Re: The Waveulator: Two VCA-based Clipper Saturators

Thanks Doug and everyone! The additional boards are expected in a couple of days. I'm working on the assembly instructions now. Now that I have real PC boards I hope to address the Ratio control stepped switch taper. I found that I mostly used the top third of the control which suggests an anti-log-...

Re: High-load SMPS for a recording console

Christian - Thanks for joining us! I guess the question that comes to mind is whether or not the common mode chokes will saturate with a DC load. I haven't looked at the data sheets yet. Large CM chokes usually are for switcher primary circuits, and with most switchers being designed for either AC o...

Re: The Waveulator: Two VCA-based Clipper Saturators

Thanks everyone.

I just got a shipment notice from ExpressPCB - the boards should be here Wednesday.

I've had orders to ship and boards to build during the break.

I need to get the Waveulator BOM together.
There's a couple of 1% values I need to get from Mouser.

I'll update the previou...
