Hi hi hi, Head-Fi!
I'm taking an electric engineering course and have decided to take on the task of analyzing the schematic of a DBX 160x compression unit. I have a few questions about how this circuit works...
The circuit can be found here: ftp://ftp.dbxpro.com/pub/PDFs/discon...0Schematic.pdf
The electrolytic capacitor called C154 is really bothering me. I am thinking it may have something to do with setting the timing constant, which later becomes important when dealing with the release controls of the circuit... but I'm pretty much at a loss here.
Also, what exactly is JP108 doing??
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I know there's a lot of knowledgeable people in this forum, so I would be enthusiastic to any ideas/suggestions.
Thanks!
