Yamaha PSS9 Circuitbent.

Possibly the first successful PSS9 bend? I've heard nothing much about anybody else attempt this keyboard, which is a shame, as you can bend it running on a power supply as the circuitry is both simple and bombproof.

My extra features are...
1) 2 x potentiometers which mix in glitches galore (like the envelope sound you hear).
2) Buzzer switch. The Keyboard buzzes.
3) Single coil pickup. YES! The pickup out of a strat copy, wired into the PCB. I Cannot really demonstrate this as I need an amp, and it feedbacks when activated by the...
4) Switch with white tape around it!

There is no bends which destroyed it, so just bend and bend and bend! Just fit random pots and switches.

Awesome beat.s at the end!

Hell yeah, this thing goes into free-form electronic sound sometimes!

@Meddled i think i might have fried mine.

I've got one of these - where did you put the potentiometer to get the envelope sound?

nice one! picked this up a pss9 recently, everywhere Ive read says it's pretty much unbendable.

I couldn't find much inside, could you do me a big favor and show me the bends you found could ya ?

Can you define "successful"??

Also, the weird out-of-control sounds at the end sound like parts from Halleluhwah!
