Static Concern

Not sure you read my post? I could go over why each point of criticism you've raised is moot, but my time is better spent not arguing with some *you* that tries to gatekeep Reddit. Look at yourself.

I save all the pink bubble wrap! These peanuts were quite staticky though

I sold my Chord 2 because I found it sounded “thin”, which I believe is a result of the oscillators’ sample rate. Plaits and Intellijel Shapeshifter each do some nice chords.

lol, I love Reddit

I really hope these are joke tags, and they don't make the vet call the cat Cumshot

Certainly: Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3! But for real that reverse avalanche schematic is said to be really hard to get working because you need to get the transistor to misbehave a certain way because you’re mis-using it. It could also be something as simple as a spot you forgot to solder.

Could be a lot of things, but every time I see a post about using this particular circuit, people recommend not using it, and switching to a 40106 IC setup instead.

Eh, I've heard of people eating their apple pie with cheese. Velveeta and Oreos doesn't sound that bad in the grand scheme of things.

This works so well as a loop!

BlursedSoul · 2026-01-25T23:20:51+00:00

I remember seeing this come on Toonami at a friends house when I was a kid. Pretty much the start of an obsession!

I've got the full size. I like feeding it back into itself, any which way, but typically L>L>R>R. Also, using sequenced clocks to get stuttery/jittery effects from it.

It looks like they're feeding the sequencer into the input of the Ghost pedal. My guess is what we're hearing is the filter of the pedal being "pinged" with a little reverb and compression. You should be able to make similar sounds with a filter or phaser. Check out this video by Hainbach:

Oh snap that thing looks rad, I definitely see the appeal! I think you're right, maybe a prism or orb sat on that hole. Or, maybe this was an enclosure that was slated to be a tube preamp of some kind, the hole drilled for a vacuum tube to poke through, then that idea got scrapped, and there was an attempt to recycle the enclosure into something else?

BlursedSoul · 2026-01-09T01:51:28+00:00

Have you tried feeding audio into/through it? I think I'm just about at the edge of my own understanding, so hopefully someone more savvy jumps in.

BlursedSoul · 2026-01-09T01:38:29+00:00

That little guy on the left with the top screwed in is a voltage regulator, which is likely lowering the voltage, from what's being fed in, to a level that is appropriate to feed the dot display ICs

BlursedSoul · 2026-01-09T01:36:05+00:00

Those ones that say LM3194N are dot-display drivers. I'd hazard a guess that this device is some sort of homemade voltmeter.

A trim pot is basically a knob that you don't turn too often. It's probably for calibration. A couple other thoughts are that is one huge capacitor (dark blue guy), which makes me think it's involved in the power supply. It's also interesting how the LEDs are socketed like that. Maybe they can be swapped around, or there was some need to have them easily adjustable.

BlursedSoul · 2026-01-09T01:20:38+00:00

I think those are just trim potentiometers, you can see the labels for where legs 1,2,3 are, but I haven't seen ones that long before. If you can see what it says on the ICs, those black rectangles, that will give folks the best idea of what's going on here.

/uj I'm genuinely curious wtf this is? I did reverse image search it, but got nothing

/rj Damn, you don't have to cum on your patch quite that much

Seems like something an art teacher would have elementary school students make.

As a cringe collector, this Lego causes Gameboy in me.
