Available for pre-order, bundled with a nice pink vinyl edition of the upcoming release:
(not the classic KOSMO form factor, obviously, but I think it can fit here. “circular kosmo”, maybe?)
(also the second vinyl but no CD release I’ve seen lately.)
Not into vinyl collecting, or CD collecting really. I don’t understand not selling downloads or CDs.
I finally gave in and bought an optical drive to rip a CD where no download was offered, but I’m just not gonna go buy a turntable for similar purposes.
This is flat out cool
heh - so Im super into George Clanton and his 100% Electronica Label - they barely ever make CD’s 
Always Vinyl and Cassette (Vinyl I obviously do not mind - but i can’t listen to either of those in my car -_- lol )
Drives me nuts cuz I like around 5 or 6 Artists on his label and all have the same release structure.
I remember there were some attempts to market a dashboard-mounted car player for vinyl 7" singles in the seventies. A lot of work went into making the mechanism skip-proof. Sadly the 12" album format was simply too large to be practical.
Automotive cassette players were once so common that it was rare to find a car that didn’t have one. Though 8 track cartridges were quite popular in the United States they never took off in the UK.
Hello folks, has anyone tried to build one of these from scratch yet? I’m plotting things out in Kicad, and noticed that one of the 556 halves has an unused “Q” output. Is that right? Is just the DIS output being used by later stages in the cascade of chaos?
(Schematic: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5912db7ee6f2e1435dbab4fd/t/5f660a04179c39639dee8bbf/1600522761044/Untitled.jpg)
Q is what’s usually called OUT in 555/556 pinouts; it’s the buffered output of the internal flip-flop.
It looks like this circuit is taking the output signal from the charge circuitry instead (i.e. the voltage over the capacitor), I assume to get a nicer waveform.
ahh, that’d make some sense! It looks like you do get a smoothed out waveform rather than hard square waves:
Here’s where I’m at with the Kicad design (Unrouted, no panel design yet either). It’s going to be in Eurorack format rather than Kosmo I’m afraid 
. I’m also planning on using 6x 555 timers because I bought a tube of the damn things a while ago and this seems like the perfect project to use some of them up…
Are you doing a front panel too, and having it fabbed at JLCPCB? If so be sure to put JLCJLCJLCJLC on your APCAPCAPC! 
hah! Naa, I like oshpark for my PCBs & panels. They’re quite a bit more expensive than JLC and such, but the finish is great. Also, who doesn’t love purple PCBs?!
Purple panels? I have some purple knobs on the Eurorack side, but no purple panels…
Amusingly, I’m completely out of purple knobs at the moment.
There’s some purple module examples here:
You can blame me for that:
Thanks to shipping being a little slow it took a while, but my take on the APC^3 got soldered together today. It’s one heck of a noisemaker but can be tamed in pretty interesting ways with voltage control and some knob-twiddling.
Anyway, I fed CV5 the output of a Wavetable LFO and ended up with something that might even be considered music-adjacent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4jD5lfAr4o&feature=butt
nice! sounds great 
yep! in one of the livestreams I did building this Antoine mentioned to have a listen to the charge output, and yeah a less square output! mentioned it in the vid im pretty sure!
You did indeed mention it in the video (thanks!).
The video in the post you replied to is cued to that instant.
Finished building it finally, love the nasty sounds of it
Has anyone already found a way to incorporate it into a nice enclosure? I find it quite hard to realize since the PCB has the same diameter as the front panel
