Yeah and partial bypass with series resistor to get shelving.

I mean r4 ain't limiting much I think. Could also be fun to put the bass control in the emitter path. Partial bypass. I'm mainly just throwing ideas out there for fun. There is such a thing as too much gain.

Yeah I took all of 2 minutes thinking before posting. Might be the village idiot today but there'll be another tomorrow.

Let me read it more first lol 😆

That's fun! Just toggle between the banks? That's a rather elaborate switch if so?

Excuse me if I'm preaching to the choir but it occurs to me that many FV-1 builds distinguish themselves through off board programs on the EPROM. Why not socket that part and swap EEPROMs to cycle programs? Like stupid easy way to get all the sounds. Right?

Everyone's gangsta until you bring a chug to a choo choo contest

No! A *chug* contest.

Filtering! Not enough filtering in the wet path. Electrosmash specifically recommends rolloff at like 1k for pt2399s and I find my Belton build fine bc I low passed at 3kish. People go wild for *sparkle* at like 6k not realizing most guitar amps beam like crazy above 2k and guitar doesn't have...

It's be interesting to swap a Darlington into the first Q. That texture control is a neat way of varying symmetry.

The irony is the massive TI fabs being constructed in the US make it *seem* like tariffs are returning manufacturing but that ball was rolled by *cough cough* Biiiiden with the Chips act which *cough cough* word on the street was not popular with the current admin.

The constrain is it has to be one note only. Best one note riffs.

Reminds me of @Passinwind preamp.

Additional rule, no using 50% tolerance.

How bout a minimized component value test? Like you get to use 3 resistor values for the whole build etc.

How about a contest to see who has the best contest idea?

Late to the party and assuming you're starting from scratch, but I think your best bet is to design an optical compressor with the optocoupler pre-assembled such as an XVIVE. To be blunt, side chain design is a pain and the optos take that out of the mix by having attack and decay built in...

I believe MLCCs are also prone to microphonic. Correct me if I'm wrong though. Electrolytic are preferred for their capacitance/voltage rating compared to size.

There are painfully few tutorials on compression online. I'd also add the vaults of https://thatcorp.com/design-notes/ Also Lantertronics on YT does some great higher level engineering discussion.

I've noticed that lower supply divider resistors shift my filter points down. I guess since there's a frequency at which the capacitors has enough impedance to not short to ground anymore. This changes a bunch of filters that operate on low frequencies.
