Title: "New" version Crack Speedball.
Post by: Laudanum on June 29, 2018, 05:59:11 AM

I have one of the older speedball kits.  Looks like the newer ones have a single board over the 12AU7 socket rather than the two smaller boards.   I know the current Speedball description says it works with all versions of Crack.  But I'm not clear as to whether there any circuit differences between old and new?  Am I missing anything with the original version?

THX.

The circuit is the same. Virtually every change made was for the express purpose of eliminating the common builder's errors in the original version. Neither one is better or worse than the other.
