got one of these yetsreday for peanuts, I've found a few interesting tones and distortions, but I can't find any info anywhere on the net, anyone ever happened to bend one of these things? Or even have a clue how it genertaes the rather reedy noises it makes.
square wave synthesis i would think.
it will probably be a bit of a subtler bender than a sample based synth but you should find some lovely distortions and sound tweaks in there. does it have a tempo slider? awesome for pitch/tempo related bends. also look out for bends on the drums. i love opening up the envelopes on analogy blip rhythms and feeling the rush. :D
i really like the older casio squarewave synths. i find them very musical and quite warm even with that reedy casioness.
sorry not to have more specific bends for you but good luck exploiring!
I found some quite nice fuzzy distortions and a lovely phase effect, will keep on poking away. bigest issue is the complese lack of space for controls, may have to remove the speaker.
Ended up fining about three bends. A gated delay kind of thing operated by a toggle swithc, a feedback loop set off by two body cotacts and the most interesting bend which is a massive pitch bend down, with a pot to control things it essentially lets you detune the whole keyboard. I'll be posting pics and stuff on my myspace blog.
