Yes, something is certainly fishy with my filter, so I went ahead and ordered the kit from Elby out of d.i.y. desperation. Thanks, I will look through the archive... Adam Schabtach wrote: > > If you look through the archives of this mailing list, or (more > simply) look > at the

If you look through the archives of this mailing list, or (more simply) look at the comments by John Loffink at the end of the page on Ken's CGS site about this filter, you'll see that some people have found that the frequency control has too much effect rather than too little. T

steiner filter supercharger?

2005-11-13 by betweenpie

Well, my first attempt a +/-15 device - a Steiner filter - isn't going so well. Seems the frequency and res controls have little or no effect, depending on which input is being used. I will keep tweaking, however. I'm quite new to this, although I've built a number of successful

Re: Feedback in ASR?

I think you would find that the S&H caps would prevent this. You would get some sort of signal through, but way reduced, as these caps take quite a while to charge up. You could reduce the caps I guess, but that would make it worthless as an ASR. Yes it is bipolar. Ken >Yeah, it'

Yeah, it's not designed for processing audio, but it does handle bipolar signals, right? I imagine it would sound very nasty processing audio, dividing it into narrow slices (grains) - although to have an output resembling audio it would have to be clocked very quickly, so it mig

The ASR is a CV processor, not a signal processor. I haven't tried clocking it at audio rates. Obviously the clock would come through very strongly in the output. Feedback is a useful principle in general though. If you mixed one of the outputs together with the input CV it would

You can obtain just the breadboard itself for a lot less money, and you could either use your modular's power supply or buy/build a bench supply. Total cost would still be less than that package. You won't need both +/-12 and +/-15V supplies (one or the other--probably 15 if you'
