  • Help to check LFO section

    Hello,

    I've just finished the build of a Stereo Chorus unit.

    http://jhaible.com/legacy/subtle_cho...le_chorus.html

    And I need to check if the LFO section and mode selection switch works properly, because I don't hear any changes between modes. When I change the mode I hear more "emphasis" on the effect. I attach a video. I don't think this sound is normal at all.

    I inject 1khz to the input.

    I attach a the LFO section and the rotary switch wiring section.

    Anybody can help me? please?​

    Maybe use a square wave test signal, as this doesn't contain only one frequency.

      This is with a 40hz square wave.

        Sorry, don't like to register. So can't see the vid.

        Why 40Hz? Thats too low for guitar and guitar speakers. I would use 400Hz.

            Ok, no modulation.

              no,

              the bbd's works fine with another chorus. I have a problem somewhere...

                Do you have a pulsing voltage at both pins 1 of U3A (Schmitt trigger) and U2A (integrator)?

                  Main Board ( vintage build )

                  MC1458 U3A:

                  pin 1: 14,26V

                  TL082 U2A:

                  pin 1: -13,72v

                  no pulsating

                    Are +/- supply voltages good at pins 4/8?

                      yes,

                      pin 4, -15v and pin 8, +15v on both ic's

                        One of these opamps might be bad.

                            Replaced the MC1458 U3 with tl062 and now I have pulsating in pin 1 of TL082 U2A but fixed voltage on pin 1 of the tl062 U3.
