Great job on the build Milos!

I haven't zoomed the images in the links. What are the switches for? It looks like some are ground lift and the other group bypass or mutes?

Miko - My vote is a dual mono/MS Pico compressor. No one's done that one here.

Milos - Thanks for the test data. The 1646 line driver doesn't have as good a gain accuracy as the THAT1240 and 1246 line receivers do. You might swap the M and S 1646s and pick-up (or lose) a few dB. Loading by external gear will also have a great effect even if they are exactly unity gain. It does...

OK, maybe it was Express PCB. I never use that part of it 'cause you do the really hard stuff which is layout.

BTW I think that may have been the Orcad (several versions ago) that had Digi-Key integration.

Do I recall a design package that is affiliated with Digi-Key? IIRC it had libraries for DIgi-Key parts and used Digi-Key PNs to generate the BOM.

Interesting to see what Mouser will do.

Doug:

The second and third from-the-last connection examples here http://us.tdk-lambda.com/lp/ftp/specs/C ... df#page=15 seem to indicate that the input and outputs are floating and that you can common them or use it to provide negative output.

In typical radials, the metal can is not physically attached to either lead. I ran some experiments on large-value (Cgain) caps and found large differences in capacitance from the can to the terminals. (You would expect this but I wanted to know.) My interest was Cgain capacitors in preamps. At hig...

We figured that input and output phantom protection of line-level stages was a lot to throw in. There may be a sequel. To answer Roger's question, the published 1646 protection using bridge to rails, works fine. One thing I have found with the 1646 is that OutSmarts makes the part tolerant to stored...

John - I edit a lot of commercial modern music (head/tail trims, normalization etc.) You'd be surprised at the number of entire mixes, or elements in mixes, that have it upside down on the CD. We may now agree that pin 2 is really hot, but that doesn't solve the problem. The other day I was listenin...
