Hi, me again!
Sorry to bother you with my dump questions, I try hard to understand but I have 3 differents schematics, it's hard.
EDIT: At least, I have some sound coming out but for now, it's sound more like a 555. But there is some progress ...

It's a term borrowed from computing, but also used for breadboards. Here, basically imagine a bare wire, and these various other wires connect to it. You could also just ignore the term and think of it as a single common point where all the wires that connect to the bus go.
On my schematic there are 7 connections to that bus... basically, all of them connect to the same point.
It's quite simple but I feel like I'm not explaining it clearly.
As for reading schematics, this one is not exactly the easiest because of the matrix and the tap points.
BTW, One nice site that helped me learn is "Fun with sea moss": http://www.milkcrate.com.au/_other/sea-moss/ . For each circuit, there is the schematic as well as a picture of what it looks like on the breadboard. As you get better at reading schematics, you will find the breadboard version no longer necessary... in fact, for complex circuits, they can get quite messy and harder to decipher than the schematic!

I have to say, I got bubzy's schematic working and finally, it wasn't that hard ... electronics sometimes ... Thank you very much James for your patience and your explanations. I didn't get enough time to try it yet. Can't wait!
Thank you all for your help, it helped! |
