DIY Boss PC-2 / Amdek PCK100 Percussion Synth

"see http://hotchk155.blogspot.com/2010/06... for more info

I wanted to build one of these bloopy analog percussion synths based on the schematic and a photo of the Amdek PCB.. and I think I just about succeeded with this DIY attempt.

I used to own a PC-2 so I can tell a couple of things about this one aren't quite right, like the sweep range. I needed to improvise with a BA6110 IC instead of the ultra rare BA662A and find an alternative to the centre-tapped sweep pot, but most components are true to the Amdek kit. See the link above for more info and the PCB template for etching.

Apologies for sound synch issues on the clip"
