Hello, I'm new to the forum and building my first GSSL clone. I have it all put together and I am interested in using two Omron 12V relays that I had left over from another project. One to switch the "Turbo" sidechain and one to switch a HP filter. Since I used 2180's, the relays are glued on the main board and fit nicely in the space where the dist. trim pot for the left VCA would have gone. Conveniently placed right in line for the S/C connections. I have the audio connected properly. I just have a few questions about power supply. Can someone please help?
1. Where is the best place in the circuit to pull the +12V from? The +12V @ the 10-pin connector?
2. Can the (-) terminal connect to ground (like the LED's)?
3. Can both +12V terminals connect parallel from one feed or do I need resistors between the two relays? 47R?
I have IN4004 diodes paralleled across the DC terminals, as suggested in the datasheet.
4.Should I also be using a bypass capacitor? .1uF?
Much thanks!
