Newbie circuit bending Letterland Musical Alphabet

Hi,

Sorry new to circuit bending 

Just starting out on a Letterland toy, i've included a 470ohm potentiometer which bends the clock speed / pitch to slow the samples and music down. I've prodded around for anything else and I can't seem to get anything else out. Any tips? I would like to get some glitches of some sort but not getting anywhere. What parts am I best to use for this? I've so far got the 470 pots but they are not doing much else.

Thanks,
Dan

If its the one with 'naughty nick' and 'munching mike' etc then thats about all you can do with it apart from adding a line out

Yeah that's the one, I checked out the sounds section on the site and there are some pretty freaky effects on this one. Know how to do this?

[Circuitbenders]

most of those effects can be done just using the pitch control although there appears to be some kind of crash button on that one as well. Unfortunately i have no recollection of how its installed, it might just connect across the pitch connections to give a quick moment of zero resistance when you press it,

or maybe not..........

Thanks i'm looking into the crash button.. just don't know what it is. Any preference on what crash button I need to do the job?
