Amazing work! I habe spent a fair amount of time building and modding Walkmans and integrsting6them with Eurorack,but this is next level. Any chance of a crude explainer/walkthrough video about how you set it up and the principle of operation?
So awesome! I made a similar thing on my channel but this is so much nicer. I really need to figure out the electronic erase head. I'm guessing you had to build some kind of bias oscillator? I would love to learn how that part was done. I also love the idea of the open face cassette. I've been cutting them with a hacksaw but I might try that next.
Thank you! Yes, getting the bias to work was the trickiest part - the circuit that finally worked for me was the bias circuit in a book called Audio Electronics by J. Linsley Hood. You can use AC erase with that bias circuit which is ideal, or you can electrically DC erase with a DC erase head (they have a higher DC resistance ~200-400 ohms) or by putting a 220 ohm resistor in series with an AC erase head (those typically are 4-6 ohm) and supplying it with power will also erase the tape fine. Hope that helps!
Not sure I understood correctly, but anything here that sounds 'lofi' is the actual sound of the tape and therefore the sound of the delay - does that make sense? All the original sound sources are pretty pure hi-fi sounds.
aah, I really like such stuff - personally I do more synthwave music, but experimental soundscapes really inspire me.
Beautiful. I'd love to buy or build one of these.
Thanks! Going to try to get some build information together soon
Very good
Such a beautiful machine! Miss you and wish you the best for ever
sounds awesome
it's lovely! inspiring work
This is amazing. I want one!
a you placed another head outside the first! brilliant! :)
Loving this.
That's really rather good 🎃
thanks!

Hello - thank you! Been meaning to put something together for a while but have not gotten around to it just yet -

@@PassepartoutDuo awesome. I will look that up. Thank you.
Are there plans?
A writeup coming soon as a first step! :)
Wonderful⭐
incredible
Can i purchase one of these? Please let me know. Thanks!
Unfortunately, we just have this one - so it's not for sale :)
@PassepartoutDuo thank you
👍
why do you have such beautiful hands, directly made for the piano and I don't?

A lot of the low quality "lofi" sounds you're using are so inaudible I can't really tell how good the delay is.
