the Hohner Bass Threemörk, pt. XII: expansion

or, at least, room for it. see below.

once i got the envelope filter working, it did indeed get modded a bit.
mostly boring stuff to get it to do its job a bit better, like a trimpot here and there. no biggie, smalls.
for the bigger changes: see below.

in the end i liked the darn thing so much i needed it to be close to my baby - preferably in the same box. so i figured i got some place left in the briefcase lid..
which has the side effect of opening up some space for future inhabitant effects.
if you knowaddamsayin.

need to tidy it all up a bit still, but you get the idea.
sound files to come. as always. mañana.


controls are, top to bottom:
recycled Hohner Bass 3 preset array for HP/BP/LP (yes, i though that would be not-quite-ha-ha-funny. my inner nerd needs to feed every once in a while.)
then up - down switch, hi - low freq switch, asymmetry switch which messes with the resonant frequency of the filtering, expanding on the hi/low choice.
then peak pot, sensitivity pot (rather than volume - she wasn't playing nicely with the hohner so volume is now a fixed resistor), and blend pot.
then 3-pos. slope speed switch for slower attack speeds, and touch points to instantly collapse the filter so you don't need to turn the sensitivity knob at breakneck speed. me lazy.

overconfident as i was (or distracted, i forget) i prematurely drilled an extra hole for CV input, but haven't gotten round to implementing that yet. i feel it oughta be possible though.
sequencer goes OneUp! on PileO'ToDo.

oh, and the lens screwed with the perfectly straight lines of the board, obviously.
