It does make a difference to change the resistor, but I kept all mine at 1k and just adjusted the caps values. On some I had to use a reistor on the pots. I used LIN pots 'cause that's what I had on hand. I'll give the log pots a try on the next one. I thought the Decay Mod for the Hats & Cymbals sound really good!

Has anyone done Decay on the BD or Snare

Thanks! Really need to know things. :)

I have sucsesfully made a 555. I got it working with my TR-505.
I am guessing that you have to have diffrent numbers of capasitators
for the diffrent sounds. The pitches for the diffrent sounds is not the
same. This is no problem to test out. What do you think, does the
resistance of the pot change this aswell.

and, when it comes to the pots i tried a log-pot instead of a lin-pot,
and i think it works better, the fine tuning in the higher freq's is
more easy. Have any one else tryed this out

Cheers!!
