Pocket Drone
The Pocket Drone is like a baby version of the Beehive drone synthesizer. Using 2 of the 40106-ICs instead of 6. Still giving you a total of 12 oscillators with individual output and volume for each 40106 (so 6 per output). So in a way smaller footprint than Behive but still a very powerful drone synthesizer.
Pocket Drone User Guide
This device works on a single 9V battery (not included) or uses 9VDC power (2.1mm jack: center-negative).
Controls:
Button: ON/OFF with LED indicator.
Pots: The Pocket Drone has 12 oscillator pitch pots divided into 4 banks (from left to right) with individual volume pots. So 3 oscillators per volume. The banks are then grouped into 1+2/3+4 on the output.
Output: The output is a 6.3mm (1/4” for US people) stereo jack. Where the first two banks go to the tip and the second two banks go to the ring of the output. For panoration optimization and droneful experimentation!
Enjoy!
