Re: PSD photo + looking for PS4

2012-01-17 by cg_synth

The last two Serge PSUs I looked in had Condor supplies in them. They are pretty much the same thing as the Power One supplies. Most of these pre-made Linear PSUs are well designed and will do the job. They are usually based around an LM723 regulator chip. I say *most* because DA

We used Power One supplies in all kits and factory built units in the 70s and 80s. Very few problems with them. Biggest problem might be the add-on 6-volt regulator for older modules that needed 6 volts. --- In SergeModular@yahoogroups.com , BooleanYulian wrote: > > I guess one c

I guess one could get lucky with one of these ebay purchases as some of the sellers are reselling overstock, so in some cases the psu could be brand new.. in this case, the description does read : "tested to power-on" which would imply the the output voltage and it's consistency

No need to get offended just because you're being told by experienced Serge users that it's not a good idea to go this route; many people have contemplated this and have come to the conclusion that's being shared with you. .. $700 for a power supply is a lot of money anywhere in

Here's one good use of the Frequency Shifter module, especially in conjunction with the Variable Slope Filter. The basic notion is to split out a range of frequencies from an input signal, shift them, and then mix them back in with the remaining range of the input signal. Careful
