Atari Punk Console AKA Forrest Mims’ Stepped Tone Generator.
I built this atari punk console into a little blue plastic box I found by the side of the road, left on a damp table of junk left over from a rained out yard sale. Can anyone tell me what it is? I want more.
It fits nicely in the palm of your hand, with your thumb on the trigger. The lower knob is pitch, the upper controls the “steps” or “range”. I added a 1/4 inch line out.
I put a little speaker on the top so you can play it “on the go”, and the ultra bright LED pulsates in time, setting the whole box off.
This video has three sections: first the raw box, then with reverse delay, and lastly with the boomerang as a looping pedal.
