This is a new take on "My New Attenuator Panel/Cabinet..." posted by Andrew at Jan 18, 2010
Hello Andrew,
I saw your posting about the attenuator module you built. It looks very good.
Like you I will need a bunch of passive attenuators, since I'm gonna use boosters, overdrive, etc, inserted at different points in my modular setup. All in order to squeeze as much sound as possible out of the modules.
Are you just using a pot with the incoming signal at one end, ground at the other, and the attenuated signal taken from the viper. As simple as it is, doesn't that add noise? What's the value of the pot, is it a log one, and do you use other components, resistors, capacitors....?
You're also mentioning a trigger push button. I assume that's something apart from the attenuator, or is it an on-off switch?
Regards, Lars
