    This is also a good way to show how and why a VCA and ADSR can be very useful. Doing it by hand like this is cool, but adding other filters and things you sort of need VCAs and AR envelopes when more is involved. Takes a lot of skill to do get this to make music to begin with though.

    In the late 70's aged around 12 i was given a huge box of electronic components, a soldering iron and a book of simple electronic circuits ( babani press) which had some sound generator circuit's. I'd spend days sodding around changing as many components as i could & get fairly similar sounds as this 🎵.
