This
is an old project that I never got around to fully finishing
or documenting. The bass amp is sitting in storage right
now after my cross-country move in '08, but I hope to
revist the project in the relatively near future.
If
I didnt give you the whole run-down already...I gutted
my bass amp and built it into this old Philco radio
cabinet...In that hole up top, there is an oscilloscope,
which is hooked into the output of the amp, so with
every note I play, a rippling, multithreaded Sine wave
is displayed on the scope.
Enjoy.
Update:
I am now considering making this a much more complex,
but way cooler project by creating a custom circuit
for the oscilloscope CRT. It will have a clock displayed
on the screen by default, then another mode for the
scope functions, another for some 'visualizations'
a la winamp, and while im at it...a guitar tuner mode...more
to come....i have to research CPLDs and see which one
I want to go with...im leaning toward either a BasicX
stamp or a Xilinx XC95000 family chip, but i'm not
certain yet. |
