The Spidey Synth

This is another instrument I built for a friend, because if I don't build it for someone else, it never gets finished. I have boxes and boxes of unfinished projects for myself.

Anyway, here it is...

When I saw the tiny spider man lunchbox at the store, I knew it would be perfect. I'm really happy with the way this turned out. 

Here is another angle...

Here is the schematic I used for it...

The only differences are that I added a switch in between pins 2 and 3 that selected between a photocell and the pot in the schematic, and another switch that selects between a 0.1uf ceramic cap and 1uf electrolytic cap on the first oscillator.

I've already given this one away so I can't make any recordings of it. I made a video though, just pretend like it isn't almost upside down...
