"Here is a look at the speak and spell that I recently bent. There is a tutorial here....
It is also for sale on ebay at this address....
The tutorial will show you how to bend one of these wonderful machines."
via this auction"This is a brilliantly modified Texas Instruments Speak and Spell. It has 5 main bends or modifications. Of course you have a pitch adjustment knob. That can also be toggled on and off with the switch right to the left of it.
You also have a loop or repeat feature that is really creative and fun. You can activate this mod by the switch in the far left of the row of 4. Also it can be activated momentarily by the black pushbutton at the top left. The next three switches are crazy cool bends. They throw this into a frenzy of insaine sounds. The great part about this bend is that it doesn't crash. One minute you are making crazy out of this world sounds, turn off all the mods and the next minute it acts as if it was never bent.
The front panel has been replaced to allow for more room. I love the look of this and have yet to see it anywhere else. Behind the new panel are 3 blue LED's that I included to make this look just amazing."
