Hi
Does anyone have a schematic for this :?: - I think , I have the basic circuit drawn from the two gutshots found in the Demeter Tremulator thread, but not sure of the resistor or capacitor values.
By the way - it is NOT a clone of the Craig Anderton compressor :wink:
ANY information most gratefully accepted. I will produce a project when finished.
cheers

Any update on this??
I just was at the Demeter website.
The builds sound pretty good but, pricey.

I ran across the site and thought I had seen you messing with this circuit awhile ago and just thought I'd ask.
I'm a Comp guy and always interested in another! 8)

Many thanks, but $259 for that :roll:

I must admit that I read it as "copulator" at first!!!

I believe you can get one of these for US $199 if you shop around :wink:
By the way - it is a very well made pedal, with quality components - no carbon comp mojo here :lol: The case is very solid and will last a lifetime.
One problem though - it has one of those awful 3.5 mm mini phone jack sockets fitted for external DC power :roll:
It uses two LF353N dual opamps too :wink:

Rather than use the trim pot, could you just use a 1k1 resistor?

Thanks for the amazing work!!
