ive been playing through my tube reamer recently, and well, its just not driving as much as it should. i listened to the sample at ROG, and my definately dont drive that much. I dont know what it could be i used all the right cap values and stuff
*sighs* any ideas?
Check around the diodes. Make sure they are oriented correctly and connected to the signal path as they should be. It sounds like the diodes are the culprits.
i checked the diodes, they seem to be fine, i swapped em out for new ones just in case, same problem tho. howerver on closer inspection of the circuit i now notice that the 47"pf" cap is actually 47"nf" (thats what you get for soldering late!)
and the 0.033 capis actually a 0.0033
could this be the problem maybe?
Large differences like that will make it sound 'large different'.
Put in the right values and see what you think/
