PSA - Deadastronaut's Tremshifter project -- filter + tremolo :)

I like it a lot ... my main reaction to the clip is ... "sci fi movie soundtrack" ... but it's interesting enough to challenge me creatively.

one thing I noticed is that the rate pot is very sensitive between 8 and 10 o' clock, and he doesn't use it much out of that range ... likely it could use a different value there

[ggarms]

I don't think I'd ever have a reasonable use for this, but I want one anyway.

^ says me every time I see something new the struggle continues....

Me three... I PM'd Rob about holding one for me from the next batch anyways 

[Tremster]

So did I.

Rob does not like to fiddle with pot tapers. I believe he used reverse-wired Linear or Log taper pots for the Rate controls where he should have used Rev Log (C-taper) pots wired correctly.

Just ordering parts for a lot of projects, including this one.
Sorry, I can't find the LDRs anywhere, 2k-24k.
Which of these could I use instead: http://www.banzaimusic.com/Photocells/
Or optocouplers?
Thank you.

I asked the same question on diysb and seems like people are using tayda ldrs. I've just ordered my pcb today and so I'll report back on my build report...

[alanp]

The spec for Tayda is 500k, IIRC, and you can always parallel resistors to reduce a LDR's resistance. (Might do odd things to the response curve, but that never comes up, weirdly.)

[ggarms]

Is there any official way to snag a PCB for this or does it just involve sending rob an email??

[muddyfox]

pm him on diysb but I'm not sure he's got any left (he'll be shipping them out soon).

[jubal81]

I'd sent him a PM a while back and he responded today with an address to gift the money to - so i did.

[miter53]

I just ordered a board from Rob. Has anyone started building this?

[juansolo]

Tis way down the list, but I've got one. I've got so many PCBs now it's getting silly...
