<p>One thing I haven't seen mentioned is the diodes. Using silicon
diodes the breakdown voltage will be about 0.6-0.7V and for <span
class="mw-headline" id="Schottky_diode">Schottky diodes about
0.3V.<br>
</span></p>
<p><span class="mw-headline" id="Schottky_diode">Might want to
switch over to Schottky diodes then the clamping would be around
+/- 5.3V. I looked at some synth schematics and 1N5817 seems to
be a common one.<br>

What would you recommend as good not too expensive bipolar rail to rail op amp
I have several cv inputs mixed and I need to keep the sum between -5/+5v.
It needs to go as close as possible to the supply rails (-5/+5v) and have reasonable offset .
I initially used diodes but 0.8v is too much.
I’m kind of lost there are so many references .
Best,
Raphael
