Default Mixing 4 audio channels to 3?

What does U4 do?


Provides a Vcc/2 local "ground" so I can use these op amps with a single
supply voltage.


More useful to let it oscillate as a square wave generator at 100kHz
or so, and rectify the output into a negative 15V rail. That way you
can run the op amps the way they are meant to be run.

Suggest a circuit...?

Thanks.

I was going to suggest that, since the mixer is going to be external
to the amp, he use a couple of wall-warts to get the dual supplies,
but I like your solution a lot better. :-)


Enough to suggest a nice circuit? ;-)

Thanks,
Dave

Sure, a 555 charge pump.

Got LTspice yet?

What is wrong with using an op-amp to "amplify" DC? Surely they are
"meant" to do that.

Isaac


I think he means that better audio results can be achieved by providing true
dual-voltage supplies and eliminating all coupling caps.

The "DC amplifier" is a fine design, but will result in inferior audio
performance due to the caps.

Now, if someone would volunteer such a negative voltage generator circuit...
;-)

Thanks.

Exactly. Much easier than all these halved supplies, coupling caps and
multiple grounds.

So, how -- exactly -- would you create that negative voltage?

Default Mixing 4 audio channels to 3?

Here's the whole thing; DC coupled mixer with a charge pump for a
negative supply:
[J. Fields]


Thanks John. Nice design.

What part is used for SW1-3? Purpose? If these are "anti-thump" turn-on
suppression switches, I think the main amp is similarly turn-on delayed. Of
course it's important to know the timing of these to avoid any window through
which the sub's cone could launch (or lunch?)...

Thanks,
Dave

A 4066 would work well.

The output delay, from turn-on, is determined by R11 and C5.

John, what's the reason behind choosing 6.2K for the feedback R on U3 (sub op
amp)? And if that is to be a pot (the original idea), is 10K appropriate?

There should be some kind of sub volume control...

Thanks,
Dave

John, what's the reason behind choosing 6.2K for the feedback R on U3 (sub op
amp)?


---
It makes the output of the sub channel approximately equal to the
outputs of the other channels with 1VPP inputs from the four sources.
---

And if that is to be a pot (the original idea), is 10K appropriate?


---
Yes, if all the other resistors are 10k.
---

There should be some kind of sub volume control...


---
That'll work.

Default Mixing 4 audio channels to 3?

C2, C3 are polarized, so I presume electrolytic?

What type should C1 be?

Thanks.

I put in polarized from habit, (and, BTW, C2 is in backwards, oops)
but there's no real reason for them to be.

Ceramic or polyester would also work.

Polyester or ceramic.

"mF" means microfarad?

Thanks.

No, "mF" means millifarad, = 1000µF

Default Mixing 4 audio channels to 3?

Here's the latest:
...
JF


Almost! :-)

I need some absolute attenuation for the sub's output and some relative to
the input signal.

In other words: I need to be able to change the input level to the mixer
(each of the 2 sound card's level will remain most of the time at max) so I
can change volume for each stereo input (from each sound card) and for the
*relative* level of the sub. The way it is now, the sub is outputting full
level (no pots in that circuit) and the L and R channels are variable.

So, the input to the sub mixer circuit needs to come from the input pots'
wipers, not directly from the input. And U3 needs variable gain.

The power amp (that this mixer is supplying the audio to) has a mute pin that
has a slow R-C tc on it, so we can eliminate S1-S3 and assoc. components, I
think.

Thanks!
