Please let's make a short revision for anyone interested into get the working point of a voltage divider biased transistor: a) Vb = VccR2/R1+R2 b) Ie = (Vb - Vbe)/Re = Ic ; Vbe is tipically 0,3v for a Ge trany c) Vc = Vcc - IcRc If R1 = 470K, R2 = 68K, Rc = 10K and Re = 3K9 then: Vc = - 6.85 --> GOT...

It's a start. I would add an adjustable LPF on the output of it. This should be an active filter with a steep rolloff. To get the "organ" sounds you need to be able to mix in the octaves and then roll off the high-freq with an LPF. Then, make it controllable from an expression pedal as an...

Hello,

I personally love the "organ like" effect that can be obtained from the POG, perhaps could be interesting to discuss about the possibility of designing a non based DSP POG (complete analog device) starting from block diagrams.
