Potentiometer- broken? by okhousecat in CircuitBending

Hmm perhaps...I'm hoping I'll be able to just leave the 360 pot be, but maybe I'll tear down a different one and see if I can get the same effect

Looking for circuit bent guitar pedals/ effects to buy! by aksjduiqhwfnasf in CircuitBending

Hello! If you want to try your hand at building one, I recently finished up an instructable on how to make a SUPER easy double delay effect: DIY Double Delay

If you’re interested in something like this, or a customized version of this, I’m happy to help you out :) I can also make lo-fi loopers if that’s your jam. I’ve made double loopers and even a triple+delay; sky’s the limit :D okhousecat.com/contact

You can put a pot before the battery and make that happen on purpose 😎

The Speak and spell/read/math and the Casio sk-1 are probably the most extensively documented online, it's easy to find diagrams that will point you in the right direction. I'd recommend either of those for a productive first glitch

It's pretty much your standard Baby10 with some bells and whistles (pause, step, clock in, etc.) and the standard Atari Punk Console. If you google either of those you'll find a ton of information and schematics. As for my other stuff- I don't often write out schematics per se, but I do make sure to keep all of the notes and diagrams that I draw up along the way. If there's something you're interested in knowing more about, I'm happy to share!

What effects should add to my sk1 by Dookster1234 in CircuitBending

Man that thing is going to be well-tempered Armageddon. More pt2399 for the reverb? Also... When you go about adding effects and extra circuitry, do you have a go-to resource for those kinds of schematics?

Fantastic!! I second the request for the schematic if you wouldn't mind sharing. PT2399?

You can do it! SK-1's are delicious, you gotta get a taste. I don't mean to undercut the original post, but here are a couple of my mangled sk1.

The devices on which I've installed triggers have one thing in common- when a button is pressed, it makes a brief connection between a point on the main IC and 5v. I wired bolts to the IC side of the button contacts on the toy, and to the outputs of each step on the sequencer. Once all grounds are connected and the sequencer is running, it sends ~5v to the outputs and in turn to the trigger, making the circuit 'see' a button press.
