MOTM-320 is **ALIVE!!**
1999-09-25 by Paul Schreiber
Wow! It worked perfect first time! Need to adjust 1 resistor, and the correct caps are arriving Wednesday (special dielectric for low drift and low dissapation factor). Low end without a "driving" CV (just turning the panel pot) is about 1 cycle in 6 minutes. High end is about 12Hz. You "drive" it much lower and higer with external CV (over about a 12 octave range). The low end will be determined by the cap, but probably on the order of 1 cycle in 20 minutes (!!?!). The high end is about 2Khz. It is 1V/oct *untrimmed*. But is is temperature compensated. Although it has a zillion parts (80 resistors, 14 transistors, 7 ICs) it seemed to go rather quickly. PCB stuffing was about 2 hours. SSM2040 clone 4-pole LPF is in transit from JH. Will report when it arrives in about 1 week. SPICE plots look promising. And we added a neat feature that needs study, but will add a switchable "PHATTNESS" to it if it will work. Paul S.
