I've been searching the internet in the past 2 days to find LDR, without good results at all... :(

Can someone point me a place to buy those and any other information that is worth to be said about those.

I mainly want to use them for CJ's layout and some other stuff, but mainly for CJ's layout.

Merci les amis!

Small Bear has several values. Tayda has one value and Radio Shack has a package of 5 values none of which are labeled....I mean WTF is with no values labeled.

Small Bear they are listed as photcells or something like that. It is not under resistors. Tayda I can't remember but use the search function there as that is how I found it.

I'm rolling my own on the Aquaboy and have no idea what value to use so I plan to socket that LDR and the LED for that matter.

Thanks, damnit!! I just completed an order at Tayda.......i will go check for those right away, i was on their site and never found them...oh well! I'll send them a email so they add some.

And i think i'll go your way for the socket, anyway I'm always socketing everything..... :mrgreen:

You could do a dual LFO (two sets of controls). But then you'd need two things to control. Like a dual phaser or something.
