Re: powering Serge on +/- 15v

2009-07-21 by deadcustomers

Thanks Ken, this is great!

I went ahead and powered those modules and another panel on +/- 15v and it all seems to be working. In case it's useful to anyone, here's a list of the modules I've tested:

VCFS
VCFQ
Dual Phaser
Frequency Shifter
Wave Multipliers
Wilson Analog Delay
Dual VCA
Dual Channel Stereo Output
Dual Audio Mixer

Modules that are untested but nothing blew up:
Control Module
Preamp Detector
