Music From Outer Space, Weird-Sound-Generator

Got Lunch?

This is a WSG (weird sound generator) from the schematics at Music From Outer Space.

It's the double version plus analog filter.

It's basically 2 Square waves with variable Width and Freq, controlling 2 more Square waves with variable Width and Freq. Then the output gets summed through a simple Bandpass Filter.

Very analog sounding, even if only 9 volts. I also added a nice bend between the two chains of oscillators for nice chaotic intermodulation.

Built into a Kid's game's case that looks like a lunchbox...

...I love how it hinges and stands up like a MiniMoog!

Atari Punk Console in Analog Joystick

Don't let mum catch you wiggling with it....

An Atari Punk Console built into an analog joystick. X and Y axis control the stepped oscillator, and the Fire Button connects the Battery. Pots are wired in parallel to joystick as coarse trims to use in conjunction with the included mechanical fine trim adjusters. Also features 1/4" line out and Silver Atari Panel ripped from a busted Atari Jr Console.

Only downside is I have a bad habit of holding it over my crotch as I wiggle away furiously...

it makes baby Jesus cry...
