The search on the right panel does not include this build as it is now.<br />Cheers!Jorgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16491964855826091205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-51634524599117271442020-11-16T11:14:23.464+00:002020-11-16T11:14:23.464+00:00Is there a wiring diagram for the 3p4t rotary?

On the layout the only lugs that are mentioned are lugs 1-3 on the board, 4 not connected and A to ground. What about all the other lugs?

When the stages switch (number 4) is in 4-3, 4-6 position there is no effect signal. Furthermore, there's always (despite the position of stages) a ticking noise in the background, which gets faster and louder the more you increase the speed knob. The depth knob has a very weak effect on the signal. Everything else is working perfectly.<br />I double checked all connections, LM13700 and transistors but can't find any fault.<br /><br />Is the stages and depth knob working in your built? Does anybody have the same problem with the ticking noise?samothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05313486840024057156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-48415875965797802962020-06-11T00:10:12.998+01:002020-06-11T00:10:12.998+01:00Ha!
