I have a few months before bookings start in ernest, so I am going to tackle this beautiful work of art from the 1930's.
Together with my friend Ian Barter, we have been exploring vintage sounding equipment, the OP-6 was the last project in this vein .
The balancing update from the 86B has been incorporated but the rest of the audio path will be just as it was 83 years ago.
Obviously, chrome plated transformers are no longer available, but I will be using similar transformers to those I used in the OP-6 with good results. Here it is:-
This is the basic circuit:-
I have added modern attack, release and threshold controls to the circuit with a modified side-chain.
I shall be posting pics as soon as the construction starts.
