Personally I like the roland cube cm-30. It's a small keyboard amp with multiple inputs and on board mixer so you can hook up different noise toys all at once. It also makes a great workbench amp du ...

I just went through MPS thread and if this has been asked then I didn't see it...sorry. I was curious if re biasing would be required to run the MPS on +/- 12 volts. I plan on putting it into the sa ...

Take a pair of pliers, grab a hold of 'em and just break them off. Orrrr, you could drill some smaller holes on your panel and let them extend into them but that's really more work than its worth.

The mod does seem to change the pitch and the rate of the attack. However I can't be sure it changes the wave form as I do not own a oscilloscope. It does seem to change the slope or duration of the ...

Thanks Jochem, the case is only temporary until I finish the larger portion of the project. I'm sorry to hear you didn't finish yours. I can relate. I have several unfinished noise toys laying about. ...

Well, it took some time but it's finally finished. I decided to go with the Sound Lab with Sample Hold and the C-3, 8, 9 and 14 timer cap mod and OMG! It sounds simply incredible. I'm still testing ...

Double check all of your capacitors. I encountered a problem similar to this on a piece I built last year. I eventually changed out a few caps few one with a higher tolerance and the problem went aw ...

I would recommend just wiring it all as shown on the site and leave out anything that isn't illustrated, in the schem, or described in the circuit description. Put it all together and see what happens ...

Is the power supply assembly in the same enclosure as the sound lab? If so you could build an enclosure for it separate from the SL and ensure it is insulated. Is the control panel of the SL insulate ...

That really is just so bad ass...I really need to finish mine...

Good job!

Or you can go "hardcore Doc Brown style" and control your soundlab with you mind!

Thanks Uncle!

I'm assuming that the SPST push button switch is nothing more a typical momentary switch that breaks (or connects) a signal, correct? If so, a SPDT momentary switch ( I have dozens of these things) s ...

Yes, heavy foil should work fine. I imagine typical household aluminum foil would work to ground the hardware Smile

I use the aluminum for 2 reasons. First, and most importantly, so that all the pots, switches, jacks, etc. has a common ground. You could solder a wire across the backs of all said hardware and then ...

Another idea would be to use one of those brass kick panel doo-dads that you mount on the bottom of exterior storm doors. I saw them at Home Depot the last time I was there. I really cant remember w ...

Hey there A30N,
Like Uncle said, you really need a good T-square, files, etc. and a stable wood surface to clap things down on.
The materials I work with though were initially based on what ...

If you are really in a rush for some aluminum sheet and don't feel like waiting for it to arrive in the mail you can always go to an office supply type store and buy an aluminum clipboard and cut what ...

Thanks for the lead!

I was wondering if anyone could share some source/part numbers for some 10pos and 12pos non-shorting rotary switches? I'm having some trouble finding anything suitable/available. Thanks in advance.

You may want to do something like this to protect your circuit if you're going with a wall wart to WSG. I did the same mod (minus the capacitor) to power my WSG.

The only bummer is that even if I ordered one now, it would be at least a year before I could start it...got a slms+ on the table along with the 16 step seq, 1v/oct board, sample hold, a key board to ...
