Hi All:
Does anyone know where I can get a pair of JLH Ripple Eater boards? If not, can I get on a waiting list?
Thanks very much, BG

If you're willing to home etch some boards there are several versions of the artwork kicking about.

There are no immediate plans for another batch of PCBs as another 200 were made available recently.. Alex users.tpg.com.au/gerskine/greg/default.htm

Maybe some previous buyers have some spares?
Or, perhaps an updated version in the future. Development is still ongoing AFAIK.

Thanks very much for the replies... I may try to etch my own, got some clad board on the shelf... but those boards in the documentation look SO much nicer than anything I could come up with.

The latest PCBs from Greg with 2oz. copper look fabulous, as did previous versions. It's a shame that the PCB maker didn't think to ask if Greg wanted glossy black on the top as well. Regards Alex

hi bgilbertsound,
Thanks for your interest in the JLH Ripple Eaters. Are you after the single or dual version?
How about a little information on what you are going to do with them, it might sway someone with a few spares to let them go.
Also, where are you located, the cost of packaging and postage is a real issue in Australia, it can cost twice as much for the postage as it does for a pair of PCBs.
regards Greg

I think they are likely to be used for professional sound recording,(?) and the member is in the U.S.A. If the member had been in Australia I would have sent him a couple of my remaining spares. It's quite a hassle for me to send a couple of PCBs overseas as it means a special trip to the P.O. and often standing in a queue, a customs declaration form to be filled in etc. with the postage costing far more than their worth. With Au members I can simply shove a PCB in an envelope, put on a stamp that I already have ,and drop it in a nearby Post Box. Kind Regards Alex

Hi Greg:
Alex is right, I have a small studio at home. I don't really make much money at it, so it isn't as "professional" as it should be, but I try. My main work is location sound for video and film, I'm a freelancer. I'm always trying to build stuff... sometimes it even works, which is REALLY exciting. My studio is a "semi-analog" setup, with a computer for multitracking, but a Soundcraft 800 for mixdown and an Otari MTR10 2-track tape machine for the final output. The Soundcraft has had LOTS of work done to it, and I'm about 80% finished with a recap and bypassing job. Still can't get the solo logic to work, though.
I'm also a big vinyl fan for music made until about mid-1985. But for practicality and preserving the discs, I transfer everything to MP3 and do 80% of my listening that way. My records don't tend to wear out.
The main project for these will probably be a preamp for the turntable. Haven't decided on a circuit yet, but it'll probably be discrete transistors. If you're really curious, you can read the whole story on my website. Just google "BGilbertSound"
Thanks BG
