MOTM

There are probably 25 different ways to make a ring mod. Certainly, I plan
an "active" version
without diodes and transformers. As far as "reducing the carrier", that's
the *hard part* because
that usually depends on factors I can't control (internal Vbe matching of
OTA pairs, etc) and
can't be trimmed out "perfectly".

For an awesome example of suppressed carrier on a Ring Mod, you will
have to pick up a Klang Werk!

Oh, let's not go down that road. The MOTM-110 has 42dB of suppression. I
measured the RM
in a Fenix, and it was 28dB (remember, every 6dB is half of the leakage!). I
measured an ARP2600,
and it was 33db. So I think the '110 is pretty darn good (not that the
Blacet isn't).

I hesitated to mention this in the first place because I didn't want 
discussion to get fixated on that portion of my remark. If it can be 
improved in a new design, great.

Again, my chief concern is getting a more radical sound - warm, rude, 
whatever.
