I'm about to finish up my dual psycho lfo module and I was wondering if anyone did the mod on Ken's page. I'm talking about swapping some capacitor values for a slower rate on the LFO's. I was thinking of keeping one stock and having the other a bit slower. Would this basically c

hi, just a quick question about wiring the subosc... on the pot marked A+B (on the panel diagram), is this simply direct from both 4024's (pin 1) or are they taken before, somewhere from the input stage? hope this makes sense, andrew.

Here is a link to the switch I mentioned: http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com/prodinfo.asp?number=G16014 Copy and paste the whole thing. I got all the switches I needed for a dual gate sequencer for $16 plus shipping. Whoot!!! Thomas --- thomas white djthomaswhite@... > wrote:

I think the difference is that On-Off-On stop at the middle setting. The On-None-On passes through the none setting withwout stopping. I hope I am right on this am if I am that it helps. Check out www.goldmine-elec.com for surplus switches. The have a batted handle like MOTM, but

Looking at the Gate Sequencer plans, the ideal toggle switch would be a SPDT "On-Off-On" switch. Then in catalogs there are SPST "On-NONE-On" switches as well. What's the difference? Andrew

Hi all, The CGS burst generator has a built in clock which does not allow for ratchet-type effects. But it allows you to run in an external clock signal. This signal needs ot be a pulse or square-wave output from a VCO or VCLFO. For example if using a Pulse VCO output, the VCO ne
