Building my perfect Korg and Bastl Combo in a Silverware box, but wanted to try a little jam first.
I'm at the point of putting my Bastl and Korg Modular (all dupont connectors) into one box. Found the perfect fit in silverware box to keep things tidy. Also created a junction box with multiple splits, buttons and knobs to att components instead of using my normal breadboard kludge.
At this point the Bastl Arp and Wizard were not used.

A Brief Overview of Projects I've Completed this Year, 2024 from Cicada Hats to Talking Anatomies
มุมมอง 270วันที่ผ่านมา
In my retirement I create stuff that interests me. Little electronic art projects, circuit bending toys, sound stuff. This is all separate from my photography and other art, but I thought i'd enjoy putting together the little noisy things I've managed to complete this year. There were many more incomplete and failure to get off the ground things, but that's ok. That's how I learn. - Project Cha...
Practice Jam on my homemade Kaossitar

I put a Kaossilator and Mini-KP into a guitar-like format, using a Guitar Hero neck and square body and just some practice with it before i play live. Video of how it's made: th-cam.com/video/K05Nm2A8hAo/w-d-xo.html
How to build a Kaossitar, a handmade guitar with Korg's Kaossilator & FX processor and a Guitar Hero
มุมมอง 13321 วันที่ผ่านมา
I wanted to play the Kaossilator with the KP-mini together live and decided to make it look more like a guitar, so i took the neck from an older Guitar Hero neck and rewired the buttons to perform various functions such as record and gate and added a sustain button. An interesting challenge that gives it a new feel and a one-handed activation. How to take the Korgs apart and the wiring and case...

All 9 Effects of the Bastl Kastle 2 FX Wizard on a Circuit Bent Toy
มุมมอง 774หลายเดือนก่อน
I decided to try my new FX Wizard with a simple circuit-bent saxophone toy that can be kind of annoying to see how well this little beast can mangle the sound and was pleasantly surprised! While i'm anxious to learn to use FX Wizard, i'm easily confused by the color scheme and needed a sort of 'cheat sheet' to help me remember which of the 9 effects go with what color, so the effect is shown in...

QUIT EATING CHILDREN! And other people yelling at residents of Asheville, NC during the Trump Visit
มุมมอง 3.5K5 หลายเดือนก่อน
Today, Wed August 14th, the Trump contingent came out of the woods and the woodwork to see their leader speak and to support him. Because Asheville is generally a liberal conclave in a sea of conservatives, the liberals were protesting with signs and it was all generally civil. A few got their panties in a wad though.
Abandoned Ice Factory, Asheville - circa 2004
มุมมอง 685 หลายเดือนก่อน
Asheville River Arts District had several factories and Asheville Ice & Storage was one of them, built in 1906. It served Asheville's cooling needs and lay abandoned for many years providing shelter for homeless and real estate for graffiti writers to practice on. It was demolished in 2013 leaving only the old smoke stack.

So i started with a layer of bubble wrap. On top of that - and bec...

It’s like a frog but it’s a drum and it has drum pads and it was made by Playschool The toy has three big buttons which make drum sounds And which are drum pads and then it has another button type thing which is the symbol which I believe can be moved around it also has a recording playback function and it assigned the recordings to music originally when you press the play button it says hop to the music or something like that but when you press the record button you can record anything The microphone is built into the device The toy has various other sound effects including different drum samples and frog samples it also has various musical styles and effects the toy I believe even had its own pitch controller with a limited range as well but it had a big speaker on off switch was by the speaker which was a push button switch that when you would push it it would go in and stuff like that I think there were some weird plastic drumsticks that came with it but it’s a pretty toy It’s a pretty interesting toy Why I thought about this toy it’s because I thought that this toy might be the perfect toy for a bender to get their hands on and it glitches sometimes as well with all of its capabilities and it sounds it could be a great toy band A great toy to bend There’s also another toy that is like a jukebox that has kind of like a touchscreen control which is kind of hard and interesting it has an on off button volume control knob and I believe even speed control then you could add different effects like different effects like a dog barking and other things like that I think you could record on it as well and I think it’s called silly sounds jukebox but it would be great to bend

As a resident of CA, I am suffering the effects of her supposed 'experience' and policies every day. She devastated our state. Policies: Which policies? Those radical socialist policies she espoused for years, or those more moderate policies she is pretending to have now in order to get elected? Women's rights: I assume you refer to abortion...the states will decide, and neither party is proposing a federal ban.
