My build progress

I don’t know it

i use the basic schem and add all other stuff with the Sam’s Performance VCO

It’s like this (this is the 5th that I made, and yes I should maybe make a clean stripboard now to simplify any other future VCO :slight_smile: )

I annotated the inputs and outputs on the front of the Beatstep Pro, because it was always complicated when it is already connected with lots of cables, to find one’s way without contortion (and sometime a flashlight :slight_smile:

very simple but it will make it easier for me !

Merci, tout à fait le genre de schéma-parchemin que je recherchais :slight_smile:

Did you saw the Overlays for our favourite Beatstep Pro ? With it you didnt have to write on the BSP :wink: … by the way, the black one looks so good !!!

You and your KOSMO have lucky friends :slight_smile:

thx I did not know them but I would still have done it by hand, no money for that :slight_smile: and yes the black is very nice but don’t have the indication for the input/output jacks like i do. The white have it.

Yes! Very fortunate to get to work there frequently. There’s no shortage of synths here but it’s nice to bring somehing fresh sometimes.
Kosmo really holds up next to the classics :+1::+1:

I’ve been struggling to make sense of how to convert an astable multivibrator schematic to breadboard. Then I realised that I could rotate the breadboard and it made slightly more sense, I think. Fritzing is really clunky and I know this could be far more compact.

The schematic I found online uses 10µF capacitors, but I’ve only got 1µF and 220µF electrolytic capacitors to hand. I’m assuming I could use either, it just means the flashing will be either fast, or really slow…?

What is that place? Where is it at?

First time I tried to build something with stacking boards like this. Seems to work. But soldering them together with those pins was a horrible idea. Also, the soldering quality is equally as horrible. I think my new solder is somewhat worse than what I’ve used previously, maybe this needs some extra flux. But good enough for a prototype.
This is two identical envelope generators with only release control. I wanted a release-generator that works even with the shortest trigger signals, as many envelope generators don’t have attack short enough to have a proper release with only a few millisecond long trigger. And it’s quite a waste to use a full ADSR-module for only a release. I’ll post a schematic of this after I test it a bit more.

Hey guys,

Here are my night builds, my therapy against insomnia !

  • AND/OR logic gates
    (from the CGS36 v1.4 by Ken Stone)

  • An oldschool VCA (I don’t remember about the source of schematic)

Its all, for the moment. Have a good day and a lot of new modules !! :facepunch:

Cool! Where did you get those logic circuits? I’m looking for a simple XOR.

I build this Ken Stone too here

Sweet, thanks! Have you tried using it as a distortion, or just for gate logic?

The @EddyBergman 5 Noise in the box :slight_smile:


like allways a short vid with it
(the Grain HP is very quiet and with the poor quality of my camera can hardly be heard )

:whale: :whale2: :grinning:

Just use it for gate (rythm or ring modulator style), no distortion how you do that ?

Yes very cool circuit too. Im just waiting of my cmos order coming for build it!
