5. Tone Control.
The tone control of the circuit is made up of a low pass filter created by R5 and either C4 and C5 or C4 and C5 with a 10K
resistor between them, depending on how the blending tone 10K potentiometer is set.
As the 9V rail is just a rail, to calculate and understand the tone filtering going on, you can assume ground. So, to redraw
this to make it easier to understand, see the below figure:
RO is the calculation of R4, which is 1K in parallel to the maxed value of VR2, which is 500K. This would be calculated at:
1 / RO
= (1 /
R
4
) + (
1
/
R
volMAX
)
1 / RO
= (1 /
1,000
) + (
1
/ 500,000)
1 / RO
= 0.001 + 0.000002
1 / RO
= 0.001002
RO
= 1
/
0.001002
RO
= 998.004 Ω
