Re: VCA Compressor Gain Reduction Limit

Hello, I have been reading this thread with a lot of interest and wondered whether anyone has tested this clamp successfully yet. I tried it briefly on a test board but all it produced was heavy distortion -- probably due to some mistake of mine. I should try again... But I wonder whether the schema...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors - Boards 5/1

Very inspiring indeed! I'd really love to see the white papers laid out :) First I was a bit confused, but I guess the "independent" line driver refers to U1 & U2. Not sure I'd need that -- personally I'd rather retrofit my unbalanced gear. But the idea about parallel compression is re...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Construction Information

Hello, A stupid cap question. In the preliminary BOM it says "0.1/100V Mono Ceramic Mouser 581-SR201C104KAR" (= radial monolithic cap, $0.40 per item). I'm thinking about implementing the MS board into the Pico compressor, which -- according to the BOM -- uses 0.1/50V caps (Mouser: 80-C317...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors

Hi, I hope I caught up on all recent developments and after reading several passages several times I must say that (both thumbs up) I see a highly potent and widely customizable board, amazing... ...with only one minor problem: an output stage IC that produces an overall unity gain of +6db. 5532 MOD...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors

Hi, By hand picking 1246/1240 combinations I can make the L to R as good as the R to L numbers. I think that the quote is about matching ICs for an--by now--outdated prototype, but it makes me wonder how many ICs one would need to find pairs that really excel. I roughly know the number when it comes...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors

Same here: I'd be in for 1 or 2 depending on price.
