Evolution: Triangle VCO

This shows the progress of the Ian Fritz Triangle VCO that I talked about in an earlier post. After a few stuff ups it all came to life today! Two problems cancelled each other out which caused a bit of head scratching but after a few tweeks we did get this:

I haven't calibrated the 1V/octave bit yet but so far it seems really quite good! But then you would expect that from Ian's designs...

Wheel Barrow Walk...

OK as per a post a bit of a while ago (Imutable...) I have actually finished the prototype PCB for the mutant Peaks style board. Will try and etch it in the next day or so and do some testing. The name follows on from the Drowning by Numbers association. Since this one is using a fairly slow processor I thought that having Walk in the name seemed appropriate! I have probably gone a bit over the top with the heat-sinks. If people are happy to etch their own boards then this should be about a $30 build + panel & knobs... It is really only useful as LFO/Envelope Generator, not drums, but hopefully a useful learning/experimentation platform...

The Nyman album for the soundtrack to  Drowning by Numbers is one of my favorites and gets regularly listened to even though I bought it in 1991.

AD538

Got one of these to make a MoTM-510. God knows what it will sound like!
