Making the Analog Wave Twister Part 2 for eurorack module

[@1VperOctave]

Hello Markus. I am really enjoying this project. Following your thought processes and development really inspire confidence for me to experiment. So watching you make something is as much fun as watching you break something (down)!

[@truthseeker3907]

Thank You And Keep Up The Good Work Markus Fuller! Thumbs up Indiana USA.

[@pbartmess]

It's very generous to share your invention with us! I would love to watch you making more things.

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Patrick. I do make quite a few projects but never really think about recording the process. I shall do more.

[@Slider2732]

Really nice to hear more of your music and the build looks great ! Make more things squire, it's inspirational and fun to watch the process.

[@zanderxymox]

Love your content Markus! I always enjoy watching you build / repair anything with circuits that make noises.

[@jacobsnedaker8993]

This is a fantastic little series, I've been getting into modular recently and I'm a programmer and this is exactly what I've interested in for the last few weeks but I haven't managed to really look into what it would actually take to develop my own modules. This has really helped me connect the dots and pointed me in the right direction, I'd love to see more of this in the future!

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Jakob. I will try and make more of these creations in the future. programming is my downfall and I really need to get into learning new things.

[@Natemasterflex]

Fantastic episode! Would love to see more like this!!!!!

[@mixolydian2010]

Great stuff Marcus would love to see more like this. Enjoy your process as you work through them. Learn a lot. CHeers

[@MarcWeertsMusic]

Great video, and I absolutely LOVE the music! Absolutely gorgeous.

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Marc

[@zer0b0t]

Yes, I'd love to see more stuff developed by you, even if it's something simpler.

[@Neffers_UK]

This is cool, the demo you showed sounds like a nightmare in an 80's arcade, in a good way. Keep at it Markus. I enjoy all of your content, great channel.

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Neffers :-)

[@gay_milhouse1160]

This was a rad series. Inspiring to dig in and make some stuff.

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Jakob. I have a few ideas of things to make scribbled down in my book of ideas so theres more to come :-)

[@handmadeindustrial]

Yes more start to finish development builds! These are a great resource for the non-engineer, seeing how these things come about... I love designing things on the physical level also which you’ve made very clear as well. I assume that was laser printed documentation right on the front panel? Would be neat to do the same with a qr code or something small. Great videos!

[@cbmsysmobile]

Taking it apart, repairing it or building new, I look forward to your videos, they're always interesting.

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Alex

[@vegettoblue8705]

These Is freaking cool , the music too

[@markusfuller]

Thank Vegetto Blue much appreciated

[@davidjones9730]

Great Chanel! Love both the repairs and now the design and construction stuff, more please. I’d like to make a ‘simple’ Vocoder as a children’s toy perhaps this could be one of you projects... keep up the great videos.

[@markusfuller]

Thats a good idea David. I like Vocoders though they can be tricky to come up with a working circuit diagram.

[@DAVIDGREGORYKERR]

A Tayloe Mixer would let you mix different signals together and the best thing is the carrier input will take a square wave signal, the output frequency will be related to the clock input as the clock drives the 74AC74 which drives the 74HC152 which takes the 0,180,90,270 degrees inputs and suitably clocked will output the sum or difference

[@RandomNeeds]

keep up the good work, looking forward to more

[@markusfuller]

Thank you Ebrahim

[@kaostrip]

extra markus ! really cool project !

[@markusfuller]

Many thanks AXL trip

[@ThomasGrillo]

This was really amazing to get to hear what the lines were doing. Thanks for the video, and keep up the great works! :)

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Thomas. It is becoming a pandoras box. I keep on thinking of other ways to make it adding other ideas.

[@ThomasGrillo]

Indeed. That's how it starts. :)

[@poisonousbirds]

More of these please. Would have liked to hear its effect on audio, especially if it sounds ‘broken’

[@robertsyrett1992]

Making modules is awesome, man. Keep up the great work :)

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Robert. there is more to come soon.

[@mac.rodose]

love it markus! good on ya

[@markusfuller]

Thanks Mac Mr

[@TheRealSasquatch]

excellent video - will try and prototype this. thanks

[@markusfuller]

please make it smaller if you can.

[@PWMaarten]

Have you tried DC blocking caps on the inputs? This could result in better audio performance.

[@markusfuller]

Yes I have the AC/DC caps in place though I think I have come up with an idea to have another go at this to make it audio friendly.

[@clydesight]

Interesting and I like the background music very much!

[@markusfuller]

Thanks clydesight. I enjoy making the music as much as making the videos

[@tonyendre]

keep on building !

[@hubaswift7640]

I was browsing the world of synth DIY and came across Ken Stone's CGS CV Cluster. It seems to be a similar circuit creating the sum and difference of the two inputs. I thought it may be of interest. I haven't built it myself yet but will be including it in an upcoming project I have going on. Placing parts between controls is something I've done as well. A while ago I built a binary logic module that can be used to create semi-repeating melodies and perform virtually any logic function based off of input modulations and I did the same thing with my pcb. I'm still working out some kinks as I made a small mistake on the last board I designed (shorted two traces) I should have it up and running by the end of the weekend. I've always only done 5U DIY but am starting to get into euro DIY simply because it's so easy to get good looking front panels by using black silk-screened pcbs. Another thought I've had (though I'm unsure if it would actually be a good idea) is making the front panel and component board on the same pcb, where all components would be surface mount with potentiometers and jacks mounted through the pcb. Seems goofy, but at the same time I don't see why it couldn't work. Anyways, I really liked this two-part series. It's not often one can get to see the design/building/thought projects through videos like this. It's pretty neat! Thanks.

[@markusfuller]

Hi Jacob. theres a good video by mikeselectricstuff that explains the benefits of using PCB as panel material so yes it will work plus some eurorack modular companies use PCB material as top panel so they can add touch sensor areas. I did scribble down ideas of a SMT version of this but I wanted to make it so anyone could do it and SMT is a little difficult for some home hobbyists. I may come back to this project again one day as I want to make the audio work better and add some finer tuning.

[@hubaswift7640]

@@markusfuller Yes, I think I've actually already watched that video. Good luck with getting this thing up and running with audio!

[@AnalogDude_]

Jacob Pauls i have made a Eurorack module with a pcb "frontpanel" with copper text and grafix.

[@AnalogDude_]

Yup, atleast Make Noise Rene, Make Noise Pressure Points, Mutable instruments Ears

[@SethMabbott]

More, please!

[@markusfuller]

my head is full of ideas so will make more. I just need 9 days in my week to start catching up.

[@korneykretov4668]

Great project Markus! I think such module will be very useful with lfo`s and envelopes to create new modulation sources, and it will be good at audio rates as waveform processor if you share same cv to osc`s. And even as precision adder if you calibrate it correctly :)

[@markusfuller]

Yes I agree it really needs some sort of calibration.

[@Roderick_Legato]

5:00 Extremely cool! BTW, what is the white PCB material?

[@markusfuller]

Hello Roderick, the PCB is FR4 (fiberglass board) I bought it from a modelmaker I believe it is available in several different colours.

[@RussCottier]

Awesome!!!!

[@VeraTR909]

Nice project! could you maybe post a little bit of it affecting audio? even though it didn't work out as well as you expected it would still be interesting to know how it sounds.

[@markusfuller]

Hi Mirodin yes I will get back to it some time soon and show the audio noise it creates.

[@VeraTR909]

Great! thanks for replying.

[@greatmateworkshop9764]

Love it!

[@markusfuller]

Thank you very much

[@sysexstudio]

Bravo. Hope you'll do more of this creative stuff along with your normal routine. Curious if the audio signal issue is related to DC bias in some way? I'll try to do this project eventually none the less, but I'd definitely have to make a smaller version.

[@markusfuller]

Oh yes this is quite a big HP unit. I made some designs for the SMT version and may build that in a future video especially if I run out of HP space which will happen soon.

[@AnalogDude_]

Hey Markus, i went to your site to view the schematics, but i can only find "Gerber" kinda files.

[@eurobum2012]

Hey Markus. How are you UV exposing your boards?

[@anton6280]

Bravo!

[@markusfuller]

Thank you

What’s ur main occupation mark? You seem to try reinvent yourself time after time on these programs. Ever thought of joining a pop group?😎😎
