S-CAT 0022 - CIRCUIT BENT CASIO VL-TONE

[oldschoolhunter]

is this suppose to be some new kind of music, CAUSE IT'S REALLY BORING LAME.

[PHONICPOTION]

@oldschoolhunter No it is not supposed to be a new kind of music, it is a demonstration of a circuit bent Casio VL-1.

Was my first loving toy... later comes The Casio MT 46 courtesy of my father, 25 years later my son broke the mt 46.

if i mailed you my vl-tone could you guys set it up like this for me? i'm in the uk too.

[PHONICPOTION]

Have you seen the 10 mod version yet? You can find it on our site. Lets us know and we can discuss a price with you.

[PHONICPOTION]

We do not have enough time too keep building, demoing and selling these machines. No sun here in the UK.

I have always wanted to know how the vl 1 goes and how low. I had a keyboard that sounded like this with kermit the frog on it that went down to a medium low G and up to a medium hi B.

sweet man

[PHONICPOTION]

Have you had time to watch the more recent S-CAT videos of our 10-mod Casio VL-1's? They really kick!

[Colbat45]

You guys really did this in only 2 hours. wow

[PHONICPOTION]

Search for our recent 10-mod Casio VL-1, we have just built one from start to finish in under 3 hours.

[Colbat45]

how much time usually goes in to circuit bending a machine such as this?

[PHONICPOTION]

This one would take about 2 hours, including the sides. The new S-CAT 10-mod VL-1 would take around 8 hours to complete at a steady pace but could be done in around 4.

I just bought this casio. Do you know any websites on how to learn to circuit bend? Like any thing I could read that you recommend? Thanks!.

[PHONICPOTION]

Sorry but we could not recommend any site for circuit bending Casios as we always just oen up the machines and find things out for ourselves, we tried a few yeas ago with other peoples findings but were never happy with the results.

[metropolis1927]

i'd suggest everyone who wants to learn how to bend casio vl-tones to google for "circuit benders forum uk" without quotes, as they have a tone of info about stuff other than vl-tones and vl-tones included. and UNLIKE THE VIDEO POSTER THEY SHARE THE PLANS EVEN OF STUFF THAT THEY SELL, AS DO ALMOST ALL CIRCUIT BENDERS, ITS COMMON PRACTICE TO DO SO AND THE VIDEO POSTER IS JUST BEING GREEDY, HE DOESNT CARE ABOUT THE ART OF CIRCUIT BENDING OR ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO CIRCUIT BEND HE CARES ABOUT CASH.

What the hell is going on here ?

[PHONICPOTION]

Could you be more dirrect with your question? And have you seen the recent VL-1 videos from us?

[PHAEDRIDER]

since this really a 1 vco analog synth, i'd say this isnt "bending " by definition.. this more like professional calculated modification! and it came out AWESOME!!!!! nice video!

[PHONICPOTION]

Take a look at the S-CAT 10 MOD VL-1 video, we have taken things a little further.

[enrevolll]

i want this..

[PHONICPOTION]

Search S-CAT in the musical instruments section on eBay uk. We have one with 9 modifications for sale.

[hansglutenburg]

does anyone know a decent effects machine that can be used with the VL-1?

[PHONICPOTION]

Yes all of the ones that use electricity as a power source!

[Shayu]

i'm too scared to hurt my casio to do this.

[PHONICPOTION]

We jumped wires from resistors to capacitors inside the unit and then fitted a switch in between them. ADSR is best when you keep inputting random numbers, so sorry we do not have any written down to give to you.
