Ladder Filter Blues

[Duane R Balvage]

        Hello everyone!


      I've got a simple question ... Has anyone built the diode ladder filter

   that is NOT from the '303 - I think it might be the AKS copy?

   The reason I ask is because I built it from the schematic from "?'s"

   (I don't remember his name) homepage, and I can't seem to get it to

   work quite right - namely, the resonance control doesn't make it self-

   oscillate, and it isn't very "rezzy" sounding even at high resonance

   settings! Anyone know of any mistakes in the schematic? Also, if

   anyone knows which filter I speak of, anybody know of a "common"

   transistor to use in place of the BC### transistors it calls for?

   I just used "garden variety" NPN's (2N3904/2N2222), and figure that

   this *might* be the culprit! ANY information is welcome!!!!


                          thanx in advance -


                                       -Duane
