I have a couple of questions about the best way to change the gain on my Pimeta. Currently I have R3 = 1k, R4 = 10k, R5 = 3.32k, and R6 = 1.1M. Using Tangent's gain calculator this yeilds a gain of ~10.6.

Now I want to drop the gain to ~5 for my HD-580s. After palying around some more with the calculator it seems that I need to either change R3 to 2.2k or change R4 to 4.32k.

Of these two options which one is the best, or does it not mater which one I change? Do I need to worry about changing R5 or R6 when I change R3 or R4?

Thanks for your help,

Any experienced builders out there care to share their experiences or advice?

It's better to change R4 rather than R3, because that keeps the R3/R5 path consistent.

Thanks Tangent

I was hoping you would say that since I have a number of extra 4.32k resistors.
