Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
I'm trying to add a control to an LFO that'll allow me to adjust how much light from the LED will "bleed" into the low state of a square wave function (and eventually the triangle wave, if possible). For context, this is the circuit I'm using: complete-circuit-v7 copy.png And here's a visu...

Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
CONFIRMED they are, in fact, IR sensors. Thanks! Using these in an anti-parallel pair in lieu of a proper LDR yields some intriguing results indeed. The TV remote interference is an obvious plus, but I was kind of surprised at how similar the waveforms of a proper LDR vs. an IR sensor anti-parallel ...

Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
Talked to one of my [vastly more knowledgeable] coworkers and they basically came to the same conclusions you did: they even tested it with one of those mega328-type devices (though results were inconclusive). I’m leaning towards photodiode, but without a way to emit infrared to test it, I can’t rul...

Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
So here’s a head-scratcher: I have a bunch of LDRs that look like LEDs. No pic to post: they literally look like any other average, clear-colored 3mm LEDs, but you won’t get any light out of them. They effectively act like LDRs (photocells) and were described as such when I bought them at a surplus ...

Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
Thanks again! Your version on the right turned out to be the best one. To further clarify: this circuit was originally meant to drive a speaker instead of an output jack (I can post the schematic later, if I remember) hence why the output/secondary winding wasn’t grounded initially. I wasn’t sure if...

Welcome back! Good choice, too. Easily in my top 25 noise albums (technically a ‘best of’-like compilation but tomayto tomahto).PortiaPorcupineFan wrote: ↑Mon Dec 18, 2023 8:36 am Masonna "Noskl In Anna"
Been a few years or more since I rocked this. So, time to bust it out.

Re: Thread for random DIY-related questions
Got another quandary for you all: helpme.jpg Image should be fairly self-explanatory, but in short, I was wondering if I could get away with adding a volume pot to this circuit by routing the red lead of the transformer [8Ω output] to the center lug of the volume pot, with the clockwise lug going to...
