2399 triple splashback delay

hahaha yes! well may as well :D. it was on the to do list to figure out a full wet mode for another project. so what better time to do it! it opens up more possibilities, for instance if you make fully wet, you can chain them to make infinitely long delay time for instance. which is a feature im working into a module its getting pretty outlandish. not gunna be a small one!!!

Being small is clearly a non-goal of Kosmo :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Just prototyped this with an op amp raising the level from pin 8 on the TL074, and it’s good. Based on CGS DC mixer, with 5V and a trimmer as one input, pin 8 as the other input. Once the range is adjusted a little you can get it to make some quite interesting sounds - basically it can add a fast delay to garbage mode, and it’s fun to switch in and out.

It captures that “bees chasing a snorting pig inside a metal tank” sound that so many people are after these days…

oh cool! yes 5 is enough! :smiley: glad the pigs are squealing! so are you piggybacking a tl072 on the back or something?

Yes, a TL072 on a bit of vero board. I’d say it’s not an essential modification, but it is quite cool and the extra switch makes my panel layout neater, so it’s going to stay. Thanks for the tip!

I just need to tidy the wiring up a bit and make the final panel now - I think it’s there in terms of functionality.

very nice !

when for 1 hundred delays ?
How many delays is to many ? :grinning:

Just finished building mine. I guess it’s normal that it gets loud as hell in garbage Mode?

yeah it can get rather raunchy! check the volume of whats going in, maybe turn that up a tad if you can if you want the levels to be similar. the feedback is very hot. a good way to counteract it is to put it before a VCA for instance or a module with a bit of a saturating character if you want it more level. that way when it gets noisy itll not get louder, itll just saturate more.

Here’s a crudely altered version of the schematic showing the two modifications discussed previously…

I built this aaaand… I am not sure if it works as intended xD. Is it normal that I get a massive feedback when I turn splashback 1 too far up? I did not solder C22. The LEDs are only blinking when I turn spashback 1 quite high… I mean, it sounds cool!! But I was wondering a little bit :laughing:
(no modifications done here)

nice Dave!!! mind if I link the image on the delay page???

does delay one feedback more than the other two? if so it may be some soldering issue! or a misplaced resistor. maybe check the soldering around the capacitors nearest the first pt2399. it has the potential to be a bit loud at times thats part of the delays nature but if the first feedback is more than the other two then its a soldering issue.

if you have any of the delays mixes on max, and feedback after 3 quarters it will feedback into a soft wallow of the sound of “WUGGGHHHHH” but anything before those settings it wouldn’t get into that

Sure, no problem at all!

thanks! just to let you know: i prefer the yellow pcbs over the black one very much, it’s much easier to see the ground connections on the yellow ones. so if there will be a big version of the delay - pleeeease do it in yellow :wink:
btw will there be a bigger version? still not sure if i should mod this one with the dry kill switch.

missed this somehow thats awesome! how many panels are behind that? 1? or 2?
