DJLesterD ::: Favorites nice stuff, makes me think about doing some homework!!!!!!!!!!! 07-06-29 15:55:28 __________________________________________________
synthmonger ::: Favorites The rotary switches route the extra clock signal to the clock input to a few different inputs on the 4051 and 4510 chips. I really digged your Vactrol sequencer and I'm building a similar one. It'll be neat for sure so be sure to check it out! P.S. You should try and run the outputs on the 4040 to a gate to trigger signal output and stick the output to a drum machine or something. It = fun! 07-04-16 10:24:18 __________________________________________________
synthmonger ::: Favorites Er sorry it's a CD4024 (not MC4024) 7-stage binary ripple counter which is 4 Flip-flops that also divide the frequency by half up to 7 times so, /2, /4, /8, /16...up to /64 the incoming clock signal. 07-04-16 10:24:08 __________________________________________________
bakugadgetry ::: Favorites Hex Schmitt inverter = 40106 or 4069? And a 4017 counter? I'm lost as to the frequency divider, I've only seen a 555 based Forrest Mims frequency divider, the kind used in the stepped tone generator ("atari punk console") Just my stab in the dark, I'm a total amateur. 07-04-15 20:01:34 __________________________________________________

cretin4321 ::: Favorites CMOS chips are wonderful, great for experimentation... so the rotary switches switch on/off the divider/counter outputs? 07-02-08 00:34:51 __________________________________________________
synthmonger ::: Favorites Well it wasn't so much just tinkering. I was reading Don Lancasters CMOS cookbook and the idea just kinda came to me. I used bi-direction counters, frequency dividers, and since I needed many clocks I used a hex schmit inverter. It's a fairly simple schematic but it's really dependent on how you utilize the 2-5 pole rotary switches to create unique patterns. 07-02-08 00:20:11 __________________________________________________
cretin4321 ::: Favorites yeah, thats how i work too... most of my stuff is just a result of tinkering. I usually document the schematic when it's finished. So if not 555's then what chips were the foundation for the synthesis? 07-02-07 23:56:26 __________________________________________________
synthmonger ::: Favorites no 555's were used. No schematic yet, its all in my head. Glad ya like it ;D 07-02-07 22:08:09 __________________________________________________
cretin4321 ::: Favorites beautiful!... the ideal bleeps. Do you happen to have a schematic? If not, what are the basic components used for the synthesis... 555s ? 07-02-07 21:10:10 __________________________________________________
