Hello
I'm new here, and quite new to bending.... I have just finished bending a casio SA-8 and its awesome!
its great as a random noise generator. I have put a glitch switch with pot/two body contacts/reset switch and fitted an output jack with a pot aswell so its good to wack strait on to minidisc ready for sampling......
last week I bought the reed ghazala book and it had an SA-2 in it and it had similar bends to what I had used, so you guys will probably be aware of these bends aswell.....
anyway to the point.. I have started a Yamaha PSS190 and for a while I could'nt find anything of interest just some variations on the sound but nothing worth bothering with, I have searched various places on the net for info with no luck...but while lurking around places like these I am slowly picking up info which is helping....
This yamy has no FM chip only the larger one IC? CPU?.........I recently found a few more interesting bends but still nothing that compares to the SA-8....I have put in two body contacts = crazy distortion pitch drop thingy/ and a two way unlocking switch = pitch-noise variations (if I find more points like these I guess I could incorporate a patch bay...maybe
Ok..........so here is the obligatory newbie question - Has anybody had any experience with bending one of these and can shed a little light on what to look for on an FMless board? or have I just aquired a donkey?
any info will be greatly appreciated.....thanks
