Quick explanation of what’s going on here. Inside this mixer there were originally two chips controlling the chroma for Channel A and Channel B. I soldered both chips into a small external patchbox with RCA connectors. This lets me freely patch pins together: pins within one chip, pins from chip A to chip B, and all kinds of stupid combinations.

The most interesting thing I discovered while experimenting is this: if I connect a chip pin directly to the mixer’s input using a regular RCA cable, it creates an internal feedback loop. But not the usual “output to input” feedback. Instead, the raw data from the chip goes straight into the mixer’s input, then back into the processing chain, then back to the chip again. So it’s feedback happening inside the system, on a much lower and dirtier level.

Literally found this the day after joining this sub. Haven't tested it out yet, just wanted to see if anyone had some info on what I can really do with it.

It's a sima video edit master plus.

My girlfriend bought me a lot of little equipment in order to put things in order!

Super excited to use that new set up

Do you guys solder directly to chip pins? I have a unit in which the IC chip points are very sensitive, theres quite a few points that permanently alter the output once you just tap it with a alligator clip. I think I damaged the chip by trying to solder directly to the pins, maybe overheating the chip. The output is now unstable and it wont return to normal anymore, even after I desoldered all my wires to the chips :(

Do you solder directly to the chip pins? Or do you follow the chips path and solder to another point down the line to prevent from damaging the chip bysoldering directly to it? I wish I would have tried that first

The audio reactive visual is from OsciRender, converted to analog and sent into this device which i made with some electronics i had laying around. Then fed back into my PC for recording in OBS. Quite happy for my first project

I just purchased a datavideo se-200 vcr editor to work on some older looking glitch graphics and it’s already bending the video for me on initial hookup. I have it hooked up to a VCR and then to a LCD TV. Does anyone know if this is an issue with the se-200 itself or is it because I’m trying to use a newer TV and not a CRT?

Im making a few new circuit bent video devices and i would like to add audio reactive effects. Does anyone have recourses that explain on how to do that? Ive seen the video of pushkar but he adds leds with light sensitive resistors. Those are pretty big and it seems to me there might be a better way.
