opamp attenuate signal theory question

Aug 10, 2007 2 Replies

hello,



i am trying to make an oscillator that I can plug into a guitar amp (or keyboard or bass amp). i made an oscillator, but the amplitude of the signal is way too big, 9 volts, i was wondering how i could bring this signal down to the millivolts level (i think that's typical for keyboard amps)..... could i just stick a resistor at the end of my output.... for some reason I feel weird about doing that.... like thinking that maybe I need a buffer in there, that if I do just put a resistor at the output of my oscillator that that when i do hook the circuit up to a load (the guitar amp) that it would change the signal.... like it wouldn't be consistent but instead dependent on the load..... could anybody help me out with this?



thanks joshua

A resistor based divider is appropriate.
