BAKVENDT - ILF Reverse Delay Thing!

[Pladask]

Cross-posting this here... this be a taste from a band gig I played last month: https://hearthis.at/mechanical-forest-sound/stargoon-excerpt-live-2018-10-12/

That's beautifully strange and playful! Glad Bakvendt could be a part of it!

That price is just ridiculous. Will anyone buy that? I don't understand

[shikawkee]

What's really insane is a buddy of mine really wants one and authorized me to offer $400 (which is ridiculous) and the settings for the listing rejected it outright. He must really think he's gonna' get $6-700. for it. Wow.

Are you accepting bribes for another batch yet?

[Pladask]

Haha no. I'm too busy with FABRIKAT and other projects at the moment. Maybe in the summer/fall? Who knows.. I'll be sure to let you guys know if anything happens.

Just build and quietly flip one by one on Reverb for the apparent $600 going rate LOL

$mart! 100

I love the simplicity and size of the Bakvendt. If you ever do another run, I'm in.

I need to do more explorations with the BAKVENDT.
It's fun to capture a weird texture in a looping style
and then add more textures on top.

Switches and sitches are for flipping.

Noice! Thanks for keeping the dream alive

[Pladask]

Hey just letting you ppl know I haven't abandoned this project. We'll see how things progress. I'm kinda swamped with work and planned work atm. Will do a lot of smaller workshops after summer and get some design work out of the way. If I did do another batch at some point it would probably some kind of redesign so as to make the effort more exciting.

[elefontpress]

So cool to hear! Good luck with everything and glad to see Pladask’s popularity is keeping you busy!

[doralin]

Awesome, count me in for the next batch when it happens

more exciting.

Thanks for holding onto the love.

...to make the effort more exciting.

All effort is exciting.

Had some leftover time on a trip recently and decided to revisit this thing. Haven't tested anything yet, but I think both the code and graphics look promising. Hopefully I'll be able to test it some time this Autumn. Below is the current graphic displayed with a gerber viewer (won't be so colorful). The red sections would be exposed FR4 backlit by LEDs.


The system clock parameter doubles as a program selector when in momentary bypass. Additional footswitch to maximize the looping. Ditching the grain direction switch and instead offering both forward and backward granular delay/stretching. Random vibrato (MOD) to make it more lively. The core schematic for this thing is laughably simple so it was fun to see how much functionality I could squeeze into it without adding too much extra circuitry.

Feedback is welcome
