Circuit Bent Red Toy Keyboard

This is a really cheap toy keyboard my buddy Johnny picked up at CVS drug store (I Think). I helped out a little on this one but I made him do all the work. Sounds pretty killer now.

[potar]

oh it had an audio out, that is the main reason to open these stupid toys up.

[fluffybunnyrainbow]

how do you get the body contacts to make it make that sound, do you connect it to a wire?

[potar]

yup, you connect a wire between resistors and/or capacitors, ground, power, etc.. pretty much if you touch the circuit board and it makes a funny sound you can run a wire off that sound and mount it..

good luck!

the dryer noise is for industrial background. cool.

and the plane fly over as well,.... loved that neighborhood near the LB Airport.

I have a very similar one, is the brand Excite or something?

[potar]

no brand on this one, not even on the box.. it was 6.99 at CVS.. back says "© all rights reserved" "made in china"

nice bend man,try adding an audio out so you can run it through an effects processor. You would be amazed with what you can get those things to do. I have a video on my channel with a keyboard alot like this.

actually instead of buying body contacs i've resorted to using spare bass and guitar strings leftover from fellow musicians, it prevents waste and looks and works great once you get the hang of it, ima have to post some of my work here soon. love the benders!

pretty much the simplest, cheapest and easiest feature in circuit bending.
