The LM13700 is a bonafide classic synth chip, plus it’s cheap and *still* available decades after it was originally introduced. Ok, it’s no longer the state of the art, and its noise and distortion figures are pretty poor, but that’s actually a part of its charm. It’s definitely got that “vintage sound”. So let’s have […]
I typically use the 12-bit MCP4822 DAC to produce a CV for the SSM2164 (or CoolAudio V2164, it’s the same thing) . This is a good, cheap combination. However, the 4822 produces an output of 0-4.095V, whereas the 2164 needs 0-3.3V. It is possible to use a simple voltage divider to reduce the voltage to […]
There are a number of situations where it is useful to be able to crossfade between two different signals with a single control. Examples might be a wet/dry control on a delay effect, or a waveform knob on an oscillator that goes from ramp to square continuously. The simple and obvious way to do this […]
