[sdiy] Roland System 700 VCF

[Veronica Merryfield]

Is there a resistor on the output of IC1 that is missing in the schematic?

The output of the CA3080 (IC1) is fed straight into the non-inverting input of IC2 and is meant to sum the inputs too. As drawn, IC1 output would completely dominate the input to IC2. The other stages show a 15K in the output of a stage so I am guessing the schematic is in error. Or I missed something.

Does this mean that for the filter to NOT oscillate it needs overall negative feedback from the output to the input? I think this is being done in the resonance control in the Roland circuit...
