Deviant Synth

A synth made of neon lamps, from Not Breathing.
Videos of the Blinky in action: 1, 2

Quote from the maker:

5 neons in a ring counter type set up with a pot and cap value change for each stage,
a multivibrator modulator w/ 2 neons – rate pot, shape pot – range switch, switch o/off to ring counter.
different one w/out shape pot or range switch – depth pot – switch to power it from b+ or the previous multivibrator and switch on/off to the ring counter.
a third single neon osc as modulator w/ just rate pot, switch from b+ or previous modulator, on/off to ring counter
subosc divider, i grabbed from your vco circuit i believe, w/ a range switch,
and a 12 stage passive low pass filter (the magic part)

A great British DIY circuit-bender. A few of his gadgets have been mentioned on Matrix before, but I just want to direct you to his YouTube page. He doesn’t seem to have a regular web page. Unlike most other circuit-benders, Paul takes great care to make his gadgets look good, as well as sound interesting.

From the YouTube video:
“6 oscs(cmos), 4 ring mods(cmos), passive vca(diodes), passive vcf(vactrol), decay generator, additional passive low pass filter (via rotary), 2 watt amp – some knobs n crap – a lunetta? the vca modulation is skankulation – i have a lil fet s&h between the 6th osc and the vca – no buffer not so good”
