Well you’d want an active blender at the end.
Also, you can’t really do analog detune.
Best you can do is chorus.
At the very least, you’d want 100kA volume fader after every effect followed by a 4k7 mixing resistor.
yup, that.. they should (in theory) ‘push’ the signal where you want it to go.. I don’t know enough about these things to be honest, but I’m thinking exactly what your dad is thinking.
ya i planned on using that idea. whats the a in 100kA? also whats this 4.7k mixing resistor?
hey mel, i was wondering what it was that you were saying about the buffers and stuff. you never got back to me on that. i ordered a ton of parts last night and my dad said he would get me a bread board or 2 from his work and get em to be by friday next week
oh and julian, you too, i had a question
…. most signal splitters/mixers use an active system using buffers/line drivers to route the signal in multiple directions and blend them back together, doing this passively buy just splitting the signal and trying to join it back together doesn’t usually work very well… that’s all i’m saying. I don’t know know enough to even begin to suggest how and where you should incorporate this into your design though..
thats ok. i bought a really good book and its been helpin me out alot
If you wire two signals together and put them to an output, it generally doesn’t work, but adding a small amount of resistance to each signal is a quick way to get it to.
100kA means 100k ohms Audio taper. Volume works on a logarithmic scale instead of a linear scale, so audio pots are designed to give you a smooth taper in volume with audio signals.
sweet. thanks
so would this work?
