Re: Organmate Reverb
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI have found a schematic of the organ mate, . Looking at this, I would expect a lowish input impedance, and a high output impedance. This is based on the drive coming from a cathode follower stage (low output impedance) through a transformer, actual output impedance would depend on the transformer ratio, but I wouldn't expect a step up transformer here. Output from the tank is fed directly to the grid of the recovery amplifier valve, which would be a high impedance point.

IIRC the reverb tank on the Organ Mate reverb is the same as e.g. used in the A-100, that is, low impedance input (since driven from the speakers - with that bulb shunt in series). The Organ Mate has a built in output transformer having a low impedance secondary winding that matches the low impedance input (few Ohms) - I did a measurement on 3 tanks (1122). Input Ohm value measured between 0.9 and 2.3 Ohms. --
