I got one of these a few days ago and it seems to be pretty good on the glitchfactor and bad on the crashfactor. I've been looking for a loop for the past 2 hours to no avail... is my quest in vain?

I hope not cos it's a beast when hooked up to some delay/overdrive.

Also just got one of these secondhand for four quid.

I haven't been bending that long but we'll see what happens...!

Ouch..
A bit expensive IMHO if there's only one bend.

heh heh s'pose so - not sure what they go for new - about a tenner I think - just shows how crap I am at Car Boot Haggling!

Scouring youtube it looks like there's a pitch bend and a glitch to be found

if I don't fry it coz they sound volatile.

If anyone has any advice b4 I start it would be appreciated!

You can pitch it by making a 555 timer circuit which controls the CPU clock (you'd have to remove the default one. Google "sailormouth")
You can glitch it by shorting the clock. This is very unstable, and that's the ONLY bend.

oh dear.

sounds like a bit of a dud buy then for me.

I just saw a few on youtube so i figured it wouldn't be too tricky...

googled sailormouth and got this wierd danger message up - followed the link anyway and there was just a page saying error - and nothing hidden in source code either.

Got 555 circuit stuff but wouldn't know where to start otherwise...

[Tyler1144]

I got one off amazon, all i can find is pitch up, pitch down and crash!! Does anyone have a schematic? I see crazy effects on youtube but mine doesnt seem to have any. Does anyone know where they are?
