Guest covenant Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Greetings, Couldn't resit. Today at a cheat retro shop, I've bought this: HI-LO 1 HI-LO 2 Was so dirty cheap! €2 It has a ON and OFF switch, and a HI - LO switch that allows me to change the octave. The leds light up when a key is pressed and tt tuns on a 9V battery. Can't wait to bend it. Tomorrow gotta buy some switches. Gona make a line out, and a pitch potenciometer. Damn, I'm the operator with my pocket HI-LO something... Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/8395-circuit-bending/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest covenant Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Damn, bad news... Today went to take a coffe with my girlfriend and showed her the Hi-Lo. Her face... She just kept saying "This is so cute!!!" and then I told her that I will rip it's guts, add 2 distortion switches, one vibrato, one line out and pitch changer, and how many holes I was going to make on it, and then... she almost started crying with the Hi-Lo on her arms... Man... I gave it to her... Mental Note = Bending and EMO girls don't match :| Mental Note Nº2 = Bend in the secret of the Gods, hidden in you dark and scary basement... Damn, gotta find a new toy Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/8395-circuit-bending/#findComment-170381 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AdamRMcC Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Bought this recently and having lots of fun. Wish I had the patience and a steady enough hand to do the bending myself ;) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/8395-circuit-bending/#findComment-2178349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ciderfeks Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I was gonna ask how the Japanese phonics thing turned out but then I noticed that's eight year old news… so I won't ask.I recently bent this cheap iPad toy which has a cool easter egg that switches it from English language to Chinese, which is nice. Also added a pitch change mod, a patchable LFO, a ring modulator and some pretty blue lights.
