Ok, it was stated a while ago on AH that to change the BD sound
of the TR-606, you need to screw with R58 and R59. Someone said that by
adding a 680k resistor in series with R59 (also 680k), while adding a
3.3k resistor in parallel with R58 (Also 3.3k), one could change the
output of the circuit from 60Hz with Q of 10 to 60Hz with a Q of 20, thus
increasing the signal level and decay time. What I am proposing to do is
add a 3.3k resistor to R58 as planned, and add a 1M pot in parallel with
a 2.2M 1% resistor.. (assuming no tolerance, that = 687.5k...) Now, for
all you circuit theory types (which I am not, I merely exploit the
simplest of all formulas =)):
Will this allow continuous control of the BD decay? Will it work
out alright or will it be too sloppy? Any input/suggestions? Thanks!
