I need to stop playing with toys (free sample instrument)

In this video, I'm doing and a simple modification of a child's toy keyboard, replacing the speaker with a jack. This toy has a surprisingly good keyboard!
Free sample instrument here: ko-fi.com/s/eb... (SFZ and decentSampler format)

🎵 The grand Old Duke of York,
He had 10,000 men,
He marched them up to the top of the hill,
And he had them all again! 🎵
😂
Love your dedication to the discovery of new instruments! An inspiration! 👍

There's probably a real historical story about this rhyme, but I'm not sure what. Always fun to play something a bit different! Cheers!

I feel like a bit of low pass filtering on that sound would help it a lot.

[@abominablemusic]

Yep, good call!

circuit benders also don't know how to circuit bend-- it can take some experimenting :~) Often newer toy keyboards like these have all the logic on a single chip glued to the board in a blob of black paste. This cheaper manufacturing method makes it impossible (or at least staggeringly difficult) to find interesting parts to connect. Anywho, excellent sounds squeezed out of the little toy. The jack seemed like a huge success, and the paint job looks clean

Thanks dude, I’m a ‘learn by doing’ sort of person so just sharing my random experiments!
