well i'm at least getting a bit closer to figuring out how to use this set up. a couple of things to note: the sine wave from the generator starts to look get tall and un-sine wave like (almost flat at one part of the top) as i turn the volume of the signal up. I can get a very clean sine wave to show on the scope if the signal volume is right. Is this just because of distortion as the signal gets louder? also, while taking measurements in different spots, i would sometimes have to switch the settings on the scope to get it clear. is this just due to probing diffeerent points in the circuit that have different levels of gain?
so on the input jack, i get a nice clear wave. the b+ looks like a saw tooth, but is clean looking. there does not appear to be a sine wave riding the saw tooth wave. i noticed probing the grid of v1 it looked good, but starting at v2 there are small lines (like a little dash) perpendicular to the wave that "rides it" up and down the hills and valleys. could this be what i'm looking for?
a few other things that seem strange. running a cd or the generator through the amp and speaker, i dont not hear any out of tuneness or abnormal distortion. also, i cant get over the fact that even with the dirt channel turned off (jumpered), the volume and gain knob still add that wierd "super bass" when they are both turned up high. Seems to me they should be completely isolated from the clean channel.
thanks for the help and holding my hand while i stumble through trying to learn how to use this scope.
