Different anon with no interest in the argument here.

"Kid" is only as fucking obnoxious as it is because of how it's used. It comes off as a pejorative the way you're using it, because when it's said like that it's almost always intended as a juvenile way to demean the person being addressed and assert dominance over them. It doesn't serve a descriptive purpose, it doesn't help identify who're you're talking to, it's not endearing, it's just being a douche.

Or maybe it's just a habit for you. But that's not how it comes across.

[Anonymous No.162418]

By the looks of it the op didn't make the box anyway, seems like it was probably something he had floating around and decided to put this stuff inside it.

Not sure why this fag is getting so butthurt over it. Maybe it is the OP actually and he's trying to get interest for his thread or something.

Obviously OP feelsgoodman.jpg about his box. Sure, it's not put together the best. He never ONCE said it was. He was just showing it. And you..you had to come in this thread and be the tumor on this dudes day.

ohh wow and you just called me pathetic? kid, there is no arguments here, only me stating facts (ho ops box is shitty) and you kids getting upset over it. more proof you are indeed a child.

>>162408
i can see what you mean, but a shitty box from hte start is a shitty box. it looks horrendus, the fact he couldnt even put the effort in to make a good quality box then make it look weathered, because at the moment it looks like an old shittly made box, instead of an old box.

>>162409
theres a difference between putting effort into somthing and not.

op obviously didnt put any effort into his box

if i was a teacher and this was some kids project, id give him a D. it would have been a F if it wasnt for the fact he has electronics inside it.

but seriously, just look at it. its pathetically shittly made.

pic related, its how dovetail joints should look. not like ops. you can see how badly his is made.

>>162419
i agree, its a good idea, just done raelly really poorly. if he spent the extra time making somthing that looks good, it would literally be a better box. amazing isnt it?

measure twice, cut once.
to all the kids getting upset at the truth:

get out of your bubble and accept that its a shittly made box that could have been so much better than it was if it was not for ops lazyness.

[Anonymous No.162429]

yeah I'm an instrument builder too. people are veryyyyy picky about how instruments look. Much more into how they look than how they sound. I recently got a book on instrument-building and it highlights this fact. It says something like, "if it looks good, it's a sign it will sound good." People assume that if you have that much control over the instrument design externals then you must have mastered the internals.

which I don't agree with at all. However, sometimes you have to yield to forces. (just like your momma's hymen yielded to my strap-on in the woods last Friday night)

Regarding the laser cutting. The laser cut was perfect. I mean the program had it perfectly square and the laser was fully successful in cutting it square. Unfortunately it was a few milimeters off and the pieces wouldnt fit. So I sanded them down a bit.

Now that doesnt explain why it looks the way it does. If you ever see laser cut boxes they are like... too perfect. The edges of each side usually stick out an extra 4 milimeters or so. I decided to just sand the hell out of everything so that it both fit together, and didnt have any sharp edges. I dont really care if it looks scraggly. But regarding the shaggyness, blame me, not the laser cutter.

brb, getting recording

I have already told you that I did not sugar coat it and I told you why it would be very unlikely for me of all people to have sugar coated it at all so I hardly think I was sugar coating it and you are obviously wrong.

I changed it from perfectly sqaure. Those laser cut boxes always have weird edges. If anything I think those weird edges look imperfect. They are just begging to be removed.

You seem to be repeating yourself now which is worrying and seeing as you seem to call a lot of people kid that may indicate you are an elderly person and considering these two facts I think you may be displaying symptoms associated Alzheimer's which is something you might want to get checked be a doctor for before it gets any worse.

I hope that you recover from this illness or at least can find some appropriate medication and maybe some live-in help to help with your day to day activities. If you had a nurse around the house she would be able to help you restrain yourself when you begin to repeat what you are saying over and over and over again. For example I think you will probably reply to this post and say the words acting, kid, retard and maybe sugar and if you had a nurse helping you she would remind you that you'd already said that and that would help your short-term memory forming abilities to return.

Alright Kids.

I got your video right here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xt6GeC-08t8

I am channeling through an amplifier. I think for a moment I use the in box speaker. The inbedded speaker sounds a bit more like a gameboy or an NES.

Also I cheated a bit for moments I was being aided by a sampler.

The loud slapping sounds are me hitting the keys. When I go fast I hit hard.

sound seems shitty, like your box design, kid

you can defiantly make it sound better with some more effort, something you should have done with your box, kid

[Anonymous No.162886]

Wait so what is it?

You push the buttons and it plays notes?
Does it have a speaker or do you plug it into the computer?

What do the knobs do? The 4 red buttons?

That's fucking awesome, how do I make one?

Also, it does look likes shit. But I kind of dig the aesthetic, looks like it went through a nuclear war. Something you'd find in Fort Thunder, or one of the human civilizations in Adventure Time. The metal knobs don't really fit though, and the red buttons would look better clear-red, imo, would better fit the nuclear war feel.

The tone it puts out sounds a lot like the recorder I had in elementary school. I'd say it sounds good. The composition was a bit, uh, experimental for my tastes though.

Can you post a schematic? I'm more interested in the guts than the box. Was it a kit or did you hack it together yourself?

You're playing with something you made. Fuckin' enjoy it, it's more than a lot of people can do. Billy the Kid(s), I'm sure you're good at whatever you do, but unless you're posting realistic proof of skillz, get bent. Just sayin'.

6 buttons, 5 tones. The top and bottom ones are octaves.

The two knobs are supposed to be an EQ (treble and bass) they currently arent functioning. Right now it outputs a raw square wave, but with a little bit of EQing you can take the edge off of it.

One of the red buttons turns on the inbedded speaerk
One of them turns on the output jack
One of them turns on the EQ
and One of them turns on a clean un EQ'd signal.

Fort Thunder is cool.

>>162887

Gamelan is a really old indonesian style of music. Here is a pretty cool video of some gamelan stuff:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldPMifPbngc

One of the scales they use is called Slendro, it has 5 tones in it. I am kind of a tonality junkie if that makes any sense. And mathematically mapping sounds is what I am into.

>And what'd your prof think?

He was pretty happy. I think he was just happy to see someone so interested they made something like that. I remember he asked me why I built it, like he was confused. I told him because I want to play at home. His face lit up when I said that. Makes me feel all good inside.

>>162888

>Can you post a schematic? I'm more interested in the guts than the box. Was it a kit or did you hack it together yourself?

Yeah sure I will throw something together for you. There is an arduino inside of it.

[Anonymous No.162902]

>>162898
Awesome dude, this is really cool. Have you made any other things like this?

Does it cost a lot for the parts and shit?
I really want to make my own now.

[The Real OP No.162922]

>>162888

Here is a schematic, sorry its not so clear, I just made it in paint.

Its pretty simple. Ill share my code too if you want to see it. Basically the ardiuno constantly reads analog 1. If the voltage is above a certain amount it plays a certain tone. The 5 volt range is divided into 7 sections for 6 tones, and one section that says if there is no voltage coming though, than dont play a tone.

>>162902

Yeah I have some other stuff. Ill dump a bit.

>Does it cost a lot for the parts and shit?

I paid $10 for the wood. A few bucks for switches. The rest of it was just scraps I had laying around, and of course an Arduino. The speaker was free. I ran out of wire about half way into it and ended up having to harvest a bunch of electronics for wire to get enough.

Great effort OP! ... you need to get some more oscillators in for your next one! ... I liked the 21/8 time sig on your youtube channel too... cool stuff!

Its funny when people argue the ''look'' of audio equipment when at the end of the day, its all coming out the speakers.

[The Real OP No.164714]

>>164553

Thank you.

Yeah I will certainly make more of these things. I think my next one will definitely have more oscillators. I am thinking I will make it polyphonic too. This one can only play one tone at a time.

Last night I was playing around with it and I broke 4 of the 6 buttons. I guess thats what I get for buying radioshack. I am going to buy some higher quality buttons and I will re-enforce the whole thing.

Also since the EQ portion didnt work I am thinking of what to replace it with, since right now I have pots and buttons that are currently functionless. I think I am going to build a Low pass filter and make the pots volume controls. The low pass filter will make the square waves more triangular and rounder, which will be a nice option to have. If I want I could later make a triangle to sin wave converter and get a resonably good sin wave out of it.
