Good work man!
Yes I am crazy.......but that is nothing special............thank you for compliment
and it is nothing compared to work of analogguru,Bajaman DirkH,Soulsonic,Torchy,modman...and many others posting here..............so enjoy....I will post component valyes soon..........
have a nice day.....

here are component values.....
pot PCB is bigger then original becouse I have onlly radioohm pots........
next is boxing it up, and that is problem.....

thanks
it works nice with regular guitar,and with bass....
...if you have schematic you can see
fiew parts are different for guitar, so it is
not hard to convert it.......

Just saw in the other MS thread about the changes
Do you have any clearer component values? Your drawings look great but I just can't make them out very well
Thanks again!

use this to compare numbers......there is one mistacke....PCB with pots....down to the right ..resistor is marked 33k...should be 3k3.....
and use schematic........this was clone of old unit.....AC powered

hvala himister
pre oko godinu dana.....bio mi je original na popravci.......pa sam ga rastavio i precrtao u sitna creva.......mnooogo je skup(potovi i CA3094).....ali sljaka do jaja...i niko ga nije iscrtao do tada

bila je jedna varijanta ali iz delova tako da je bilo nekoliko plocica....i nije licilo na original............eto pa uzivaj
translation...
almost year ago.......I had original one for repair......it is expencive build...becouse of pots and hard to find CA3094-s.....but it works awesome......before this there was one project of microsynth,but diferent layout..........not like original.......this is done and running with some mods...(octave UP..switchable, and foot pedal mode.......also there is one more foot SW to engage or disengage auto filter triggering........)
it took some time, but I was like mad untill I'v finished it.........
next is tubevibe...and boss CE-1.......
cheers

control board
lower right side of pcb.....resistor is 3k3......my mistake -I wrote 33k.........but you can see real one on picture and it have three red stripes........3k3
that is all folks

Isn't three red stripes 2k2 ?
3k3 would be orange-orange-red, and 33k would be three orange stripes.

only 4 components vary from each version. so we could add a switch to choose between bass and guitar synth.

Microsynth problem - start frequency point is fixed by start frequency slider, so when triggered the sweep will always rise/fall to this point, which can be boring
Better to control start frequency point from note strength - not easy. Others are trying to do this.
