[sdiy] noise maker ...top octave IC

[Peter Snow]

Derek,

The PAiA Oz is a fairly simple "chord organ" designed to be used with their
Gnome synthesizer.
It has a pitch bend feature using hand capacitance.  I never built it because it
required a keyboard with dual contacts.
Worth investigating if you are really determined to use the TOD.
Schematics may be on line at the PAiA site or perhaps at Anders Sponton's site
http://omega.tellus.vallentuna.se/anders/ - haven't checked recently. Good luck.

Cheers,

Peter
