Subject: RE: [motm] 490 filter

From: "John Loffink" <jloffink@...>

I changed the resistor on mine, to 68K. It broke into oscillation too
soon to suit me, even though that was the accurately modeled response to
the filter Paul was duplicating. The only downside to the resistor
change is that with a signal input I cannot get as "pure" a sine wave
output from the filter at full resonance. There always seems to be some
bleed/distortion from the input signal on top of the sine wave. Without
an input this shouldn't be an issue.
