thanks especially to Dr. Timothy Stinchcombe, Harry Bissell, Ken Stone et al, I have a proper tuning method for the rotary switches on my sequencer!!!! :D :D :D<br><br>All of the fiddlings trying to get one method to work properly, but never QUITE getting there - was frustrating as heck!
<br><br>Now - thanks to combining Dr. Tim's suggestion of the Constant Current Source combined with Ken Stone's LM329 6.9V reference - I have a proper tuning structure for the rotaries! :D<br><br>I just finished hooking up the CCS after the LM329
6.9V reference to one rotary switch - tuned it up to 1V/octave, and it's flawless on each of the 12 notes. :) Barely a bit of beating - but I tuned in a rush. With a slight bit of fine tuning, it'll be beat free across the octave. :)
<br><br>I'm off to hook up the other 3 rotary switches, and will be posting a new WAV sample to my website - with the 4 rotaries playing a changing sequence - this time - PROPERLY tuned! Haha. :D<br><br>Once the rest of the system is put together, I'll be posting a schematic of it for everyone, on my webpage. :) Hopefully others may find it useful for building, as well. :)
<br><br>Again everyone who has helped greatly over the past 10 days or so - thank you IMMENSELY! :D :D Credit for each is posted on the webpage already as well. :)<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Take care,<br>Warmth and Peace,
