a new noisebox design (with sample&schematic)

[FUZZZZzzzz]

hi guys..

UPDATED!!!!

I made my first schematic ever.. so hopefully its not that bad
will update any mistakes obviously.


im working on a noisebox and want to share my thoughts so far.


sorry, its still a breadboard version.. but it also makes lovely beats and weird glitches.

heres some inboard laptop mic recording:

im working on a layout..but should be easy to put on breadboard:

ic1 = tl 072
ic2 = lm 386
p4 = 5kA (sorry forget to put it on there)

output = lug5 on ic 2..
works on 9v

no input needed

Interesting. If I could make one comment, I would like to encourage you to post your projects as schematics. They are interesting but extremely difficult to read and understand the way they're drawn.

I believe DIY layout creator, which I think you're using, has schematic capabilities. Also, MFOS has a really simple online schematic program. I think having schematics available would get more people to build them, make layouts, and suggest mods. 

Keep up the good work!

thanks for the reply Taylor!.. and you're absolutely right.. I have no technical background so everything is based on trial and error and is born on the breadboard.
i will try to translate my finds in a more universal language

well... just ' finished' my first schematic.. let me know if you guys find any mistakes

things i need to fix
:
01. (yes, totally forgot the output (pin5 of lm386).. will update after needed sleep and a day of work tomorrow)
02. pin 6 goes to 9v not pin 5.

Ok, that's easier to follow. Much better than my first schematic! The one big change I'd make is that, when you draw dual or quad opamps, or other ICs that have multiples of something in them, it's more readable to draw the individual opamps where they need to be, rather than drawing it as a monolithic chip. This helps to understand the signal flow, and also it tends to make things less cluttered, because there are fewer lines overlapping so it's easier to keep straight what's going where.

That's a pretty unorthodox circuit. Might be cool to make some touch points coming out of there, so you can "play" the circuit with your fingers directly.

thanks for the tip.. i had never seen a monolithic chip schematic before, but its easier to begin with I guess (when you're used to layout).. that schematic program is pretty easy to start with btw.. touchpoints are also a nice option.. a bit like a kraakdoos (cracklebox).
