Title: Finally Finished SK-1 w/ pics
Post by: AttDestroyers on November 11, 2007, 01:36:47 AM
I put this off for a long time because I wanted to figure out a unique way to bend it. So, I came up with the idea to house the patch points and such in a cassette deck about a month ago. I like it.

This really is fantastic.  I assume the tape player still works?
How about all those pots, what are they for?  I can guess at a few, but I'm curious.

Thanx,

Yeah, the tape player works well. The 2 black pots can be patched into for control of the the bends, the red ones are poly, skew, and pitch. the silver one is for the tape/sk-1 output. turn it left, it fades to the sk-1, turn it right, it fades to the tape player.

So can all of the bends be controlled by the black knobs?  The wiring for that must be gnarly.

The black knobs can control whatever bend you have patch to them. for example, in the pictures, you can see i have a set of points patched to the top knob. that knob will then control the amount of that bend. The wiring was fun and took forever.
