atari punk console + 8 step baby sequencer

home build

[@Kansas_Joel_]

Thank you for actually using the Atari Punk Console! Most videos have people talking about the console with almost no time playing it. The sound is great and your proficient playing ability helps highlight the awesome capabilities of the 555 timer.

Chris, if you like step sequencers, I have a page where I build and demo them.

​@@SarahbuildsstepsequencersHi, what is your page for building and demoing sequencers?

@@timothypnolan Hello I have exactly these 2 IO chips on my hands now and I want to make same/similar small project, would you be able to help me out on what to search for If I want to recreate what you did? Really nice box!

[@engineersadda4955]

Sir can u plz give the circuit diagram of it sir

[@johngalvin6352]

Awesome. Looks and sounds amazing.

[@marbyyy7810]

Assuming that’s a lpf in the top corner?

[@illegalquantity]

It's okay, but there's no sense of an 8 step sequencer. Minimum 16 step is useable in music making.

[@johncoops6897]

You can make it 16 step using 2 x 4017's cascaded, or alternatively use 2 x 74HC595 Shift Registers.

I am trying to build a really similar Thing to yours, and i'd love to know how did you manage to hook the Sequencer's CV to the Atari Punk Console. I'd really like to know that, if you could provide me some schematics on it, that'd be even better. Thanks!

[@256k_]

I have a question about this... Is the APC (556) automatically "off" when the CV input is 0? because i was under the impression that as soon as you connect it, it starts oscillating and when you pass the CV it just changes pitch... I hope you can clarify this for me because i want to build one soon...

[@theceoofgibson2563]

Perhaps the switches have one terminal connected to the output and another connected to ground?

[@therealajahn]

awesome jam.

[@starmidia6235]

muito bom ... pena que os caras sao ruins de tempos musicais e nao conseguem gravar uma sequencia legal

[@MusicDiscoveryLab]

I wanted to build something similar to this but with a built in delay. One day I'll give it a shot. Did you use kits to build this or did you source everything yourself?

[@artekworkshop9243]

ill upload a delay a tutorial soon in my chanel

[@dikki8090]

Sorry sir, permission to ask, if you want the LED to turn on for 1 second and turn off for 5 seconds and you can adjust it to turn on for 5 seconds and turn off for 1 second. 1 second is also 1 second. Only the frequency can be set... please advise. Thank you

[@TheAmerind]

This is awesome, looking for something like this but with a keyboard, having trouble finding schematics

[@bartconinckx]

you can't really tune this, so that would make no sense

[@gabho-lopez]

Hello, the ATARI is great, do you have any tutorial videos describing how you built it? or maybe you will have the schematic to see what electronic parts you used. I'm new to synthesizers and your project blew my mind! thank you!

[@thenewsonatrain]

I'm blew to synthesizers and your project new my mind!

[@markjclinton]

Do you recall if the potentiometers are audio taper, or maybe a mixture of tapers?

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

They where linear ones :)

[@markjclinton]

@@KrisTemmermanNP Awesome, thank you for the swift reply!

[@y74y74]

please, give a schematic

[@alaindubernard5065]

I have requested same informations but it seems that we are still waiting ?

[@abyad000]

@@alaindubernard5065 you know guys, that google can help a lot. just type in 'atari punk console step sequencer' and you should find something similar. Look for schematics with 555 (or 556) and CD4017 ICs

[@naderhumood1199]

Lovely apc.....hh. thanks very much. SIR.

[@therealajahn]

I don't know if anyone has told you, but you forgot to add the supersonic kick drum.

[@ianbuilder]

actually pretty lit

[@BryanDenham]

cool project , thank you for the demo. im going to try to make one too

[@nsmnsm3550]

Hey man, Really awesome. I have build the oscillator and the sequencer but how can i connect the? i have the signal comping from ic 4017 and it goes to potentiometer. how to go from there back to the oscillator? would be glad if you can help! thx

[@ducktacular8]

Every note that you want will need a different RC value on the 555. you could use transistors so that the outputs of your sequencer go to the base of a transistor and close the circuit for that resistor/capacitor

[@robotlove3000]

Beautiful!

[@nahuelmusker]

Hola!, podrias pasarme la pagina donde bajaste el pcb o el diagrama esquematico?

[@hernandobolanos798]

Top secret bu very good prototype

[@punkerfor25yrs]

That's dope

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

Nice design and box, Kris. And of course, well done on the circuit as a whole. Are the two speakers outputting the same sound, or is it stereo, somehow? Just curious. Also, did you make and stain the box or was it a cigar box, etc.? Thanks, and well done -- I could've listened to this a lot longer! 😊🙋🏻

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

Hi Sarah, Thanks! :) no, its just mono output, two speakers looked cooler in my design ;) I made the box myself. It isn't stained, its the natural color of the wood, just some varnish. I don't know what kind of wood it is, but It was resawn from old factory shelves by a friend of mine... Thanks for your comment :)

[@rashpeg]

Grate job!

[@genarofernandezkuchta9860]

Cool

[@jw4889]

Really nice

[@jimmihenry]

OMG will there be a tutorial how to build this. One of the little things that make happy:). I'm have no idea of electronics but i wont to build this thing. Is there a plan of this device. Would be so nice to have a plan i mean schematic. Please share.

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

Here you go: owyheesound.com/sequencer.php I just added switches on the output of the sequencer. I think it was the first electronics thing I ever made. Its not that hard, so go for it! :)

[@jimmihenry]

Thank You :)

[@lowgrind7076]

Thats awesome man

[@Fluburtur]

is it bad that I immediately spotted the lens cap from a nikon 1 series camera?

[@electronicguy4550]

No

[@fab9114]

great job ! !

[@Chainlinkable]

Wonderful!

[@alaindubernard5065]

Please do you have electronic schematics ??? Many Thanks

[@Nuvhandra]

Any tutorial?

[@KrisTemmermanNP]

Sorry, not for now. Just google "atari punk console + 8 step baby sequencer" and you will find plenty of info :)

[@Nuvhandra]

Thank you for your quick reply, its ok, im going to build the "Baby 10" Sequencer and an Atari Punk Console...... btw nice sequencer it look really nice, pretty cool

Awesome project man ! I would love to build one like this. Do you have any electronic schematics with all the components that you used on it ? Thank you, and keep on rockin it :D

These are common projects if you search online. But here's a link for an instructable for a 2-in-1 pack lol www.instructables.com/id/Atari-Punk-Console-With-a-Baby-8-Step-Sequencer/
