Weird Sound Generator

Some years ago I started to build an ASM-1 synth, but for some reason that project stalled.

The Gakken SX-150 has put the building bug back in me. I’m working on something less ambitious this time, a Weird Sound Generator.

I’m planning a few minor modifications:

  • LED power indicator.
  • Switches to disable HFO3/4 (Weird Oscillators) at input to filter.
  • External input to filter.
  • Unfiltered signal output, a la the un-reborn version.
  • HFO3/4 CV inputs.
  • Output amp to drive a built in speaker and headphone jack.

Progress so far:

  • Parts purchase.
  • Partial breadboarding.
  • Case purchase (a tool case from Harbor Freight Tools).
  • Panel design.
  • PC board stuffed including parts for mods (which need to be connected into the standard circuit).
  • Panel fabricated and controls mounted.
