So the counter is done!!! :D it needs some improvements and a tiny repair but its not gunna turn off from now, in a months time or so il have another update on how its gone and some improvements i have made on the circuits and this and that as there are some, if i was to do a mk2 i would definitely rethink but its here now and i just need to build on it!
Samples from this!
today its a weird one, i have been qworking out how to do livestreams whilst filming just more opportunities to do so then. i have a couple of projects im going to be doing next week out of old magazines also as i have now got the means to shoot HD livestreams so it makes sense to stream and capture the video. (this one wont be HD though sadly as im using my camera to actually film!)
im building the counter in this vid and also filming the build a bit of an experiment!
Also a musi...

yeah i dont know wether to have it as a red monolith or a 19 inch rack both have their perks.

taking a look at the project i have for the upcoming video! same old storey of miscalculating the amount of work involved, blind optimist. i was hoping to have this counter done and video up this weekend just passed but after 30 hours of soldering on friday and saturday it seemed it was going to take a little longer than anticipated!!! got about another 30 hours of 3d printing to go (cant wait for infinite z axis conveyor belt printers to be readily available so i can get a good nights sleep ...

so this side of christmas this past week and a half i have found myself with a project on my hands that is a lot bigger than anticipated, finally over the hump and nearly finished! will be done by next weekend for a vid soon so i can chat about it! but in the meantime i thought of something for a video this weekend im building in the stream. im not sure wether its a naff idea so i may fail miserably! but i guess watch me try building a stripboard layout from an extremely fuzzy schematic. and ...

new year, so yeah gunna try every week on the museum of everything else channel just looking through oddities, sometimes magazines like the above cus you do come across some gems! like the magneton :O pretty good haha, wear some magnetic gloves and you're laughing!.
could probably even turn it into a midi controller.. aaaah damn now im looking at reed switches ha
2021-01-08 10:28:43 +0000 UTC View Post
i had a brain block ar 4:30 called the blinder the carry out my bad!
as for the pull down resistor im just gunna plomp one on the clock in so i can easily reset all of the counters to 0 when it turns on first.
also an update on the enclosure im planning to put it in a big 19ich rack i have on wheels and im planning to use this as the first power backup does anyone have experience with these? any good?
Here we go!!! HAPPY NEW YEARRR.

For starters please let me know if you would rather me sharpie out your username on the wall! however im sure if you wanted to be anonymous you probably did a username like "good old dick tingly" haha.
more progress on the bouncing balls for a video next week! and an epiphany with the memory core module! maybe its a stupid idea, but having not delved into it yet it sort of makes sense.
this just turned up. im hoping itll work as these sorts of memory devices have always fascinated me and would be cool to make it do something :O.
i broke my laptop screen the other day when getting ready for the christmas livestream and this rather silly purchase is the reason im holding off getting it repaired haha, think of it like the equivalent of 80 guinnesses i haven't drank because the pubs have been shut for the past 6 months, that how i make myself feel better about this at-lea...

its not perfect but needed to get it sorted as tomorrow it becomes obsolete ha. just the livestream direct recording without talking or tuning spaces MERRY CRIMBO. my fave bit is definitely 28:20 green sleeves. a guilty pleasure to sequence that then jam it :D

this is just a reminder! in about an hour, it is public, but if all goeas to plan ill be able to put the direct recording up of it tomorrow minus the talking :)

so I have a plan for a Crimbo livestream currently figuring out all of the songs now. but yeah its moved forward to Christmas Eve 8PM GMT. I'm gunna be doing about 2 hours of Christmas song sequences going into a bunch of synths, im gunna soften the sounds up quite a bit and make it all sound nice and analog! and will have the full recording mixed and up for download before Christmas morning!.

2020-12-10 16:02:09 +0000 UTC View Postright hello!! so this week im moving flat.... AGAIN! 3rd time this year madness!. but yeah because of this and keeping projects moving im a bit against the wall, I figured I hadn't done a builder livestream yet this month so I'll put a vote up for a livestream tomorrow (10th dec)! approximately 6:30PM GMT.
a musical livestream, or a builders livestream.
VLOG 172, sounds from code name "big mumma" delay project and codename "hot chilli hot sauce" counter project.
BTW as to not confuse what noise the actual delay is making, there is only a single sine wave going into it, all over sounds are coming from the delay
There will be a builders livestream this week I will share the live link a few hours before as I have a few projects I'm trying to get through so ill fit it around them. got a big backlog at the minute haha, all of them hav...

as promised! part 5 of the Modular Megamixes! starts off with a short excerpt of the vocoder safety I did at the start of the livestream not last week but the week before, and yeah then goes into some highlight from that livestream too. it doesn't include any chunks from last weeks, those will probably make it into a merge for the next one!
PEACE.
