one time i saw green plasma arcing between pin 3 (plate) and pin 2 (filament), set off by shorting them together with a DMM probe that slipped.
(fortunately no harm / damage, amp is doing great).
i was measuring plate voltage to ground.
to calculate plate dissipation, as part of setting the...
i feel fortunate that this isn't a problem for me. but yeah nah, i hear ya.
i guess my experience with reverb only goes as far as boss rv-3, rv-5, rrv-10 and those are quite charming, but still quite enjoy what the belton/PT2399er stuff does.
it's so good.
crikey o_O
what about a randomized...
depends if it's yet another zuul clone or not.
if it is and it's using the same THAT43xx chips, then yeah nah. (struggling to find one in your gutshots but i'm assuming it's hidden on the other side)
yeah i guess this is what a belton is (x3 PT2399), but tbh I've been pretty happy with what the BTDR-3H does, and even the -2H does a convincing job (for me..)
whenever i hear folks ragging on the belton/PT2399, it immediately makes me wonder what context they're using it in....
would you...
same. hand-vise, hand-drill.
i have a bench vise, but it's almost 100 years old and a PITA to use for this purpose, where it's just so much quicker and easier to hold it down on the bench with your hand for punch, pilots, and final.
ay cheers 🤙🏻
yeah that sounds like a winning combo. whats your go to for a reverb?
just as well! don't sleep on it, this one's great.
maybe it's the eBow lol. goes really well with delay so i had to give it a feature
PT2399 delay circuits have always served me well :)
so far I’ve tried:
- Deep Blue Delay (Seabed)
- Magnetron (Magnetic Echo)
- Dark Rift (EQD Space Spiral)
- Aleph Null Tape Delay (effectslayouts mkI)
- DeadastronautFX Abductor II (4x PT2399)
I’ve always thought the Deep Blue was the...
have you considered trying some KR140UD1408?
indicated as a soviet reverse engineered LM308, and after seeing drunk beaver's investigation with scope evidence, it looks pretty convincing that they behave identically. (have breadboarded a few of these against motorola & ns lm308hz and they sound...
