My Build notes for the LA191 filter.
It's not a Buchla Module.
It follows the same size & format & the circuits used are I understand based on Don's schematics.
I would love Buchla USA to make a official 191 filter.
Until that day, this will have to do.
These are not official build notes Just my personal pics to help trouble shoot.
The vintage Buchla 191 is a very rare filter. I'd love to see or purchase a real one.
Maybe Buchla USA will come out with one ... lets hope.
Anyway, I'm building this for a friend.
The PCB (LA 67) looks great. An easy build I think.
aLL through hole.
Parts are standard .. all discrete.
Some of the transistors need to be matched.
The switch is a bit confusing.
My wiring guide
These pics are the top section (its upside down in the photo)
nOW it gets confusing ... the bottom bit
tHE heatshrink seemed like a good idea at the time, however, it later made my job harder as the hole the switch fits into was too small.
got it in ,,,, but was a real mess.
My apologies to the future techo who needs to service this.
THey are actually LEDs not incandesent lamps
(Incandescent Panel Mount Indicators Panel Mount Indicator Lamps)
A bit of a mess...
But the filter seems to work.
Anyway, I have no idea how this stacks up to a real 191.
