i decided i wanted another anlog sequencer. i wasnt going to pay the insane money that they go for now... so i spent a bout 2 months perusing the d i y stuff. Music From Outer Space was the choice. it was a seriously a bit over my head at first (even with some pretty decent understanding from repairs and such) , but i was deteremined.. so i stepped up my game..:)
anyway it took about 2 months on and off (and alot of waiting for the correct parts) since i had to do all the sourcing myself.. also it has led to buildin another 2 rows of 16 for cv mod control sources and also working on plans for a 3 row trigger sequncer to go with these 2 units as well. all peripheral units are powered from the main unit (1.5-2 amp ps and distro..) so i can power a whole modular or sequencer array and such off of it. and i will. no doubt. :) i used enclosures that were from other scrap things... like odd 3 space vu meters, a weird medical thing that i dont know what i did. (guts were out when i got to it.. so it was only the case) and scrounged blank faceplates from various places.. so basicly i set about trying to make an analog sequencer to replace my traded sem 8 step one..
all machining/hacking/cutting op.. and alterations were done by me. using basic power tools and a dremel and lots of small files etc... i had the ovrelay for the faceplates printed at a digital place here in pittsburgh that can do control panels for industrial machines and such and it was a very very reasonable cost(it makes the machine look as well as it fucntions) ..
well it seems i kinda traded up a bit.. this one crazy. and will only continue to get crazier. enjoy and pleas ask any question if you're interested in doing on from MFOS. its awesome.
