Hi Aaron I've built your mic mixer with two741.
The thing is that it's sounding distorted.
Is maybe cause I used only one 9v battery to both op amps?
Thanks
Andrew.

Hi Aaron I did not understand your last post.

A guy told me of this circuit:
http://www.musicfromouterspace.com/analogsynth_new/WALLWARTSUPPLY/wall%20wart%20supply%20with%20load%20resistors.gif

I want to do a power supply with 12v out too is this possible?
Thanks

What he said.

If you don't want to line power it, nor carry two batteries, then there are several circuits on the circuits page designed to produce a negative voltage from a positive. Listed under "Voltage Inverter".

The output of the opamp must swing positive and swing negative to produce clear audio. Without the negative polarity supply it cannot swing negative and instead it acts like a rectifier and chops off all the negative going output swings which causes severe distortion.

Last time I disconnected the ops seperately I mean from pin 7 brought two wires out to a 9v battery and it sounded ok.
Maybe with a one pole trafo this will still work ok.

Just keep in mind that the unregulated power supply will produce about 13V as the load of the op-amp is so low. Also, you will likely find the need to add additional filter capacitors to remove line noise.

Connect Vout+ to +9V on the mixer, and Vout- to -9V. The arrow pointing down (ground) connects to the ground plane of the mixer.

Honestly, two 9V batteries do the job very easily and last for years with the minimal power draw of the 741.

I've built this power supply

Can you please tell me how I connect it to the mixer circuit exactly?
Thanks
Aaron Cake Posted - Jul 10 2016 : 10:15:38 AM
Oh, yes. If you check the circuits page you will find a dual polarity power supply which will give you the basic circuit.

I meant that if I find a transformer center tapped +9v-0v-9v will this work? or a power supply?
Thanks
Aaron Cake Posted - Jul 09 2016 : 10:17:37 AM
I'm not quite sure what you are asking referring to the transformer.

But the fundamental problem is that the 741 requires a dual polarity power supply when used as an amplifier.

Thanks fors response. If I use a powerful transformer and hook both connections in parallel will solve the problem?
Thanks.
