Gainclown PCB question

[zatramusic]

rossl>>
in the one i've build?? the inverted one...i thought that the loop resistor should have a bigger value..at least bigger than 10K. but i'm not a profi...so are you correct??

 

[zatramusic]

does any one have a clue whac could be wrong?

 

[zatramusic]

no one?

 

[zatramusic]

the distortions are the same on every volume...
they seam to rise with density of the sound

what can be the cause of that??

please help

It is probably just the gainclown having some fun with you.. apart from the distortion can you hear any strange honky noises from your speakers?

 

[zatramusic]

no...only music and distortions...

it's a sad honkless clown

hi zatramusic,
why dont you try the non inverted one... just look for rod elliot gainclone ( sound.westhost.com/ ). its great sounding, no distortion, no humming...

keep 100nF filter caps near the IC

 

[zatramusic]

hi... sorry i wasn't online for some time..
i've made the ni design and everything is fine now

 

[mic_ael]

that's better nice to know...
how do u feel, you made your own great sounding masterpiece ?

 

[zatramusic]

hehe..masterpiece no..but a good sounding aplifier yes..now i'm building a preamplifier but unfortunatly analog has some problems with sending samples... i tried to sample ssm2404 for source selector ..everything was fine then i recieved an email that analog has problems with my email adress and my order is canceled

 

[zatramusic]

maybe someone knows with what can i replace the ssm2404??
