LCR network

Re: LCR network

How do i set the Attack and Compression of a Pickup?

Picking differently... this is not a pickup setting

Whats the compression of a pickup?

Pickups don´t compress.. gain stages (amp) compress

Yes different Gaussed is different strengths but also different frequency responses but a A2 has midrange peaks so how do u put a FACT to that a A2 have midrange?

The different strength of the magnet is responsible for the different tone, and is RELATIVE.... if A2 is considered "flat", then ceramic is accentuated lows and highs w/ more output

Can u explain why a A2 has midrange peaks or midrange frequencys?

I just did... BTW, midrange spikes are NOT purely dependent on the magnet.... the JB is quite nasal and has an A5

Then what is the Wire used for then?

THis could not be explained any clearer than in my previous post

why would wire turns matter?

More turns = higher resistance = more output...

Re: LCR network

I was thinking of a an LCR meter at work that measures impedance. Which it does, by measuring inductance/capacitance/resistance. Plus, I've had eleventy-seven beers.

Enjoy them! I've been ill and have got work tomorrow!

Bill Lawrence Q-filter), or capacitance, (my own de-mud mod),

Whats the De-mud mod? what does this do to the pickup?

It sorts out "De mud!!"

Re: LCR network

more output= muddy tone.

I can see it now. New walters questions: What is mud? How can you change its impedence. What is tone? Is it sound? If its sound can it be in pink since it comes in brown?

Re: LCR network

Perhaps thats the secret to EVH's brown sound!

Unfortunately, my website is down for the moment, so I can't post the pic, but its just a 500k resistor, in parallel with a .001uf cap, in series with the red and white wire of a pup. (If using SD's.) I use it on a 59 neck and a Distortion neck. Its a cool mod that removes the low-end "mud", by rolling back the bass just a tad.

HOw do u make a pickup have nasal?

What cause the midrange spikes if its not dependent on the magnet?
its the wire turns plus the strength of the magnet?



why would wire turns matter?
More turns = higher resistance = more output

What about the Q,resonance, midrange, Twang?

Re: LCR network

Artie don't get suckered in, everytime this guy learns a new term he asks the oddest questions you could imagine. I'd love it if he would follow Rev Donzo's instructions to give us an essay on all that he has learned. I'd add a full essay on guitars, pups, history and why he is such and idiot.

Re: LCR network

Whats the difference between Bill Lawrence Q-filter VS a Gibson 335 Varitone?

A Gibson Varitone used Inductors and resistance in a sector switch

A varitone changes the pickups impedance and tone?

Re: LCR network

Twang can be achievd by destroying a small third world country. Or getting the right guitar that is produced by a company. Can you guess what that guitar is?

A varitone is not for 11 year olds. Its a massive weapon that will make small children soil themselves and grown man cry at the sheer multitude of impedance.

Good thing this thread will get deleted. I wouldn't want my post count to be enlarged by this. No matter how much fun it is.

Re: LCR network

A simple electronic model of a pickup is a LCR network which consist of a resistor a capacitor and a coil... such a circuit has a resonant frequence etc... you have too read about this it's too complex too describe coz I don't know your knowledge about electronic physics and math..
*edit*
Artie described much better what LCR network is than I did it

Re: LCR network

OOOOH, he discovered Google now, too..... Varitone... such a BIG word.... :laugh2:

Re: LCR network

I actually wonder if he knows who EVH is. Google it up sonny.

That was my point earlier... the Network isn´t given because you only have the coil, the resistor and Cap are added later in the control cavity.

I still don't know if walters is joking, wants to provocate, wants to test knowledge or just ....

hes not sure. Soon he will ask us if he is joking or being serious. Plus, he would still need to ask you what provocate means

Re: LCR network

My guess is he's just a bored brat that knows someone who knows what SD is and decided to pop in. Either that or he did a search for forums and got here. Either way I'm amazed he hasn't taken the hint.

He just wants some attention. And I'm giving it to him because I want to have some fun. OMG, can that be perceived as a threat... wonder why I haven't heard from Evan of Scott F... Oh that's right, because I haven't broken any rules LOL

Judging by experiences from myself and others on other forums with a user under his IP address: pretty sure it´s the 2nd and the 4th

There is a capacity caused by the windings every real coil has a capacity... just a ideal coil has no capacity and no resistance and it is Z = i*w*L
The tone circuit just makes it a complexer LCR circuits with more componenents ....
