    I love how you DIY your panels in larger sizes with big knobs, so you can easily see what you are grabbing and get into it.
    Eurorack has it's place, compact, portable, you can fit a lot of modules in, but I prefer the larger size panels with clearly legible labels, and knobs that are not to close to each other.

    "You could build these really easily, and you could make stupid noises. What more could you want?" That's exactly what I was thinking, I'm sold

    Having just watched Hainbach’s wee video about another Benjolin, I had to check out this older one of yours! I love how both of you use it in ways which are so identifiable as your respective styles!

    These sound so flippin' cool! I never really pay too much attention to euro stuff but now I really want to DIY an MU version. That bubbly sound at 3:46 sounds crazy! I'm starting to really like the idea of controllable probability randomness. I don't know why I'm so excited right now... Definitely looking into this. could be fun as a portable battery powered stand alone box.

    • @LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER

      i think it was originally a battery powered design, from what i know it was designed for being built in workshops. this was the original. called the blippoo box hordijk-synths.info/synth/2015/03/25/blippoo.html the benjolin is basically that, no idea the history of why the benjolin is called the benjolin or whatever. someone! please elaborate.

      Just picked up a pcb. These pcbs same difficult to get apart from group buys for some reason. I seem to have gotten the second last one! On a side note, how does the whole synth tv thing going on work? I got a old green monochrome monitor similar to that with an rca video input kicking around that I'd like to put to use.

    Epic sound track, for the build sequince. I was watching a Matthias video earlier, the sounds one of their anger management items made, sounded like the sounds, coming from this, benjolin. The lights on the thing Matthias was punching, in his video reminded me, of the oscillating mega drone, in one of the videos, on this channel. I wonder, what would happen, if some built a beat generator, with big enough buttons, to be played, by physically hitting them with drum sticks or boxing gloves?

    So how different is this from the blippoo box? Unless i'm mistaken it appears like same unknowingly created the blippoo box unless its far older than I'm thinking.

    • @LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER
      @LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER  6 років тому +1

      pigo & pogo malescy hello! I got it on a pcb run at pusherman. However I think the pcb files are available! Find them. Upload them to jlc pcb I recon they would only cost 10 pounds to make a couple of pcb’s it’s a lot cheaper than you think!

    is this thing clockable from external source?

    • @LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER
      @LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER  7 років тому +1

      yep. i just plonked it together, but it would just be a case of making a cut between the osc 2 and the rungler circuit and then popping a switch and jack or a switched jack there!

    • @saederkrupp
      @saederkrupp 7 років тому

      so this would mean that you can loop it to a 16th pulse clock?

    HEY BRO..what you are doing is awesome..creativity is the savior of our future.I started a band called POSSUM DIXON - well known in the 90' s..( drummer )..on UA-cam I have a band called The Phosphenes - many walkers calling themselves The Phosphenes..but I own Thephosohenes.com.. Only listen too The Phosphenes - Bryan Kovacs - or brills111.. or Micro cryptic music..which my extremely experimental music..I think you would appreciate it..its way out there..but its titled in The Phosphenes..too drowned the bastards using illegally my Phosphenes band name..The Phosphenes is heavy rock project..anyway, I REALLY THINK WHAT YOUR DOING IS THE COOLEST..JUST AWESOME..I ALSO AM A INVENTOR ..I WOULD LOVE TO PRODUCE SOME MUSIC WITH YOU IN THE FUTURE.. MUCH RESPECT.. I WOULD GET A WEBSITE AND START PUTTING YOUR WORK THERE..UA-cam'S FUTURE IS NOT GOING TO BE GOOD..ITS MY PREDICTION THAT THE PERSONAL WEB SITE IS GOING TO MAKE A GIANT COME BACK..ANYWAY.. THANK YOU
