Circuit Bent Talking Teacher Drone Experimental Synth

via this auction

"This is a circuit bent Coleco Talking Teacher, very similar to the texas instruments SPeak and Spell only deeper and more analog

sounding. This thing will do some fantastic 8 bit droning glitch sounds or works as normal until you use the added mods.

Ive added:

1/4" closed circuit output jack that shuts off the onboard speaker when you plug in

Looping switch with advance button used to catch sounds that you can then further manipulate in musical fashion

Beat Loop switch that catches beat loops of phenomes and words

Master pitch control knob that drops the pitch way down to sputtering bits

Opto theremin control with on-off for touch free pitch control and cool dives, etc\

Glitch switch 1

Glitch switch 2- these get the machine in experimental sputtering and non sensical phrasing

and reset button for when things get too far out and its time to start anew.

These are amazing little machines, i dont make many so get this one now before its gone.

Heres a very simple sample showing the loop with pitch control:
