556 Noise Maker (APC) Sequenced by 4017 with 555 clock

[rikkeeked]

Sounds like dial-up connection, cool! =)

junk!

1:07 nice sound :D

[Greenselves]

how do you plug the sound maker in the clock??

[bobby1829387]

@Greenselves Is isn't an actual clock, the clock he is referring to is the speed that the 555 chip turns it on and off at.

bobby1829387 is right. Sorry for not being more clear. The "clock" is, in fact, and astable 555 circuit. It tells the sequencer when to switch to the next step. So it's not actually plugged into the soundmaker. 555=>sequencer (4017)=>APC. Hope that makes sense.

Damn dude you need to sell this shit. I'd buy it.

Hey ok now it works but it only steps through 2 steps. Dont know whats wrong with it. i used different potis on every step is this the problem? And why is there a resistor between cv out and the apc?? hmm

Thank you

[robfrosty]

@lastkidontheblock if it only steps through two steps you need to change the pin you are reseting to on the 4017. The 4017 offers you 1 through 10 steps. I'll have to check on that resistor on the cv out... not sure haha

Hey, nice work. Gonna have to try one of these on my breadboard, just as soon as I've drawn schematics for all the others I've been testing that is! Thanks for all the links in your info.

[itstaylorr]

ahhh, quite informative! i just put together a 4017 light chaser and was wondering exactly how to hook it up to an apc or other 555 oscillator.

good vid, i'll post a response soon

Nice ! What pin does the 4017 output's cv out connect to on the APC? Thanks .

[robfrosty]

4017 goes to 556 via pin 2 - after the resistor. Let me know if you need help with any other connections : )

[allowishus664]

which resistor? what schematic are you using?

nice work!
