This is an atari Punk Console super fun with delay, has two outputs so that I can do multiple things like driving a frequency divider or other noise oscillators.

Craigslist Finds

So I thought I would just start sharing some of the cool things that I come across on Craigslist here. Just came across this little gem http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/msg/2007968404.html "Very portable, only weighs 42 lbs."

Optical Tremolo.


This is 100roberthenry's
optical tremolo. Personally I think its great sounding, especially with the small amount of parts used. Here is what he says about it: "experimenting with tremolo's..mono and stereo ..dual tremolo's in one pedalfor panning left and right....optical..."

What gets me excited about this is the stereo applications that one could use it for. if one channel was in a feed back loop with a delay and other time based effects the tonal possibilities would be nearly uncountable.

My Day is Complete

Thanks guys at The Amp Hour for the shout out!!! You totally made my day!

A sick ring modulator


Just came across this cool ring modulator by  zebranalogiczetangas | September 24, 2010

"Experimenting with the ring modulator.
I ´m using the next wave form square, sawtooth, sine.
I´m playing with a guitar modified using singles coil and a amplifier hand made."

I really need to build one myself its one of those pedals that i have always wanted.

Shout Out

Just wanted to give a shout out to el musico loco and his great work at: elmusicoloco
I know this is random but I fell it would be cool to do this on a regular basis.  In which case, I would also like to give a shout out to Forrest Mims III and all the great work that he has done, with out his books I don't think that I would have ever gotten as far as I have in electronics.
