Hi, I'm building the CGS sequential switch using the Bridechamber panel. I've got it all wired up and working beautifully and now I want to add the final step which is the glide :) I've got what I can understand from Scott's site all wired up but there are two things I'm not too

Hi all. Am just finishing off building a CGS31, and plan to have 2 CV inputs AND a rate pot. First thought was to simply add aCGS04 mixer, with 2 regular inputs, and another input wired as a voltage divider between +15V and GND, then take the output to the CV input on the CGS31 b

Scott, I just noticed the diagram on your page has a diode before each gate switch. I did not do this. I just printed your diagram and I'll try this mod tonight. http://www.bridechamber.com/bridechamber.com/C%20Event%20Seq_files/ev%20seq%20wire%20diagram-1.jpg --- In cgs_synth@ya

I'm building the CGS28 sequencer for MOTM format using the Bridechamber panel. It's assembled, but when I power it up and send clock I only see a faint pulse on the first LED. It doesn't progress to any of the other steps. I've tried the two mods: TL074 pin 8: change 22k to 100k

Hi all, Just a note that I uploaded a recent mp3 demo of my CGS Gate Sequencer and MFOS 16-step sequencer up at the following link: http://www.naturalrhythmmusic.com/Gate_Sequencer_Demo.mp3 The Synth is a single MOTM voice sequenced by the MFOS. All the drums are controlled by my

you could not do it with one, as it would suffere from exactly the same problem. I stillt hink you are best gating the outputs. Have a look at the gate sequencer. It was designed to do what you are trying to get this to do. You could probably even use the gate sequencer buffer bo

If I was to use a CGS24 gate to trigger converter, would I need to have the 8 gate channels of the sequencer go into 8 separate channels of gate to trigger conversion that would then go go to the mix gate out (between the gate out and the switch), or would I just use one converte

Hi all, i recently built a CGS735 Steiner Filter from Elby. The lowpass filter seems to cut quite a bit of bass apart from the high frequencies which it has to filter. I'd love to modify it a bit, in order to have more bass passing through. Would it make sense to play with the va

Thanks, Laurie. Ya, I've checked out the panther series several times. I'm not as interested in those, except for the VCA/Panner. I guess I was talking specifically about the modules on the CGS site's 'PCB'S for Sale' page that could be modded (cut in half, like the Tube VCA) to

Hey guys. Beside the Tube VCA/Timbral Gate and the Steiner VCF are there any other modules/pcb's that is eurorack compatible? Can you 'cut' any of the other pcb's (like the Tube VCA) to fit the eurorack standard? Thanks guys! [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Hi Ken, I tried the first way but the mix gate out is still behaving the same way it did at the beginning only now sequencer clocks kinda funny. What I did was first I took out the caps (in series with a diode,left diode in) and 100k resistor, then I cut pin 6 on the 4051 (the on

It's longer than will fit vertically behind a eurorack module, but can be cut in half and the connections re-joined. The pads are already on the board for this very purpose. I just mounted mine horizontally on an "L" bracket. PS - Do fit a feedback pot as suggested by Ken on the

Each gate signal lasts a full clock cycle so it is no wonder you get a constant 5 volts when all are used. You need to shorten the output pulses. Try cutting the inhibit in to the gate 4051 (pin 6 )and connecting it to the clock instead (pin 7 of the quad op-amp). Alternatively,

I use a cigarette lighter. I'll put it on for about half a second or less. Works great, more even than a soldering iron. I used to use a desoldering iron with the sucker hooked up to the blower (if that makes sense). [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

You have probably done some physical damage, such as lifting a solder pad, or breaking a wire that you have somehow not noticed. And it probably occured when you were tidying up wires. You may have even heat-shrinked over a bad joint! Ken >Hi, > > I've just built my first CGS mod

first off never heatshrink with a blowdryer. a heatshrink gun exists for a reason. secondly when you heatshrink do it away from components. aim specifically towards the shrink wrap and nothing else. what you should've done is heatshrinked it first before solderin it up to the boa
