Hello,
somhow I am stupid.
Could please some explain me, how the filter of the SH-5 works.
See: http://fa.utfs.org/diy/roland_filters/SH5.jpg
I can recognize the low pass ladder in the right half, but what kind of
filter is the hipass in the left half?
Also it is not really clear how the switching between the filtermodes is
done:
Lowpass is clear:the input signal is sent to the ladder and the
non-inverting input of IC506 (mixing OpAmp) is set to ground.
Highpass is input signal is sent to the highpass (or to what I assume
that the hipass is?). But then ... the non-inverting input of IC506 is
connected to the output of the highpass but the lowpass still will get
some signal (and resonance also seems to be done by the lowpass).
For Bandpass there is no difference to the Highpass setting, but IC506
is only a Buffer (non-inverting input is no longer connected to the mode
selector switch).
Mostly I think, if I would understand the hipass circuit I'd understand
the switching too.
