4 Band Equalizer

The following scheme diagram is the four 4 band equalizer circuit. Equalizer device is generally used to improve the fidelity of sound, to emphasize certain instruments, to remove undesired noises, or to create completely new and different timbres. This circuit operated with 12VDC symmetrical / dual polarity power supply. Power supply circuit provided on above… Read More »

Basic Tone Control

This is a very basic circuit diagram of 3 band tone control. This basic tone control circuit was originally intended for home audio use, but should be able to be hacked into an effect circuit with very minor modification. Resistance value of resistor R1 is left up to the user depending on gain needs, R2… Read More »

A pair of red… Read More »

Mini MW Transmitter

The following is a circuit of a simple AM transmitter. This circuit is available in kit form and can work well since the kit available on market. This circuit uses a combination of transistors SA101 and SA103, as the modulation signal amplifier.

Angry Beard III Electric Guitar Effect

Here the circuit diagram of Angry Beard III Effect for Electric Guitar. Build your own guitar effect because the guitar effect kits on the market are very expensive. The OP-AMP can be any single low noise op-amp, the original NE5534 used. The 2N44 is likely to be replaced by PNP germanium transistors other without much… Read More »

Passive Surround

This is the scheme diagram of passive surround circuit. Passive surround doesn’t need any active components and power supply to make the circuit works. The circuit just need the combination of resistors and electrolytic capacitors. Circuit Notes: This passive surround circuit MUST be connected after power amplifier module. Use full range type of loudspeaker. Do… Read More »

140W Power Amplifier

The following is a circuit of a power amplifier 140W. This Circuit using 741 IC-based circuit opAmp as strengthening early before the final strengthening by four transistors thereafter. Make sure you use a heatsink on the transistors to reduce excess heat in the transistors. Power supply used is the type of dual polarity power supply… Read More »
