Hi Guys,

Is there any compendium on Inductor core material and the effect in a filter
design?

I am curious what impact different alloys have on overall response of the
design. I assume saturation varies upon the type of ferrous material used.

Proximity should have minimal effect is cased in mu metal or other metal
case.

I should have asked Harald Bode when I worked for him back in Tonnawanda ,
NY. early 1970

We were converting his original inductor based filter vocoder to a discreet
analog design that many of you know from Moog Music days.

I wish I still had one of those units, they are quite rare items now.

Regards,

Terry
