Take me away Herbie (please - just for a bit)

Reunited after 26 years, each of the members of the original Joshua Redman Quartet are too big to play under that name any more. Looking forward to the full album in July, but checking out a couple songs available.

Look what arrived today! Boards look wonderful. @mwl168, I did get an extra PSU board, I think from the 1.6mm batch? Is that OK? I am sure I can use it!

An oldie but goodie. Thanks Jim!

Earlier Now

Beethoven : Concerto pour piano n°3 ( Alice Sara Ott / Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France)

Cool album with a very cool jazz take on Teardrop by Massive Attack

It’s not just that, she obviously enjoys the music as much as I —as the audience member, not just me personally—do. I realize when I spoke, I was talking about her looks, but it’s really cute how joyous her playing is, too. I’m listening to her on Tidal right now, her playing is excellent.

Went down the Alice Sara Ott rabbit hole yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQObiL-ZYsw

HC´s number one rule: have more components in your warehouse than Mouser. Follow the trail of burned components Certified dead: CL resistor, r12, c2m1000170d, 2x bc557b, 2n3904. njm7915fa Changed as a precaution: Q7 10m90s. Q8 & Q9 ksc5026m and 24v diode. The rest of the components passed the test. Total: A few euros and a couple of hours.

Time to order some parts.. Thanks Michael.

@RudeWolf How did you adjust the input trimpot? Also, what’s the part number of the 47uf ceramic cap on the CFA3 are you using? Great looking build, btw. I’m thinking of building the CFA3 with shorter heatsinks (300mm).

You have not missed anything. I am just not working very fast 🙂

Watching/listening to a virtual concert set from Al1ce, Sandi Leeper, and a psychedelic group called lay/lie, which were completely unlike any of the other synthpop/EBM/electro cabaret bands that I've heard associated with Al1ce.

Sorry about getting back here late Here is the mk1 with the small plastic piece that goes over the solder pads.
