Jürgen Haible Wasp CV Filter LM13700 version
Chris Stelloh have been playing around with Jürgen Haible Wasp CV Filter and sent me two verified layouts.. In hi sown words: I had a chance to build up that LM13700 version of the Wasp Filter and found that using a much different value of potentiometer for the cutoff control made for a better filter … Read more
