The RotoSeq

 

This device is a hand generator cranked rotary sequencer. It has 8 slots and 4 sounds and uses 4 LDRs into a picaxe to make sounds. When a marble is removed from the turntable a sound is made that corresponds to its position.

How to play

 

The RotoSeq is played by removing the coloured balls from the rotating platform, each colour represents one of 4 sounds and each position represents one of eight slots in the sequence.

 

 

 

A wheel within

 

At the heart of the RotoSeq is a PicAxe 28x processor witch takes information from the 4 LDRs, and generates the 4 lofi sounds in the sequence. The LEDs provide a constand light source for the LDRs and a modified servo is used to move the platform.
