MOTM-120 complete!

2000-01-03 by Brousseau, Paul E (Paul)

I finished the MOTM-120 last night, finally!  I think I did everything
correctly (not without burning fingertips and mixing up wires along the
way), but I'm not entirely sure.  The signals I'm sending are coming
directly from a Nord Modular, so they're not the full 10V peak-to-peak that
the MOTM is expecting.  In Sub mode, if I turn any of the suboctave knobs
beyond 2, I hear a lot of buzzing.  I think this is expected, and it just
sounds like buzzing because the original signal is getting drowned out.  Is
this correct?  In Cross mode, sometimes I still hear a sustained signal
after I stop sending any input to IN-A.  Is this also attributable to weak
signals?  Tonight I'm going to plug a Mackie mixer inline to boost the
signal and find out more.

--PBr, anxiously awaiting pre-amps...
