WSG weird sound Generator
Asssembled by Elettrorama

 

A funny low cost noise box / drone project originally designed by Musicfromouterspace.com.

this review is based on a commercial model designed and sold by Italian Elettrorama company.

 

DIY NOISE MACHINE layout depends on what you want to build: plastic box, tin can, wood case or other recycled stuff... it is up to you! This precise model is made out in a cheap plastic case.

Terminal connectors:
- main signal out
- 2 cv inputs
- 1 gate input.

Power supply is a 9V external PSU DC.

 

 

VOICE the WSG is mainly based on a IC 40106 hex schmitt trigger jsut like previous CACOPHONATOR we saw last time) plus a 741 Op-Amp - WSG generates a weird sound that can be altered using 3 main parameters: Wacky, Zany and Weird- I did not get exactly what they do! Here's the original description:
- 2x "Wacky" oscillators (sound sources and Weird oscillator gates)
- 2x "Zany" oscillators (modulation sources for Weird oscillator)
- 2x "Weird" oscillators (sound sources).
Also a low passfilter with cutoff and a "oddness" Resonance.

 

ELETTRORAMA PROJECT ok this time I have been lazy and bought an already built-up version.
Too pricey for such a cheap finish... sounds ok however.
Check out the pic when I opened the machine and judget by yourself:
