I appreciate all of the work that went into this; could I take out the led drivers without messing with the rest of the circuit? Also, what is the value for capacitor18? |

Hello peoples, I was wandering if this circuit would work well with LM3915 instead of AN6884. I think it would be neat to have 10 LEDs per channel. |

Error in my last message-- I did not meant LM3900 but those led drivers.
@Audioguru:
About LM3900, that can be replaced with any quad (or single op-amp). About rare led drivers concern is the same thing -- whichever comparator or opamp will do in this schematic. there are possible to make with widely available components. When replacing OP amps, just pinouts needs to be checked.
And LED Drivers... its easy to convert it for opamps/comparators (in that case couple ref-level resistors needs to be added only).

Nice. instead of LM3900 can be any cheap quad op-amp or also quad comparator in this schematic (though with some minor modifications in schematic - resistors for ref levels). |

can i add another 2 channels for this project to make it 5 channels? how to do it? |

can i add one led on each ouput from AN6884 ?
so it will be 2x5 LED in each collum is it posssible ?
thanks |

I found this reading the forum..

If you add more frequency bands then you need to re-calculate the bandwidth of the existing bands to make them narrower. The "multiple feedback bandpass filter" design is in Google but uses a "normal" quad opamp instead of the weird LM3900.
C18 is simply a supply bypass capacitor. Its value depends on how much ripple is on your power supply voltage. If your power supply already has a big filter capacitor or you are using a 12V battery then C18 can be from 10uF to 100uF.
I think the CanaKit is the same circuit.

C18 is still missing from the parts list |

What is the value of C18?
--Thanks |

hey i got two question...im noob at this but, how do you connect audio input to this?????
and what is the value of C18??
i really want to know how to add input though, like an aux cable from an ipod, or something like that. |

firstly, thanks for this useful circuit. i saw its schematic but there is not value of the c18. i think it might be between 100-1000 microfarads |
