He tells a tale of buying defective transistors that were "noisy" and that those were the key to the 808 sound. Then in a sidebar, the schematic of the white and pink noise generator circuit is shown with Q35 circled. The doc closes with him claiming that they had to stop production when they weren't able to source these particular transistors anymore. Has anyone else seen this doc? I didn't think noise circuits were that picky about transistors but I haven't made any myself. I'm also pretty sure the BD circuit doesn't use it, which 90% of the doc focused on. Wondering what your takes are.
