Hi
I built my Dlator some time back and it has become an essential piece of gear, along with the TC G# fx.
It has the series/parallel circuit by Klaus (#2 layout) with help from Tom, and a bypass, all very useful.
Have any significant changes/refinements been made since then?
The mixer resistors are 100K into 220K.
Your thoughts would be very welcome.
Thanks
Rog

I think the basic design works so well that people leave it alone.
Just get the voltages right and rock on!

Some, including me, up the voltage divider on the cathode follower from 1.5K/10K to 1.8K/18K. Gives a little more headroom on the follower.

Hi Bill, thanks for that, I'm running 1K8 and 27K, so no problems with headroom there
