how to modify a A-188-1 bbd

how to modify a A-188-1 bbd

2010-11-15 by martindx100

how do i get wider range on the delay clock dial,
without changing the input cv scale?
are there any resistors limiting the range of the dial only?

The delay clock dial should have an extremely wide range from the factory
(down to clearly audible clock noise and a "destroyed" sounding audio
output). The upper clock value is limited because of the max. clock
frequency for the BBD circuits (typ. 200 kHz).

That's too narrow. Probably the exponential generator circuit (CA3096) is
defective and has to be replaced. As the CA3096 is mounted into a socket it
is very easy to replace the circuit. Please contact the
dealer/representative where you purchased the module. We will add a CA3096
free of charge to the next consignment to the dealer/representative in
question (from your message I cannot see your home country). If you are not
able to replace the circuit the module has to be sent in.

Please tell me your address off list (hardware@doepfer.de). I'll send you a
new CA3096 for free.
