Let's Get Lofi 4 - DD10 + Pss-580 + DIY Distortion + DIY Mixer
YouTube via ChrisLody
"The Yamaha DD-10 has got to be one of the most Lofi programmable drum machine ever made. You can program 2 separate 2 bar patterns using 26 different drum sounds with 2 levels of velocity. I used a preset on this vid though as I was feeling a bit lazy. Amazingly it only cost me £2 from a carboot sale. Yeay.
I ran that through a distortion circuit based on Craig Andertons distortion circuit as forund in Handmade Electronic Music by Nicolas Collins. I added a touch point I found by accident which feeds the first inverter with the ouput of the second which sounds quite cool. It creates some great squealing and choppy sounds. Nice.
I programmed the Pss-580 with an editor with a nice bass sound.
I ran them both through a passive mixer which was also in Nicolas Collins book.
Yeay, great fun!"
