This guy took an ancient (1980 or so) paper-tape reader from a Heathkit computer and rewired it so it would control a simple oscillator bank made with 555 timer chips. Then he made punched tapes for it, by writing a QBASIC program. I’m afraid to ask how long it took him.

What To Post Here
If it relates to electronic music somehow, and is "abnormal", "wrong", "weird", or causes forum trolls to complain, please post it to Deviant Synth. Photos of vintage keyboards are not welcome -- unless they're STRANGE keyboards. Links to ebay auctions of vintage gear are not welcome -- unless it's a piece of freaky warped weirdness. All tech must be ODD. Germanium transistors, arcane synth modules, vacuum tubes, steam-powered piston oscillators, non-piano-ish controllers, whatever -- it has to be WRONG. (You need a Wordpress account to post. We made it as easy as possible to register -- you just need a valid email address to receive the login info. Please limit the size and quantity of photos you post. Please host sound files elsewhere. Thankyou.)-
