these things are pure evil ha, may I ask where you found these?

[1nertiaticESP]

@CaptainQuietmouth dealextreme dot . its an electronic site based in hong kong. cheep but be prepared for long wait time on delivery ;)

I just got this exact one, and all I can find is one pitch bend. You wouldn't have happened to take a photo of the bend spots, did you?

[1nertiaticESP]

@NH344 the resistor on the main circuit board is the pitch and the "vibrato" effect was found on the resistor under the wheel.

I gotta get me one of these.

@1nertiaticESP Hey thanks alot man, I truly appreciate the information im sitting here listening to this and I cant help but to be envious of all your wondeful machines dude, awesome stuff!

[1nertiaticESP]

@NH344 yes. just take off the black/colored wheel. you can put it back on with some glue. under the wheel there is a screw at the bottom that you can remove.

[NH344]

@1nertiaticESP Thanks for the help, but I can't figure out how to get to the resistor. Did you remove the wheel and if so, how?

[1nertiaticESP]

@NH344 there's a vibrato effect that you can get by messing around with the resistor that's on the wheel. that and the pitch bend where all i could find. good luck!

On the box to your left, is that a photocell you're using to manipulate the sound with the distance of your hand?
