Switch left : condensator + to clock reistor - to ground

Switch right : on/off pitch

Pitch : bridge on clock resitor with pot

That is phenomenal.

There's a huge range of these available too, what pot did you use?

Also, what value capacitor (assuming that's what you mean by condensator?) was used? Cheers.

the pot is a cheap radioohm 100k, and the capacitor (or condensator) is a tantalum 105L that means 0,01uF .

take care because many of this little device are same looking but some is not bendable :)

I try with other capacitor, but this distortion i like more, if you use normal electrolitic you get more fuzzy like sound !

I'd be really interested in seeing the insides of that if you could stick some photos up, it sounds great.

105 would be 1μF - 10(00000)pF

You read them the same way as resistors - the first two digits are the value and the last is the multiplier.
