Just ordered some stuff, cheers for that link. The Sci-fi sound effects generator looks cool as well.

Wasn't someone looking for a chicken sound to circuitbend? theres one on the 'Farmyard Animal Sounds Generator'

My advice is don't bother. I just received 3 kits from them on of which had a dead gate chip and another had a couple of dead transistors. When i actually got it working it was just rubbish.

I haven't tried the last one yet but i'm not holding out much hope.  :-\

All these kits seem to be sourced from Russia, at least all the text on the back is in cyrillic script. Any static sensitive chips are just wrapped up in aluminium foil  :-\

On a positive note i got the 'robot voice' ring modulator working fine and its pretty good.
