Serge NTO
Technical Aspects:
•
Use antistatic precaution when handling the NTO pcbs - don’t touch the small SMD parts and ICs with
your hands.
•
Only these parts have to be soldered in: 4 trimpots on the main pcb, an (optional) 470nF or 1uF film
capacitor on the panel pcb, 5 pin stripes to connect the main pcb to the panel pcb, Euro power
header.
•
Traditionally the Portamento knob was wired so that fully clockwise there was no(!) portamento effect
while CCW meant maximum. You may find this counter-intuitive, so you can set the pot behavior using
2 jumpers: vertically means classic Serge-style, horizontally means modern (turning the knob up means
more effect).
You have to set the jumpers one way or the other to be able to use the knob
(!)
