I know I've already said this several times on this forum but Nic Collins book is an essential information source for anyone who wants to get into electronics, hardware hacking and circuit bending.
Kitsophrenic, you have made a great example of what is possible after ingesting just a few pages of this amazing book.
I'll be making something very similar when I've finished casing and wiring my spring reverb unit. Which incidently was based on information in the same book! Oh, then I've got to bend my DD-5, re-wire my guitar, make another dub siren, finish my modular SK-1, do something with the 6 echo pedals under my desk, (which I'm sure are breeding!) Fuck knows how many keyboards I now own or what I will do with them all, I've then got to repair all my mates broken stuff, bend my voice changer, make another sequencer, and also bend or modify numerous other electronic devices which I'll have undoubtedly acquired during the finalisation of the above!
Last April, 2009, I watched a documentary on Youtube about circuit bending, previous to that I had never even looked at a soldering iron. Since then, with the help of this forum and Nic Collins I have gone manically insane!
