Trying to FIX: 1970s Dubreq Stylophone

[@GadgetUK164]

Fascinating to see that old Stylophone! The perfect gift to annoy people nearby!

[@Mymatevince]

Especially your neighbours when hooked up to the Amplifier Output :-)

[@beavis6363]

I noticed your keyboard was no longer one scale in tune with the deviated resistor. The first four notes where in one key, then jumped to a slightly different key for the rest of the scale. I waited to listen with resistor restored and sure enough the entire key board was one smooth scale. So your alteration did change things, just not what was expected. Cool gadget. edit: just reached the end of the video, yep it all makes sense. Neat. I bet the key jump was exactly where you changed resistance.

[@Mymatevince]

Interesting. I find it very hard to notice differences unless they are quite extreme changes. I wouldn't have noticed that at all. Thanks for letting me know :-)

[@Byront83]

Great video Vince. Great to see you doing older electronics again. I much prefer these type of videos and old toys rather than modern electronics!

[@nigelbarrett4936]

In school our music teacher had a classroom sized batch of these, used as a low cost option to teach the basics. We'd all have to check the pitch was correct first, and then at some point in the lesson we'd all be trying to play the same tune in sync! Great fun once, very annoying after a while :-). Commonest problem was a flat battery, quite a few had that split in the cable. I found a schematic on the web, it's very simple - just a single transistor oscillator fed by that stack of series resistors and a single transistor amp. I'd keep the power switch off while changing the battery, it looks like the amp would be damaged if you accidentally reversed the connections.

[@KorAllRBare]

Good advice Nigel, and I would go one better and insert a protection diode to one of the battery leads..

[@Mymatevince]

Thanks Nigel :-)

[@countzero1136]

Hey Vince that's a genuine collector's item - that particular Stylophone is a first generation model that was only produced in 1968, so a bit older than the 1970's listing description. You can easily spot a first gen model by the black squares on the keyboard - these were not on later models. Also, when you take the back off, the tuning resistor bank is made up of individual discrete resistors, whereas the gen 2 models onwards used a pair of monolithic resistor modules instead (though some very early Gen 2's did also have discrete resistors). The later Gen 3 versions used a classic 555 timer IC as the tone generator rather than the unijunction transistor (now unobtanium), making them easier to repair since the 555 is still easily available. Gen 3 models also included a volume control for the first time, which was a huge improvement as the earlier models tend to be loud and obnoxious :) A common mod for earlier models was to add a switch on the side of the case that put a resistor inline with the speaker to reduce the volume a bit - not an ideal solution and not hugely effective but it was a very popular mod back in the day, but it's really nice to see that your Gen 1 doesn't have this, so it is in perfectly original condition which is very cool as so many of them have the speaker mod which does kind of reduce their appeal to collectors. I don't want to say that your Gen 1 Stylophone is particularly rare, but it is nowhere near as common as the all-white (probably turned yellow by now) Gen 2 Treble model - in Gen 2 there were three models - the Standard model which had a black case like your Gen 1, the white Treble model, which was pitched one octave higher than the standard one, and the Bass model, pitched an octave below the standard one. The Bass model had a light brown case (similar to the lower octave on some electric organs of the period) and is VERY hard to find these days - I don't think it was particularly popular when it was released and most of the Stylophones on the second hard market today are the white Gen 2 Treble version. I had a white Gen 2 Treble Stylophone back in the late 70s

[@RetroMods]

Top bloke, I've just found the instructions along with a 1970 star trek sweet cigarette box in the same place. I think the sweet box is worth a lot more than my stylophone 😄👍

[@dnwheeler]

The resistors are all in series and the keys connect between resistors. Each note adds an additional resistor, so adding one more in the middle just shifts all the later notes up a bit.

[@dnwheeler]

Ha! I should have watched until the end before commenting.

the resistor you soldered DID something. it changed the key "F" and all following keys. listen again, you can hear it in the video ;) maybe check with a digital guitar tuner if you dont hear it

[@Squonk06]

I came down into the comments hoping somebody would have noticed. Indeed, it pushed the F up around a semitone to sound as something close to F-sharp.

A little cool trivia for you. The metal grill on the front was used on the ANH Darth Vader’s belt boxes.

[@AmjadAli-ui2pp]

And

[@rfmerrill]

You're right that the resistors are what determine the pitch, but rather than each key going through one individual resistor, it goes through the whole stack of them down to one end, so when you change one resistor you change all of the keys to one side of it.

[@aardvarkmaximus7688]

If you learn what the resistor colour codes mean, then when you test them with a multimeter you can see if the actual value is the same as the intended one. This will help reduce guesswork.

[@technixbul]

All the resistors are in series and have outputs from different points to keys, imagine this as potentiometer and stylus is the wiper of it so when you change one resistor you change total resistance of it (all keys are misaligned and shifted on octave) and the stylus is in parallel on them. If the stylus was in series with resistors it would make a difference. You can desolder one resistor of each end and solder two ends of potentiometer there and its wiper to stylus and it will work as smoothly adjustable tone generator ;)

@27:32 this really rings a bell with me, as had a stylophone as a kid. and the ink smudges says that it is a left handed person which I am. 1979 would have been too early for me though, as I was 3 back then. but might have had it 2nd hand about early to mid 80's off the back of a lorry as my grandfather always used to say!! when it was actually off his company partners kids as they grew up. and I know my parents are having a bit of a de-clutter, so might have gone to a charity shop and then been sold on, I wouldn't know without talking to my parents, but be interesting to find out, not that I played with it that much if it was mine, due to the annoying sound that it made.

[@michaelthomas3646]

The hairline crack goes all the way up the pins on the switch, it is a prehistoric crack and lasted 30 something years like it, so surprised to see this again after so long. My mother recognizes the pictures and everything as shown parents today. As for the stylus my father thinks he replaced the wire, but I always remember it being like that

[@michaelthomas3646]

What you could do is desolder the stylus from the main board, undo the knot and slip some heat shink down to the break in the wire, and then glue both ends of the heat shrink to make it water tight.

[@michaelthomas3646]

as for the damage to the wire, from what I remember was me, and my brother had a toy box sort of 3 foot by 3 foot square, and all our toys used to be kept in it, and the stylus would keep falling down under our cars, and a dycast artic-lorry with mud flaps and the stylus wire would always get trapped in the mud guart of the trailer, as the stylophone was never kept in it's box, as my father taken the box off us when he seen what I had been doing to the box. surprised it actually left my parents house actually, as my father was a television engineer so things like this was never passed on to my cousins after we outgrown things like this. the only thing my father can think of is when they hired a skip was it was put in the skip about 10 years ago, or recently, but doesn't remember getting rid of it recently. but I know for definate that I had it back in 87/88 after we moved to where they live now. so it must have lived in the attic for 20-30 years.

[@kriswillems5661]

All the resistors are in series. You just tap into one of the resistors in the series of resistors. By tapping into the next resistor in the series of resistors, you just increase the total resistance in the oscillator circuit. So, by increasing one resistor on your pcb all the tones after that one resistor shift. So, you keep the same direction. Ah, I saw that you found it at the end of the video.

[@KorAllRBare]

I mentioned placing a protection diode in between one of the a battery leads and the PCB Err-"somewhere else in response to someone else's Comment" I remember having a similar one of these, but the one I had was even smaller, it had Gold plated keys as well a the Probe or Tip was also gold plated which had worn away causing all sorts of grief..

Hey Vince, for the break, you could just desolder the wire from the board, feed some shrink tubing down and heat that over the break, since the stylus can't be opened.

[@Mymatevince]

Good idea. Thank you :-)

[@RetroSteveUK]

Vince, you may not have noticed, but where you added a resistor, a note in the musical scale was missed out. It appears that every note to the right of your resistor was pitched-shifted up by exactly one semitone. After you removed the resistor, the musical scale was restored and the missing note was back to its usual place. As a musician, I noticed the missing note immediately.

[@tim9778]

Hi Vince. Scotchbrite would have been good for cleaning the metal pip on the end of the stylus with little chance of scratching the plastic. It’s excellent for jack plugs too.

[@James101]

That would make a great doorbell for your brother if his breaks again. Lol.

[@CharlesBunny]

I mum has 2 of these. I took one and restored it. Pity, the pen separated from the wire so soldering it back on is kind of ugly. Works though.

[@countzero1136]

The reason that the keyboard resistors are all different values and seemingly random is because the relationship between the keyboard voltage and the oscillator frequency is not linear. In our western musical scale, the pitch of each note rises exponentially as you move up the keyboard, requiring various technical solutions to getting the scale in tune. The simplest approach, as used in the Stylophone, is to use a resistor chain where each resistor is a different value, carefully chosen to make the oscillator run at the correct frequency. The big innovation in electronic music was when Robert Moog developed the 1 volt per octave relationship which massively simplified the design of monophonic keyboards by allowing all the resistors to have the same value - the downside of this is that the oscillator has to be much more complicatedm, relegating it only to professional instruments of the era. The simplest method for DIY hobbyists like myself, was to use a preset potentiometer for each key then they could be tuned individually (starting at the highest note and working downwards). One negative of this approach was that if one key drifted out of tune, all the keys below it would also be out of tune, since the keyboard is essentially a series voltage divider. Ahh, the good old days before digital oscillators and MIDI :)

I think the circuit accumulates the resistors and adding one to the chain just changed the pitch from thereon. So the "tuning" pot is at the end and therefore changes all keys.
