Psycho Bear Music Center - circuit bending project

Psycho Bear Music Center

NO EXTERNAL EFFECTS ADDED. Everything comes from this little baby modified by me.

It's my circuit bending project. I converted 'Lucky Bear Music Center' into a 'Psycho Bear Music Center' (let's call it like that). :)

The machine almost died when I was searching for some interesting bends. It stopped making sounds so I had to solder some wire between two points on the circuit board just to make it work (but it sometimes behaves in unpredictable way). Then I proceeded with two interesting bends. It was very very spontanous project and the results are beyond my expectations.

I'm a musician, not electronics engineer but I just like to do-it-yourself.

Remember it if you're gonna ask me about some technical stuff. :)

Working time: 15 hours
Modifications added: 1. jack output, 2. jack output/built-in speaker select switch, 3. circuit bending switch, 4. circuit bending potentiometer
Total cost: about 40 Polish zlotys (11,5 euro)

Oh baby! It's so nice to hear someone with a musical ear doing a little bending. Inspiring!

@gjivanovic 1. you solder the output jack to the two speaker terminals.

2. no, it is not dangerous at all. just like plugging a regular guitar into an amp!

hope that helps.

cool, ive started my own first project, just some questions please....

- where did you sold the output jack??? ti the speaker?

- do you know if it is risky or dangerous to plug it to a guitar speaker??
