Speak and Maths You Tube demo

At last, I finally manage to do a 1min 40sec clip. It's not fabulous, but it does give an idea of what its capable of. 1 of the glitches causes it to crash (not in the clip) but it is savable, with out the use of the reset switch. I love this thing, well worth the 10 month wait!

Speak & Maths update

Progress has been fast and I already have the thing finished. First of all here is a pic of SAM with its inards hanging out, about a 3rd way through the bending:

And now finally, the finished product, after approx 10 hours work:

Now the spec: 6x Glitchs (switched), 2x Glitches (body contact), 2x Loops, Distortion (with attenuation), Pitch/Speed (with limiters to avoid crashing), LED indicator, Full reset.

Sound range is quite different to SAS due to different sounds and vocabulary.
Video demo to follow shortly...
