Ever wondered what’s the difference between your self-built LED-LDR devices and industrial produced vactrols?

This is a small but powerful device to use with your modular synthesizer. On each hand side there is one force sensing resistor turning applied pressure into a steady CV output.

Light AMP
Light AMP

A small amp into an old broken desktop lamp run off by a 9V battery. Output is 0,5W with a switchable gain factor between 20/200. Ideal for testing coil instruments with low output level but also very suitable as a small guitar amp. 0,5W is more than you think!

Zauner Ultratight

Here’s my SSL Clone, the Zauner Ultratight. Schemos can be found at Gyraf’s webpage. Mine has the Turbo Board installed which makes it switchable between stereosum and dual-mono (“true stereo”) compression.

Zauner Ultrageil 4
Zauner Ultrageil 4

I finished my DIY 4-way mixer today. Active mixing of four channels with gain and a small level control LED and some nice big knobs from an old broken echo/delay machine. The name is a side blow to all the shitty Behringer products starting with “Ultra…”.
