NE566N

I just scored another amazing deal off of Ruten last week. Twenty-nine NE566 for only 10 bucks. The 566 is a cool IC to have, you get a saw and a square wave right on it.

The book that made the 566 famous is Making Music with the 566 by Thomas Henry. You can get a PDF of it for $12 over at www.magsmoke.com.

Cheap Vectrols

I have been killing my self trying to find some cheap VTL5C3/2. This is a common part used in some very uncommon synths. There are so many interesting projects over at electro-music that use this part, but it cost's around 6-7 bucks a pop.

I have found a cheap source of VTL5c4/2 which is not relay a good substitution for the C3's but at $1.50 a pop definitely worth getting a few. I did a quick group buy over at electro-music because I am sure that people would want them, and now I have 30 left over.

I think I might make myself a lo pass gates, or in this case a slow-pass-gate. Check out the video to see what happens when you put a C4 into a LPG.
