have 15 of them sat here (vintage RCA) doing nothing
I was thinking to make a Small Stone for fun but they use 3094s :(
The tonepad small stone is adapted for CA3080 use.
The Ross/Dyna comp.
EHX Black Finger Compressor (original no tube one).
Quite a few things but they're the most popular.
The Ross compressor is one of the more famous ones.
I did a PCB layout of that circuit since I hadn't built one before. I should have a few extras if you are interested. Assuming it works, of course. :-)
You can build a ross compressor or maybe a honey dripper . The sharkfin will probably uses 2 too . And maybe the junk trunk will uses ca3080 too , I dont know .

cool
will look into the tonepad.
Also a Dipthonizer.
yeah I have the honey drippper PCB somewhere...
Ah missed that someone had already mentioned that.
The Engineers thumb I'm releasing needs one also.

Keeley 4 knob compressor too..
Craig Anderton seemed to be keen on the CA3080 back when. Like, the era of the Paia Gator, which uses uses it.

Nice. I have about a dozen 3080s that I've been holding on to for years now. Would be nice to put at least one to use. :D
Yeah I know keeley c4, is a 'tinkered with' Ross, but they do sound awesome!
