thx, well i need to build one now
if i can just make a small remark, the resistance figures are not very legible, and R 10.11.12.13.14 (100k for pot) are all write 1, but i refer to the diagram to compare the value, thanks again
I replaced the layout above with an edited one. Does this help?
yeh it’s better
I had all the components (except the CD4046) so I built it this afternoon,
but it lacks a connection on your stripboard.
every 100k resistors of the pot to pin 6 of TL072
Ya know what! I had that in there, and at some point I had a brainfart and removed it! Thanks! I’ll update the layout. I also have a panel layout made if anyone wants it.
Updated the layout. Thanks Dud! I’m guessing this was the reason for the bit of modulation I was hearing that I mentioned in the other thread. Nope, I actually had this connection
maybe another thing to clarify, the correspondence of the pots with the multiplication or division fx
With the pot number of your stripboard :
n ° 1 (pin 4 of CD4040) = / 8
n ° 2 (pin 2) = / 4
n ° 3 (pin 3) = / 2
n ° 4 (pin 5) = 1
n ° 5 (pin 6) = x2
n ° 6 (pin 7) = x4
n ° 7 (pin 9) = x8
I think it’s good to have it for setting up on the panel
Ah! Good idea. Now Updated
Finished a new layout for the Wave Animator, and have it built except pots and jacks. Testing later today. Hope it doesn’t blow up!
It rarely does! Actually in that respect real live electronics do not in any way come near what you see in the movies. So, no worries.
Yeah, lol! I’m being dramatic.
I know, actually that is what I always found disappointing. I wouldn’t mind some fireworks now and then (although that could be costly, so it better not happen).
Top tip! To avoid electronics exploding you should never build several home made theatrical magnesium flash boxes in the same room.
“The valves! They were screaming man! I ain’t goin back!”
This conjures up a mind picture of a living room wall somewhere with a Farabide-shaped silhouette permanently burned into the wallpaper.
More flash than bang but every exposed circuit nearby got fused with conductive dust and any powered valve popped with a lovely mirror finish.
Nice to see something using the binary ripple counter!
I mentioned previously that you could get 12 Oct divisions with a 555.
I wonder if you can use a 555, then run them through the binary ripple counter to get 12 switchable octaves, then condition their pulse outputs to be other waveforms to produce multiple wave shapes…
I recently updated the Korg MS-20 filter layout with a choise between 6dB or 12dB per Octave roll off. 6dB only works in Lowpass mode btw.

Very neat job. Keep us posted.
