Re: Fwd: j.a.g. and audio

2006-09-09 by Grant Richter

The only way I know that 60 Hz hum could get into the JAG is through the power supply. I 
suspect that your supply is over loaded.

One simple test: do you still hear a hum from the output if there is no input connected? If 
yes, that indicates a power supply hum for certain.

The JAG is a series of "trough" circuits. That is, it computes the minimum of a series of 
input functions. This is highly non-linear and produces an audio effect like ring 
modulation (inharmonic partials).
