Hi folks,
I see 1073 clones mentioned, and 1290/1272 card resotration all the time in the forum, but has anyone ever taken a shot at a simple 1272 diy?
I only ask 'cause I'm so in love with my N72. Yes, I could build a couple more of the channels as kits from seventh circle, but diy-ing a couple seems like a great way to learn. I'm thinking I can simplify things greatly, building a dedicated (b+/-, 48v) power supply so nullifying the need for local regulation. Also, I wouldn't need phase. After that, it looks relatively simple...with the exception of sourcing the proper transformers. I'm not in a huge hurry though (doing lots of reading to get ready), so I can wait for some surplus transfos or until someone is selling a couple of i/o.
Basically, I'm just trying to do a bonehead version of the 1272, 'cause I just want the tone, no extras, and I want to understand it. Ireally don't think I'll ever need a jumper to "float the ground." Also, I pretty much want to take whatever schematics I can find, including Tim's and adapt them to this project. Please accept my apology if this is "bad show" in the world of DIY...I'm totally new to this. But, I don't see the issue (off the top of my head) if I'm not building for commercial purposes and have no intention of competing financially. Ever. Plus, I'm also operating under the assumption that if it's published on the internet, it's fair game. Again, maybe I'm wrong. I intend no disrespect to credited designers.
This might even be a great way to do an online version of an electronics tutorial, slowly walking our way through this over the course of a couple of months.
Any newbies into this? if we can get a crew together to tackle this, we might even be able to do the group buy for trannys...?
Thanks!
