Re: Wah inductor source

"the availability of pre-wound transformers with a secondary winding opens the way to some experimentation that might be interesting. Feeding a current source through the secondary winding gives a way to introduce a magentic bias on the cores, and may let us move the iron to a place that has some slope to the BH curve as well as even harmonic generation"
 
 
 
 
I picked up a couple of the transformers at R-S yesterday as well. I agree that this is a good area for experimentation. I think it might be interesting to shoot a sine wave through the inductor and measure the distortion components, with and without a micro-current flowing through the secondary. I guess you'd have to do that with a Fasel to get a target profile to emulate.

I have the function keys programmed with various strings via a keyboard macro program that I have and just got into the habit of using the sig when I was running my message board. I doubt that there's many visitors to this forum who haven't been to both our web pages.
