Ampeg SB-12 Portaflex adapted for use as a bass overdrive stompbox - When one thinks of classic bass amps, the brand name "Ampeg" often comes to mind. Their SVT models were very popular and still are today. Slightly less known Ampeg combo-type models were also made, called "Portaflex" amps. In "travel" form, these appeared to be simple closed back speaker cabs with a pair of chrome latches on either side of the top panel. When one released the latches, the top panel could be removed and flipped over to reveal a tube head unit. One simply plugged in the attached speaker cable and the amp was ready to go. The unique design led to the nickname of "Flip Tops." __ Contact: holler @ runoffgroove.Com
Amplified Ear - This circuit, connected with 32 Ohms impedance mini-earphones, can detect very remote sounds. Useful for theatre, cinema and lecture goers: every word will be clearly heard. You can also listen to your television set at a very low volume, avoiding to bother relatives and neighbours. __ Contact: IQ Technologies
Amplified ear for surveillance - To listen old vinyl LP’s in a correct sounding on a sassy with dynamic cartridge you need a circuit, named RIAA corrector. This circuit you can find in old amps, but it isn’t embedded in home cinema equipments or amplifiers can be obtained nowadays. Also, if you want to archive your vinyl LP’s in your computer it is necessary to use this RIAA corrector.
Amplifier (LM3886) - So what the heck is a Gainclone? Originally, the term Gainclone meant a clone of the 47 Laboratory Gaincard. The 47 Laboratory Model 4706 Gaincard is understood to have the following general features __ Designed by Michael LaLena

Amplifier removes common-mode noise on RGB differential-video-transmission line - 04/13/06 EDN-Design Ideas Use a single operational amplifier to minimize common-mode signals' effects on differential-component-video receivers Design by Tamara Papalias and Mike Wong, Intersil Corp
Amplifier requires no DC bias - 03/16/00 EDN-Design Ideas Intrinsically capacitive transducers and or high-impedance signal sources usually require ac coupling and a buffer amplifier to condition signal for furr processing. Buffers take many forms, but most of m compromise signal quality through Design by John Guy, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA
Amplifier Thermal Protection - The thermal protection of amplifiers is always a concern, since overheating is a sure way to reduce the life of semiconductors and other components. Where you don't want to use a fan (such as in Project 42Thermo-Fan for Amplifier Cooling), then a complete shutdown can be performed. __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP
Amplifier Timer - This circuit turns-off an amplifier or any other device when a low level audio signal fed to its input is absent for 15 minutes at least.
Pushing P1 the device is switched-on feeding any appliance connected to SK1. Input audio signal is boosted and squared by IC2 A & B and monitored by LED D4. __ Contact: IQ Technologies

An Audio Equalizer for Communications Use 234 kB PDF file - This five-band audio equalizer was originally designed for use at a multireciever site (a voting system hub). Originally published in the May 1990 QST __ Designed by Robin Humbolt WA4TEMAn Audio Limiter for NBFM use - This image is of a hard audio limiter used to limit the amount of deviation in an exciter. After the "knee" the compression ratio is infinite to 1 (hard limiter.) Smaller amounts of compression ratio can be achieved by inserting resistance between the output of the rectifier, and the DC input of the FET (gate.) This circuit can be used ahead of the processing in a standard exciter to add compression, or hard limiting.

An Audio-Noise-Based Voting - As hand-held transceivers (H-Ts) become smaller, and low power, battery conserving operation becomes more popular, the disparity between the transmitting range of a typical 100 watt repeater compared to the repeater accessing range of a typical 1 watt or less H-T becomes more and more apparent. How often have you found it difficult (or impossible) to access a repeater with a low power H-T even though you can hear the repeater at full quieting? This can happen even if the repeater is equipped with a high sensitivity, state-of-the-art receiver. __ Designed by Mark Kolber WB2WHC

An Automatic Mike Muter for Singing Guitarists - The average musical Do-It-Yourselfer starts building guitar effects by making a distortion pedal of some sort. It's a good introduction to musical electronics, and pretty simple as well, since getting a circuit NOT to be linear has never been hard. But there comes a time when you have to stop thrashing the strings in your bedroom, get up on stage and *play*. When you get to there, you run into all kinds of little problems that you never encountered back in your room. __ Designed by R.G. Keen
An Ultra Low Distortion Audio Test Oscillator - This project was published in the March 2010 issue of the Australian magazine "Amateur Radio", and uses a unique circuit and cheap readily available components to acheive laboratory grade performance. :-) __ Designed by VK5JST / VK5TR
An ultra-flexible tonestack with clean boost. Schematic, photo & PCB/perfboard layouts. - The Tonemender is a very flexible, yet simple clean boost with a 3-knob tonestack that allows the user to re-create the classic Fender, Marshall and Vox responses. We suggest using a TLC2272 for the dual op-amp. The TLC2272 is rated for low-noise and rail-to-rail output, which will offer the highest possible clean boost and dynamic range. The NE5532 is another good choice, but a TL072 can also be used with decent results __ Designed by holler @ runoffgroove.Com

Audio Amp Output Power Limiter - If you hire out audio equipment, or just don't want the kids to blow up your speakers when you are not home, this is the project for you. It is a very simple little project, but will protect the speakers from being overdriven. Any attempt at overdrive will simply cut the amp gain backthe more overdrive, the more the input signal is reduced. __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP
