Exploring A Kind Of DIY Mellotron
@BatteryOperated Banger Time! Taking a tape recorder and connecting a couple of speed control pots in parallell with independent on/off buttons is such a smart idea for making the hackiest mellotron-ish instrument ever!

Dispersion - The Fourth Ever Pitch Controlled Modulation Effect
zhlédnutí 10KPřed měsícem
Dispersion tskes your incoming signal and clips it enough to use its pitch as a clock source for a clock divider. That clock divider then control both the time parameter of a delay and a silencer. So it becomes a pitch controlled lfo (sorta) controlled tremolo & vibrato effect. And of course I added a fuzz as well!

Before circuit bending all three of Casios kermit keyboards (that they for some reason probably great reason made with Jim Henson back in 1987) I wanted to make this video as a little introduction to their existence. All three of them are simply Kermit cased other Casio keyboards: EP-10 = PT-10 (or whatever other VL-1 type) EP-20 = PT-82 (I think until you correct me) EP-30 = SK-10 (waaay coole...

So this quirky little keyboard by yamaha is pretty much just circuit bent straight out of the box. Which is a really cool thing to see! Wish they had done pitch bends like this on all their big keyboards as well. Super smart! And also ... wtf is up with one michael jackson song being in it?

Circuit bending the Miku Stomp turned out to be one of the most interesting ideas I've ever had. The result is hard to communicate how ridiculously awesome it feels to make sounds with. I truly feel like I have unlocked the full potential of this pedal and wish I could just go out there and circuit bend all the miku pedals so we could experience it together!!

Hey Simon when I first saw your videos i thought you were AF, but after sometime you've grown on me. I think you are really doing something great here. Incorperating circuit bent instruments in banging tracks and showing people how easy it is, is really something your good at. Keep up the great work and someone should make a sticker "I can fix that....in my DAW"....lol
Oooooo spooky magpie in the dark
Dude you need to chill a bit. No idea what you are talking about in the beginning 😂
Honestly me neither 😅
Awesome exploration video, loved the tune at the end! ❤ We sent the MiniMello your way because when we first sent you some stuff we were only just starting out... and we weren't very good at postage when we sent the Kalooper... so wasn't the best package 😅 We wanted to send our new mod and our favourite loop as a thank you for all the support and also we knew you'd make something awesome with it...which you did...instantly 😂 ❤ As soon as we figure out how to do our podcast remotely you and Analog Weapon first on the list of people who we would love to have on! Big love to you and the pirates ❤
Sick, what are the stats? What can it do?
round / robin
I circuit bent my own tape players. The motors always die quickly. Is there any replacement motors anyone know of that can stand up to the different speed and pitch controls?
I laughed that you almost immediately reached for the drill and proceeded to circuit bend, the circuit bent machine...magpie mania
:)
Suh dude! I loving the funky jams!
I love the track!
Nice right? [sorry]
"what is going on?" Miku is happening.
:) been doing all kinds of cool stuff lately with my synths and now you uploaded! Thanks for sharing and keeping me motivated.
The intro sounds crazy
Super dope. You still need to introduce yourself, and your pedals, to Jack White. 😉
Yep
I've never been this early before, hi Simon!
Hello!
Special sounds man! I really want an SK-1 and get back into bending, but everything changed when the fire nation attacked. I would love to hang with you at least once before my meat machine is permanently parked in an underground garage. I need someone to really show me how to move clips in my DAW. I never feel like I'm doing it right and I think that's whats been missing all these years. But seriously, I really dig your style mans! This is the music that music listens to... er something.
What's this paper?
I should NOT have dropped acid before watching this.
Play thru autotune would be interesting
You freed Miku’s uncle’s voice
I feel an album coming on: "Variations on a cheesy keyboard Demo tune."
Питух
Fun SK -1 trick without solder or twisted genius brain: Start with a looped sample… turn vibrato on and off.. the loop either drops from super sped up to normal in about two seconds, or builds up to normal from super slowed down .. about 20 seconds and krazy f’ed up
КАК ВСЕГДА УЛЕТ
Very relaxing sounds, and also very trippy! The track makes me think of lying on a fluffy white cloud, gently floating across the sky with other chill people also floating on their clouds, and with the aroma of joss sticks adding to the chill out vibe. Maybe it's a certain type of "cloud" we are all floating on (ahem!) Love the way you found and made such musical bends with your SK-1 :-)
Ethereal 🎶 😮
careful, your mo is starting to get those hipwanker bits on the ends
Amazingly chill vibe❤❤❤ Using pitch correction is just so genius!! I have to try it later to cover my keyboard playing😊
Fresh air music! Lovely as usual!
another DAW hot tip, for free: if a track is too loud or too quiet, you can change the level of it. then it will sound just right.
💀💀💀
Just commenting so I get the notification when someone comments how it's way more complicated than that to try and make themselves feel smart
we're talking about simon, man.
that synth is not allowed to mix so well with everything!
Superb ! U r squeezin so much soul outta that sk1… lovely vibez… more plz
we all float down here! <3
very fluid and care free vibes. Nice music. make what comes to you as natural. We're all natural beings don't fight it.
I like the vibe with this one, well done buddy 👏 ❤
SK-1 sounds are etched in my brain since 1988.
the EQ'd piano sound is absolutely beautiful. who needs to spend loads of money on "real" pianos wjen you've gpt something that sounds that good? down with gear elitism and up with lo-fi experimentation imo
lofi is for deaf people.
