3 314 package, light toy, sk-5

A package if new components came in the mail today from Tayda Electronics. It contained a a stock of resisters and capacitors and a large range of all sorts of things.

Enough capacitors and resistors to last a lifetime.

 Greencaps for Stanes' Sovtek Bigmuff fuzz.

 Here are two kinds of knobs from Tayda Electronics (Left the right): Packaged Boss Style Silver Top (Like it was when packaged, these were 39c each), The same knob again unpackaged, The right two knobs are Davies 1510 Clones, Cream and Black.

 1/4'' Jacks for the mixer project.

386 and LED driver chips in their respective spongeys.

Potentiometers for the mixer.

3DPT foot-switch for the Sovtek Muff. Quite nice quality.

Various switches for different things.
I got to making Bel a little light toy on request, The circuit is simple; A battery that charges two capacitors in parallel, then is discharged when a button is pressed. Depending on which button is pressed the RGB LED changed colour. Different combinations of pressing buttons give different effects. (the RGB LED is common Cathode)

Here's a little nokiadoc of the toy in operation.


Here's a little jam from a while back, with Bill and Stanes'. Bill is using his Casio Sk-5 to sample chords I play on guitar.



Working on some pedals.

Yesterday I had a play round on the Sk-5 and figured out the record/play features. We might mod it sometime.
