Atari Punk Console with Mini-Sequencer/Arp Thing

Atari Punk Console based on the Forrest M. Mims III schematic with the addition of a 4017 for a 4-step sequence and a 555 as clock. iPod packaging for a case.

How many hertz do the 555 generates?

[robfrosty]

@TheRincopallino A pretty wide range as you can hear. Is that what you mean?

@robfrosty Mine is working great. I'm still playing with values a little bit. Just wanted to say your schematic is all good except i'm pretty sure the 1N4148 between the power and sequencer is drawn backwards. I'm going to add a toggle between the APC and some 4093 based oscillators. Thanks again these things are awesome! My family hates me though. :D

@Prohl84 Great! Glad the schematics work out for you! Yeah, things are probably drawn backwards. I'm not very pro at drawing schematics :/ Glad I'm not the only pissing off the loved ones with bleeps and drones.

@robfrosty You should try a program called Fritzing!

[robfrosty]

@inblackn Checking it out now! This is pretty awesome. Thanks for the heads up!

brilliant sound spectrum.would be brilliant if you could send schematics.

nice one!

[Dodexas]

Could you please drop the schematic?

[inblackn]

@robfrosty If you have a schamatic of this made on fritzing please post it!

[beefinator14]
