Moog Circuit Bending Challenge 2017

- This is my entry to the "Moog Circuit Bending Challenge 2017." In this video I will show the steps I took to circuit bend, hack and modify my Casio casiotone MT-100 into something new altogether.
I call my modified version the AccompuTone.
The AccompuTone includes an added Arpeggio with volume and four modes, mute switches for Chord, Bass and all individual Drum sounds, with a drum patch bay that give the ability to trigger any drum sound from any drum trigger. I also added two different Envelope modes, reverb switch, pitch bend, LP filter and digital delay with two types of feedback control.

This would get a place in my studio in no time, so many possible uses for this thing!
SolidSixx thank you. That is awesome to hear.
Nice clean bend work, good stuff brother.
Thank you.
This video changed my life. Watched it 5 times already and I think I will watch it 10 more. Nice job.
Thank you. That is really nice to hear. Feel free to ask any question you might have.
Yes I ordered the cut off and res filter and delay, still waiting for some parts but I will be in touch. I'm doing a MT-65 trying emulate Mt-400v.
Jason Piekacz awesome. You should make a video of your build process. I actually have a MT-400v too but I don't think I'll be modifying that one. It's pretty cool as it is.
I'm thinking about the build video idea, good suggestion. I have a MT-400 too but If you use wah and chorus LFO and then input into some serious delay the sound turns to liquid. Therefore It must be Bent.
Hey, Mike I have a question. I want to add a ring modulator but it uses 4 diodes and needs a signal amp. Does either the delay or cut off have any significant amplification potential for this application?
uf is microfarad and pf is
picofarad.
Great video, i might have to try this.
izzzzzz6 Thanks! Yeah I always seem to mix up my capacitor values. Oh well 😜
That's really great. Awesome project. You included everything I would if I could do this. The only thing I might have added which might improve it is some kind of simple fuzz or overdrive circuit. There are some very simple circuits that can do that and distortion really helps to thicken up the sound of a Casio type keyboard.
Paul TheSkeptic thank you. Great suggestion about some type of distortion circuit. But there is only so much you can squeeze out of the $70 budget limit. Maybe next year I'll work one in.
That's true.
I came for the circuit bending,and got treated to some cool Evil Dead - like build montages.
Really clever. Neat layouts and skillful implementation.
I heard "Last Jungle" playing in the background sped up there. Good taste in music.
Good ear!
Man this is very special. Nice job on everything!
Thank you
Extron writing pad and spare DVI cables, sounds too familiar! You must work in the A/V integration world too! Nice build!
Bent Sound good eye. You guessed right. I'm a field service technician for A/V integration company.
LOL same! Best job I've ever had.
Craftmanship all around! Very, very nice to see the whole process and especially the way, you present all this. It's a gift, I guess and a blessing all together, to rationalize all you brought and bring into practice. Good to see/good luck with future projects.
RICHart V. Thank you very much.
You sir have some mad skills and imagination . Sublime !!!!
Adamski A. Thank you! This has quickly become my favorite/best bend that I've done. If only the Moog judges felt the same. Haha. Oh well. Guess I'll just try again this year.
Great design. Weird..I just saw this... I was checking for old comments from me.

I am tempted to make a start on Circuit Bending for the first time, advice on where to start?
This is when having ADHD and OPCD come in handy.
great work, bro. nice and clean and useful stuff.
Do you replace the line out jack on these cheap casios? Everytime I've tried to use one they sound terrible. Even after being cleaned.
Yes. For this one the audio out of the keyboard feeds into a Low Pass Filter and then to a PT2399 Delay and then to the 1/4” output jack.
Hey Mike! Really impressive work with this one. I'm not even a novice when it comes to electronics, but I was wondering if you'd be able to modify it to trigger the drums with an external source and cv-input? Also is it possible to add individual outputs for each drum sound?
Regards
Thanks so much. Yeah I think each drum sound could modified to be triggered from an external source. I did that to a Yamaha DD-5. I’m not too sure about individual drum outputs though, I would think no.
awesomesauce!
It looks awesome!
Amazing !!! I want to add the filter and the delay to my casio mt45 , from where the 9v power come from?
No worries. Peace christo
Awesome work, really neat and tidy.
Do you think the points you connect the switches to mute individual drum sounds (and the bass and chord sounds) would be good places to connect an output jack each for single outs? I was thinking to use TRS so plugging a cable into a single out would cut that sound from the summed output...when I figure out the right places to hack in for each sound.
No, I don’t think so. I think it is just the tigger signal since coming from main IC.
@@SISKworks Ah, I thought that was just the swaps and the mutes were switching audio.
Oh well, back to the drawing board (and the audio probing).
Thanks for the inspiration.
@@SISKworks If I might trouble you with another question. Do you think the envelope circuit you have to add for the arpeggiator could be altered to make the note length adjustable, perhaps by swapping that 100k resistor out for a pot?
@@dmthandmade5674 Sorry but I really don’t know. But that would definitely be something good to try.
Thanks for the heads up! Peace christo
Awesome job!
Great stuff 30:00 amazing sounds
Thanks! This is so informative
Thank you.
Really nice job mate
Thank you!
nice work man, looks and sounds pretty "normal" for a circuit bend machine.
Thank you. Since most of my mods are actually "easter eggs" features that were intended for other casio models it made my keyboard sound very factory. It is also VERY stable and never locks up because of that.
nice one!!good luck with the challenge!! :)
Thanks. you too.
At the beginning it sounds like a sound from a movie
What bread boards did you use to make your own circuit?
Modular Mountain I think they are just called perforated prototype boards.
Mike Sisk thank you. I’m trying to get all the diodes, capacitors, and resistors for the boards you used.
Modular Mountain are you doing the same keyboard? I would love to see it when you finish.
Mike Sisk yes I am doing the same one. Sure I’ll keep you updated. I’m doing a few bends right now. Working on a DD5, a PSS-270, and an SA-20. I just got finished with a MT-260 that turned out pretty well for my first bend.
Mike Sisk yours turned out amazing BTW. Did you win?
I love it
Mike can you do one of these for me?if so how much? Peace christo
Hmmm, I'm not sure. Do you already own a MT-100 and want it modified or are you asking to buy this one that I already built?
I do not own one. Peace christo
This model is somewhat hard to find so you would have to supply the keyboard for me to modify. I am not really interested in selling mine just yet (unless a crazy offer was made). So I would say first hunt down a MT-100 and then send me a message and maybe we can work something out.
christo you can get one for about $50 on ebay.... not in good condition though
Did you win?
Westside 909 No. I didn’t even make it to the finals that year. But I can’t complain as I am a finalist once again this year (2019).
Go crazy next time, build it into a top hat and have a channel of water you poke your finger in to change pitch.
haha. That is in a strange way a good idea. I think my problem with this challenge is that I can't think outside the box enough. I can circuit bent just fine but I have a hard time creating something totally unique. Now to find a top hat a guess?
Mike Sisk that is why you should collaborate with someone who has really original ideas but isn’t very good at circuit bending. I could probably direct you to the right people if you wanted to entertain this idea. A buddy of mine just created a program that lets us stream a live performance and sends midi to watchers so they can play along with us.
How dare you!! LOL fuck yes

Looks really good, you clearly know your stuff, so why did you say "u"F was pico farad?!!?!
Tim Mottram did I say that? I think "uF" is actually microfarads.
noice
I will get one that you'll don't have to plug it into the computer
Casio
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
I wish my dad could make a synthesizer keyboard for me 💖😇🌈🎹🎛
