'''CGS67''' the '''CGS active real ring modulator''' is an updated version of the popular "Real[[CGS Ringreal Modulator"ring modulator]], a traditional diode and transformer ring modulator. This time, a preamplifier for external input, and input and output buffers for conventional synthesizer levels are included.
 
Four quadrant multipliers have more or less replaced ring modulators in synthesizers, even though they still bear the label "ring modulator". The distortion in these is lower than that of a true diode ring modulator, because the diode voltage drops have been eliminated. This leads to better specifications, though in a noise maker, this is not always desirable.
Line 107:
* The transformers I use are "M 0222" 3k-3kCT coupling transformers from www.altronics.com.au. Other transformers will work in this circuit. You will want transformers with an impedance equal to or higher than these.
* PCB 1" x 6" with four 3mm mounting holes 0.15" in from the edges.
