Loosely based on the Atari Punk Console with some custom tweaks and an LFO front end, this box makes a ridiculous amount of different sounds (mp3 coming soon), all from three 555s.

This is a 10 step analog sequencer, which basically steps through 10 different voltage levels that are set by the black knobs. The output control voltage and trigger signals are typically used to control pitch, filters, drum triggers and an endless number of other parameters on other synths.

This unit has a VCA (voltage controlled amplifier), triangle and square wave generator and AR (Attack / Release) envelope shaper. Together, they can be used to add tremolo or AM (amplitude modulation) effects to audio signals, and also add attack and release ramps to control signals. There are two summing CV inputs, as well as an “Instant On” button that maxes out the control voltage. The triangle output can be adjusted into a quasi square wave with adjustable duty-cycle (% on or off in each cycle). This gives you a chopper effect that can be used to fade out a sound by chopping larger and larger chunks each cycle. This was developed along with J. Lucas McKay
