First off, let me say some of you guys are truly skilled at modding, I am greatly impressed. I'm doing my second mod, which is going to be a "monster"...
Hi BW, I made the Phat Philterbank panel myself just by designing it in a photo program and then printing it out onto glossy printer label sticker paper. ...
Highly liquid of Ohio sells midi kits and other accesories for the sk bends. Check them out. They sell, or did sell DB-25 connectors for external patchbays and...
I recently finished an external patchbay for my sk-5, and I just used male and female DB-25 connectors. The number of pins on the connector corresponds to how...
does anyone know how to extend the sample time on the Sk-1? also does anyone have any schematics for a complex LFO which can be built into an SK-1? thanks...

You can't increase the sampling time as such, but you can increase the amount of samples it holds. You can replace the RAM chips (there are 2) with larger ones...
i am just off to my local electronic supply store for some goodies ,i will make sure to add the components needed for the memory expansion. have been eager to...
Hi Glen, I'll see if I can find my writeup I started doing for the SK-1 a while ago, it's at work on my computer so I dont have it here, I'll be in there on...
... Graham the write up for the sk-1 would be greatly appreciated. also thanks for all the information. with regards to the LFO has anyone got a more complex...

Hi everyone. As per requested, I've just uploaded the guide for the memory expansion for the SK-1. This will give you 4 banks of 16 sample memories, a total of...
im having trouble with putting a pitch bend into the SK-1. i'm using the points in Reeds book and i'm also using a 500k pot. i only seem to get a high pitched...
I'll take a look at this in the next couple of days and see if it should work. Theres a couple of points I'd wanna make; - The SK-1 uses DRAM instead of SRAM....
Hi Ryan, Please do scrutinize the the guide as much as possible, there is always that nagging feeling in the back of my mind that there is an error somewhere,...
"Even though the SK-1 uses two RAM chips, only one is accessed at a time. " I'm not sure that it would work properly though unless both chips were switched...
i agree props where due in your ebay adds. good thing the electronic supply near me didn`t have the ram i went looking for last week. plutoniq 9 .... - The...
I suggest picking up Texas Instruments LI-Ion backed SRAM from digi-key or Mouser. Should be in the documents in the file sections. This SRAM can retain it's...
Hi Glen, SRAM chips - the chips from an SK-5 should work for you but you'll need 2 of them. They will give you a 4x memory expansion in the SK- 1. You'll still...
This is a great circuit for the SK. It runs off +5V DC, so would suit the SK power supply nicely. Lots of waveforms to choose from. All you do is just hook it...
hi, thanks for the help, i don't suppose you could turn these schematics into something more 'user friendly' or so its easier to follow and maybe more specific...
The VCADRS looks very cool! Might this be a way to implement a cheap/compact (minimal parts) ADSR into the SK's? Two benefits I see; -VC ADSR inputs, so a...
It's just a generic op-amp in the circuit to boost the output level if needed. That whole extension circuit may not be necessary, depending on what you want to...
ok, so if i wasn't to include the extension circuit what should i do with those two wires going into in and the output? also could i use banana sockets instead...
You can get rid of the whole circuit that is attached to pin 5 of the PIC chip, just keep the 150 ohm resistor and LED. You then glue a light dependent...
