  • Dunlop Rotovibe schematic

    Anyone have one? I've searched the usual places...
    I'm looking to mod the pedal to provide more gain.

    thx

    Hi,
    I'm sure I saw a schemo over at DIY Stompboxes site a couple of weeks ago.............could be wrong though.

      Thanks for the heads up!

      I missed that on diystompboxes last night.

        Here's one in a pdf file

          Hmmm - looks like I have a rev. D board... schem says rev E

          Thought this would be an easy resistor swap - change R21 to a larger value and get some more gain. - ha

          Comparing my pedal to the schematic shows that I have a different board.
          TL074's instead of TL062, other component designations seem different as well. I'm beyond my present skill level.

          Any suggestions on how to proceed? just looking to add a little boost to the circuit.

            There are more than one version of this model. This is the only schematic I have, sorry it is the same one.

              No problem Enzo,

              Just another (somewhat annoying) learning opportunity for me.
              I emailed Dunlop but they have a "no schematics, no help with mods" policy.
              Which is understandable, at least from a business perspective.

                Hi,
                If you can find the equivalent resistor to "R36" on your unit, I think ?? that by bridging it with another reistor of say 100K (to start with, go higher or lower if too much or too little ) may do the trick of increasing gain............not sure what it will do to the filter though.

                  Hi,
                  I have just seen a reply to your post over at DIY forum, and the reply there is a better way than what I have suggested, so the 5K trimmer is the way to go at the output replacing the two fixed resistors.
                  I didn't see the voltage divider when I first looked at the schemo.
                  Another way to achieve control would be to lift either end of R44 and insert (in series) a fixed or variable resistor.

                    thanks - i'll look into that.

                      TL062 nehmen wenig strom

                      Tl062 vs Tl074 = mA < mA

                      Sound ist gleich

                        swap the resistor out with a pot and experiment! get fearless! be a modder, don't look back! I've never not made any of my pedals better somehow, and I learned as I did it.
