G.TEN 500 series graphic eq (V4 revision) 18.05.23 back in stock

Hello,
Is there a Mouser order number for the bypass switch? I almost finished my second unit, but I can't find the switch anywhere. Must have misplaced it somewhere.

This e-switch should work. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/E-Switch/PBH4UEENAGX?qs=5gBG3L055oMixeQf4bmFww==

Any way to be notified if/when there are restocks on these kits? Any chance of a bare PCB/Panel option in the meantime?

anyone seen an update on availability for these?

Hi folk!
We are pleased to announce that the new batch of G.TEN is ready for shipment.
Available here:
Equalizers
G.TEN V4 is the fourth reissue.
In this revision we tried to take into account all the nuances and requests of those who bought and assembled the device earlier, as well as our own ideas for its improvement. Couple resistors was changes for more common values, pcb layout was optimised a little as well as output transformer connection was changed. Schematicly V4 is the same as V3.


Cheers,
Igor

Hi, just finished one of my V4 units - everything seems to be working except I'm getting a -6 or so db drop in signal even with the unit bypassed and a -1 db drop with the unit engaged (sine wave at 1k). Any idea what could be causing the level discrepancy?

Thanks,

Ryan

Also I was curious if there's a resistor that defines the brightness of the indicator LED- mine is very bright compared to my other 500 series units next to it and it would be great to dim it down a bit

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi, please disregard the levels question - I think it was something funky to do with channel linking switches on my 500 series rack - I seem to have fixed it. Still interested in LED bringhness adjustment though if possible

Hi Igor,

I sent an email but wasn't sure if you prefer a post here in case this helps others. I just ordered 2 x G ten units V4. I had two Capi 2503 output transformers which have more leads than the new G ten PCB has available.

There 2503 has Brown, orange red , purple blue, green and yellow and grey

I’m wondering how I should solder these in?

Thanks!

 

[Bobby Baird]

Yes, curious about this as well. Looks like the brown primary is being used, but the secondary blue, yellow, violet? What should be done with other leads?

Are the g.ten kits available again? They're still marked as sold out on the site.

 

[paullambert]

Yes, curious about this as well. Looks like the brown primary is being used, but the secondary blue, yellow, violet? What should be done with other leads?

Here is the answer I got for the capi 2503
In order to get the correct trx wiring you need:
connect VIO + GRN together and connect VIO to board pin
connect BLU + GRY together and connect BLU to board pin
connect RED + ORG and isolate them
connect BRN wire to board pin
connect YEL wire to board

Will these be available in the near future?
