    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    Those clips were done looping the bass with an Hx Stomp. The Nobelium was set with no hpf, bass maxed, treble at noon, and xlr volume maxed. I was hitting the transformers as hard as I could so that the differences would be more pronounced. I haven't gotten a chance to compare with more...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    From my initial listening: Unagi - Amazing, sounds very clear and balanced throughout the whole frequency range. I would choose the Unagi if you want a natural well extended sound LBA - Also amazing but more colored. I hear a touch more heft in the low end and the highs are tucked down just a...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I'm waiting to get the right XLR jacks but I'll do some testing in the mean time. What's a good software for measuring frequency response and THD? I have REW and Multitone analyser but I haven't used them before.

    Skeptical buffer introduces noise when harmonics switch engaged

    The "harmonics" switch is just a high frequency boost so its more likely to bring out any fizzy white noise in your chain. Maybe try putting a cap from pin4 to ground and pin8 to ground of the opamp? If for some reason you have a lot of psu noise that should help a little.

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I've been in this same situation for the past few months. Short answer: You can't get them right now I've talked to Jensen, radial, and every other distributor and no one has them. I even talked to Jack from Nobel and he's having a hard time getting a hold of them. There is a Rode branded one...

    Favorite amp replacement pedal?

    That board is really tiny. A mini Atmos setup has been climbing up my to do list and those boards would be great to put into the speakers.

    Favorite amp replacement pedal?

    Honestly I could just patch in whatever preamp to the existing power amp currently in the combo. There's no fx loop but it's easy to find where the patch point would go. As for the class AB amp, I just want to give it a try. It's probably what the combo has already tbh. I might even try a class...

    Favorite amp replacement pedal?

    I'm trying to practice guitar more and want to convert my cheap combo amp to something nicer. I have amp modelers and nice pedals and all that, but I just want something that's plug and play. I plan to gut out the amp and replace it with a preamp, a reverb, and a class AB amp board Im...

    Blue tac alternative?

    I love using blue tac to hold my parts and PCBs in place while soldering. The only problem is that bluetac softens with heat so it can get a little messy when a part gets too hot. Are there any alternatives to like blue tac that aren't as heat sensitive?

    unbalanced to balanced line isolator; is it this simple?

    Yes but don't go super cheap. People like oeps in some mic pres. It's probably good enoug for guitar. https://www.newark.com/oep-oxford-electrical-products/a262a7e/audio-transformer-600-ohm-600/dp/67T0961

    In case anyone else sees that reddit post that says j270s are an alternative to pf5102s They are not and they don't work in this circuit. J201s worked for me with no changes. If you're swapping transistors bias according. I could have saved a lot of headache checking the data sheets myself...

    SOLVED Who else gets gremlins when socketing transistors?

    My very first batch of commissioned/commercial pedals were 3 germanium fuzzes. I socked all the transistors and they all fell out in shipping. I had some very angry people messaging me when their brand new pedal arrived non-functioning. I had to get them all back, solder in the transistors and...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I was able to check out a JT-DB-EPC at CS but received an email a few days later stating that they don't have any and don't know if they will be getting more because these transformers are now manufactured in Canada.

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    Well CS doesn't have one and won't be restocking it seems because tarrifs and such. They do have the cinemag equivalent though. I've contacted Jensen directly and haven't heard back. I'll try radial

    Passinwind Open Source Hybrid Filter Preamp Builds

Bass ~ +- 12db @ 70hz Mids ~ +- 12db @ 600hz Treble is the lpf module with a +3dB/+6dB resonance switch All the EQ curves sounded great in my daw so I'm excited to hear how it sounds. I'm not totally...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    Looks like Cable solutions has one and it's now on the way. If I have time I'll try to do a shoot out with the three. I can reamp from my interface and turn the XLR output all the way up so the transformer is getting hit hard. If the differences are great enough I might be able to isolate...

    What amp should I build?

    1590dd is the biggest size tayda sells i think. The only reason I would go with something that small is for the cheap drilling tayda does
