Re: [motm] HELP with MOTM pedal interface and voltage source

2001-02-09 by J. Larry Hendry

Hey, Now I don't feel like a total stooge.  Right.  It dictates the 113
stereo jack instead of the 112.  The only time a mono plug would be OK is
when inserting an external CV or audio.  Then the normalized CV source gets
shorted harmlessly to ground through a minimum of 20K resistor in the
voltage source.  When I get time (after the current run of panel and 822 PCB
orders) I will build one up and see how I like it.

I tell you it's brilliant and I never thought of it before !

(The only drawback is that you *need* the Ring at all,
i.e. it won't work with mono jacks.)
