Tape Echo Preamps

[Neil mcNasty]

You have to add a cut between pin 1 and 8 if you are using the 1044, and the 9v input must be entering at pin 8.

First of all , thank you for your great work and contribution!
I made a cut between pin 1 and 8 , but I still get a high pitched whine,
and the gain still doesn't work. Thank you for your help!

Oh yeah and I made the 9v input on pin 8 of the 1044S

hi,

with the echolette, there seems to be a problem:

right now TONE #1 is connected to GATE, which is a mistake

...........EDIT:
simplest correction: TONE #1 should come up by 1 row, from KF to KE
......................

I checked the  original schematic and in that, the tone is not connected to the tube/j-fet, but to the two ends of a 100k resistor...

I'm building this right now, so I'll get back shortly...

thanks! finally got it built using 7660s.
sounds exactly like my RE 101 preamp because its exactly the same!
used a 2SC1000GR. a great pre for adding warmth to digital synths
