shot the first chunk of this vid last. notice the grim burn i got right next to my eye from where i tried hot gluing something upside down...... sheesh that was a close call! if that went in my eye it would have been long john samver
I was already thinking how awesome this video was then you brought out that 1930s radio from an aircraft and omfg that made for some great sounds! Thanks for the great video and inspiration!
As I travel through your entire video list, I can feel myself ever so slowly getting closer to picking up a soldering iron and building something like this. I DON'T NEED ANY MORE HOBBIES!!! LOL
I'm not at all a musician and I can't even put together a 3-pin plug but am a fan of 70's electronic music, at a time when musicians literally had to spot weld their own equipment/instruments and I am utterly fascinated by your videos.
Your channel is great! I like that I feel I know more about how to create the music after watching you, not just hearing the sounds appear. Your tours of your rig leave me feeling better, not depressed. Like I'll never figure this out. Keep it up dude!
There’s a fine line between insanity and genius. But if you go there you’ll find LMNC running down it with his pants on his head. Always entertaining mate :)
Amazing stuff, I was trying a Valve distorstion pedal on my synths these days and you appesr with this. AWESOME DUDE. In my short experience, for distorition to kick in on a synth wave (triangle, sine, any basically) you need to push the resonance high and set cutoff mid to low, and find the sweet spot of gnarl by raising slowly the freq cut (303 basic old stuff) I do this with a microbrute and lots of fuzz or distortion pedals and works wonderfully
That sounds awesome, that radio rules. You could get an FM transmitter and use it as a wireless patch cable :D I love the sound of valves. Funny (not so much for me, but anywhom) how I'm like fixing to build a 9v noob modular with (almost just) a square wave and a distortion (because I simply LOVE square waves and I had a distortion pedal that I used on a old organ that was in a flat I used to live in) :/ Lucky me I've been scrapping for parts to make some of the simplest oscilators you showed us, so maybe it'll not be for nothing aftersall. I think this VCA will be like the first 12v thing I'll do, for when I start realizing that 9v isn't respecting my artistic integrity or something, because I just love the sound of filters and valves. Cheers
Hi Sam, great video. I had a look at the schematic and what struck me is that the bypass switch shorts the output of U2. Looking at the specs of the TL071 it appears to have a short circuit protection system build in, so because of that you won't blow out the opamp. I have one suggestion though. You might change the bypass switch into a double on. When in bypass mode, you could disconnect the tube's heating. Especially if you modular has a lot of tubes and they are not in use all the time, this may conserve quite a bit of power. It would take away the nice glow of the tubes though.
I'll definitely have to try building one of these, I'm working on building a DIY Modular Synth from some leftover circuit boards from a defunct Yamaha CS15D Synth.
I’m loving the rabbit hole of gorilla synths I found with you. However, if I could make a suggestion, as both a seasoned guitarist and synth tweaker, you should consider placing the tubes inward. They break easy. It’d be true horror show if a misplaced knob tweak snagged against one and it busted. Also, best not to touch them if it can be avoided. As the snobs say, it decays lifespan. Keep it up dude, you rock.
Bit lat to the party but suggest an ultra bright red LED running off the CV maybe located in the centre of the valve socket so the valve pulses with the cv or whatever.
I'm in the process of building a power supply for my new solderless breadboad I bought from my local Jaycar Electronics store recently, the power supply will be able to supply up to +/- 15V DC at up to 1.3A, both the + and - V are independently variable, once I know it is working like it is supposed to, I will be using it to test my Safety Valve Tube VCA module build and verify if it works, I will also be using the power supply and solderless breadboard to check that all the other modules I'm building for my big modular synth, work as they're supposed to, if not, I'll be able to mod the circuits to get them working right.
Okay, so I managed to finish building my new solderless breadboard power supply last night, worked perfect first time I switched it on, no loud bangs, smoke, or other abnormal behaviour, anyway, I used it to test-out my Safety Valve Tube VCA build, but my build didn't work as I expected it to, so I'll need to do some debugging, one thing I did notice is that the 12AX7 tube I was using seemed like it wasn't getting enough heater voltage, in the schematic, the current limiting resistor for the Tube Heater, R5, is a 27 Ohm resistor, after doing some experimentation with other resistor values, I have found that R5 needs to be at least a 14 Ohm/5W resistor (15 Ohms/5W should work fine) in order to get about 12.6V on pins 4 and 5 of the 12AX7 Tube (it needs 12.6V at 150mA to heat the two cathodes to the correct operating temperature), if you're powering the module off a +/- 15V supply, one other mod to the Safety Valve Tube VCA that I could recommend doing is to put a 47nF (473, or .047) capacitor (it's an arbitrary value I chose that seems to work well enough, you could even increase it to let more bass through) in between pin 6 of the 12AX7 Tube and R7 (the 150k resistor going from pin 3 of U2 (TLO71) to ground, doing this gets the TLO71 IC (U2) biased properly so that pin 6 of the TLO71 IC (U2) is sitting at 0V like it should be, rather than +11V, since U2 seems to be being used as an amplifier to bring the output signal on pin 6 of the 12AX7 Tube, according to the schematic, we want it to amplify without distortion, so that we get distortion from the Tube rather than the IC, so, the TLO71 IC needs to be properly biased so that pin 6 sits at 0V, one other thing I noticed with my Tube VCA build is that when in Bypassed mode, I don't seem to get any output-signal, so I'm going to re-wire the bypass switch so that it works properly, one more thing I noticed with my build is that it will self-oscillate at some point when you turn-up the level control, I'm going to see what I can do to fix that, one more thing, the Overkill switch doesn't seem to work as expected, when switched on, there is no output signal so one more thing for me to fix, this is not necessarily a bad thing, this is what actually makes DIY electronics a fun hobby, tweaking things to get a circuit working better.
im struggling a lot to diy an usable vca... so this make me a little envy. :) just joking... sound is getting better and better there. yessir! i like that distortion a lot, a real ear candy if u ask me.
That tube at 0:56 there does it work because it's definitly broken and i'll tell you how i can see that the top suposed to be shiny like a mirror your's is white. meens air got in and oxidized the coating. just a friendly heads up! :)
Can the 12AT7 be used in place of the 12AX7 using the same pins? also will this work fine with 9 volts or does it require 12? Edit: do i need a 47nf cap or can i approximate to 40? I dont think i have a 47nf
It's the new 874JB99-NVX70001 Valvetronic Manipulator Mechanism Device. Or the 874JB99-NVX70001 VMMD for short. (I know the full title can be a little long winded.)
Do you use the same type of speakers for both playing/performing and also producing? Or do you have different types of speakers for different purposes? Or do you use headphones? Do a video on speakers plz!!
@6:25 What do you have going into that droning synth sound besides the Safety VCA? Also, do you have a make and model on that 40's (It's from WWII) style aircraft radio?
Dat distortions, tones and combinations. Hearing this by any mean, knowing shit 'bout who made it, I'd immediately tell it's LMNC. It's you having your `sound`, or handwriting, if you will, I can recognize it in every track of yours. Or when you're having shits and giggles with new module you invented like a day ago :D See you soon again in Amsterdam, mate! Woo! Thanks

Hey Sam love your videos, I get kick and an education out of them! I’m more of a guitar player currently but looking to expand into this realm, I only have a Volca Keys synth and the plug ins from Studio One, do you have any recommendations on what kind of module synths/gear is a good starting place like DIY kits, also any references for learning more about circuitry online? I’d appreciate any guidance you can offer, thanks Sam and keep doing what you do!!
Very nice project you share! Got me interested in doing some DIY myself :-) Quick question about the potentiometers, can I use 0,4 watt ones instead of the 0.5 watt you've linked to? Would it affect the sound, performance or will it give problems? Thanks!

the drawing on this video and the one on the website page are different. the level pots connection are different, could you check and tell us which one is right?
i tried a lot of different transistors. the bc107 bleeds more which works out better for this. its a bit shitter at its job. :D. but yeah you can..... i initially tried bc547/57 but went to bc107 after
I'm in the process of building a modular synth too, but the wooden cabinets for housing the modules are going to be very similar to the Moog System 55, I've opted to make the modules 8.75 inches tall and multiples of 1U wide (2 inches = 1U), they will also include 90 degree bends on either side, some of the modules will use ICs and circuits from my old Yamaha CS15D synth, and some will use circuits from the Music From Outer Space website, not sure if you've visited that website, if not I definitely recommend you check it out cause it's a really good Synth DIY resource.
There's even going to be a DSP FX module that's based on a DSP FX circuit board I salvaged from a defunct Yamaha mixing desk, I'm debating in my head whether I should include some voltage-control circuitry in it, the DSP FX circuit board has 16 different FX presets ranging from reverbs to choruses, flanging, delays, phasing, and even a distortion preset.
