has any one bent a Vtec music major ? grandstand major minor?
« on: May 19, 2008, 12:40:32 AM »

ive just got a music major which looks the same as a grandstand major minor keyboard.

ive looked at the sailmounth site  (currently off line) which shows all the wiring and circuit layout but no bends has any one bent one of these things ? ive opend her up but i havent found any bends as yet but then ive only tried strieght wire jumpers and no caps which usally helps with cheeper toys.

It has analog drums sounds (kick, snare hi hat) ive found a constant white noise bend but i cant even find a resitor thet controlls the pitch of the analog drums ? still it has a singing voise tone that suits circuit bent stuff so well.

I've certainly seen bent ones but i've never done one myself as they are just way to expensive on ebay and i've never seen one in a charity shop or elsewhere  Cry

yeah i paid 66quid for this but ive always wanted one circuit bending seems to go in fashions as i #ve just got a
speak and write for £3.50 a talking teacher for £5 and a speak and maths for £6 of ebay ive seem alll of these go for much more only months ago anyway ive had  a good poke around the music major and ive found

1 gitch bend
1 speed up voice
1 extra output (same pitch as master out but differnt tone)
3 trigger inputs for the analog drums
a gate output that triggers my doepfer (no ampli needed) evey time a note is played
constant dull or bright white noise
that is so far well worth aving a go if you will pay the price

I have a marked up picture of the main PCB I can mail you as it is just a bit to big to attach to this post.

Cheers
