Harmony Generator vintage kit

From the MAKE Flickr pool

Matt the modulator picked this rather sweet 80′s Maplin Harmony Generator kit on ebay. Though nonfunctional after the initial assembly, a bit of rewiring got things up and running for the above-seen demo processing a Gameboy/LSDJ sequence. He was also kind enough to post the relevant schematics/article for those interested.

    That’s pretty cool. I wonder what it’d sound like with a guitar (electric/acoustic) wired up to it.

    I wonder how long until someone writesa a PIC or Atmel code equivalent for this…

Don't get me wrong, they're cheap and often get the job done, but they were made to not drive well. They were designed specifically in the early 20th century to cam out when too much force was applied. Now that we have torque-limiting drills this isn't a problem anymore, yet somehow we still use them.

We use the phrase "two by four" in common parlance, but did you know it's actually 3.5 inches wide? Don't make assumptions on size; always measure first.
