It's unclear from the schematic. I am using 2 9v batteries and creating virtual ground from the midpoint between them.
Do I tie input ground, output ground, and virtual ground all together? That's what I've been doing, but I get hum in the headphones. DC offset isn't *too* high, 17mV/28mV.
Also, I am using the matching RS pot. From the back my current hookups look like this:
HTML Code:
My batteries are both good. One has 9v the other 8.9v. Both alkaline.
I've tried building this on plugboard and on protoboard, both versions have the same hum. Obviously I'm not doing something right.
Any pointers would be appreciated. I can post pics if you think they'd be useful.
