DIY Step Sequencer.
Posted: Mon Nov 16, 2009 7:50 pma mate of mine posted this on another forum, for general interest i thought i'd feed this question to the hungry pirannas on this forum. He's after a hopefuly very simple DIY step sequencer/kit, as he found out his newly acquired toy, a Bleep Labs Thingamagoop excepts CV in, etc.

So the Thingamagoop2 can accept CV, and I've a few other DIY things in mind for future idiocy that would utilise it too.
Can I DIY one... I'd consider my skills to be entry/moderate level hobbyist. Basic troubleshooting and circuit concepts aren't beyond my comprehension, but starting from scratch is out of my league.
Kits seem like a good option but they aren't cheap unfortunately. Since what I'll use it for will have a custom housing there's no need for prefab cases/panels so avoiding them to cut costs is ideal.
So far the Voice of Saturn sequencer seems easy enough, though 10 steps is a bit silly - would rather 8 or 16 for obvious reasons.
There's a few schematics going around, I guess I just want basic control of CV but having note duration would be handy as long as it's not too complex. Will search later on and post what I dug up at work today, if you know of anywhere for me to start with post it here - any input is appreciated.
