How to make my Memory Boy self oscillate?

Post by nieh »

I read that adjusting the first trim pot slightly CCW makes it self oscillate, can anyone confirm or deny this?

it should oscillate from the factory setup
im not sure whats going on in the circuit but the trimmers will adjust things but if u adjust the wrong one or too much u can alter the setup

Mine does it already. Some times it takes a bit to get going.

mine never did. I turned feed back all the way up and waited. Turned the trimpot a little to the left. Now it oscillates just like a want it to. :evil:
