Re: Doepfer A-188-1d 4096-stage BBD: chip-swapping help

2013-06-04 by therpocc

You need to divide clock by 32. You may try to feed the clock to clock divider module or use two audio-dividers in serie. If you do not have it or can't build it around CMOS 4024, 4020 or similar IC, you will not be able to do it with soundcard-based oscilloscope.

I can probably find a VST oscilloscope which can do the trick, but I will still need a Frequency Meter to adjust the VCO Offset if the maximum clock frequency of the new BBD circuit differs from the maximum clock frequency of the old BBD circuit.
