This is a very cool project, and you made a very neat job of laying it out on that prototype board. I started out using veroboard and so that makes a lot of sense to me - you use the strips and break them where necessary. i've never really been sure how to use this type of prototype board. ie which side the stuff goes on, how you're supposed to make the connections etc. So I was fascinated to see how you went about this. I love the result too - as in the sound of this machine. It's even better knowing that it's from a vintage magazine.
Cheers =) I use stripboard a lot too. This was really easy to fit stuff in tight spaces though. I’m sold on these panels for quick prototyping! The trick is definitely to use bare wires and component legs to join things instead of bridging rows of pads with solder. Really useful to be a able to solder on both sides. Thank you for the song at the end btw!
@@hackmodular You're very welcome! There are definitely lots of good tips in the video. Your 'breadboard' prototype pcb is beautiful, btw. I don't know what I'll use it for yet but it will be something special.
I used to do my circuits this way as well, but now PCBs are so cheap and easily available, I just design a PCB and have it manufactured. I get it back in about a week and then solder components on, Done.
@DenariusHaveNarius Most of the cost is shipping. I always go cheap (slow) on shipping. I recently bought 5 pcbs that were about 4x4 inches for about $17, shipping included.
quite overwhelming, 'init?
yes, indeed lol.
thanks for the vid, going to start looking over the circuit
Niiiice!
I borrowed a Trascendent 2000 for a weekend. It was a NTSST synth (Never The Same Sound Twice!) and advertised in Maplin Magazine at the time!
@@cpcnw NTSST ha gonna use that
Absolutely agree with your whole rant at the end, and such a beautiful build!
Haha

thanks man

Is it worth it for one-offs? Haven't checked prices in a long time.

@Neverforget71324 Wow. I remember the prices being like $37 a board but having to buy a minimum number! Thanks for the heads up.
@DenariusHaveNarius They do require a minimum of 5... but for that price... I don't really care
@@Neverforget71324 A lot better than the required number before. Thanks again.
Viel zu geil 😎
Nice man, would you reduce the size down now that you have a successful build?
Nah this works ok for me. Might try build some other drums though 👍
Hoh! I also have that green mouse pad you have?
Please where wil I found the circuit
@@AdutwumwahBernice there’s a link the description to Look Mum No Computer’s video on the Twin T drum circuit that shows it 👍
OMG. Can you build one for me please ?
Why not have a go yourself?! Pretty sure those BeepBoop PCB panels are still available =)

I would like to, very much. Don't know were to start though. Any book or site reccomendations where to learn some basics?
@@luxinterior5 any of look mum no computers diy stripboard projects are a good place to start 👍
Great stuff. Share your iteration of sheme
