DC CF MIXER
Just for fun, I converted my 5F8A CF to a DC CF arrangement and immediately noticed an enormous amount of compression. I like the evenness of volume, but the transient is slammed. This might not make sense, but is it possible to design a DC CF mixer by adding a parallel resistor from the V2B grid to cathode like as in the attached drawing? What values would you recommend? I want to pass the transient but mix the DC CF compression with it. The other obvious question is, Is this overkill and should I just use a pedal?
Thanks,

Just plug it in, man.
Re: DC CF MIXER
No surprise I'm thinking about this wrong. OK, so the parallel resistor only bypasses the second triode, so not useful. What about increasing the size of the 10K resistor?
Just plug it in, man.
Re: DC CF MIXER
I just through a 220K across the 100K V2B cathode resistor to make 68K. Wow.
Just plug it in, man.
