NLC - Primal HyperChaos - Build notes - part 1

These are my build notes for the nonlinear circuits Primal Hyperchaos module.
Its a Eurorack format.


It's a chaos module of course.

easy to build.
all common parts



You can run it at different speeds by installing different caps.
100nF to 1uF will work. 
All 4 caps should be the same value and must be voltage rated for 25V or more
fast = 100nF
medium speed = 1uF
Slow = 10uf
super slow 20uF

If you wish to blend the different caps 
in order to change speeds build the Hyperchaos Deluxe.

There are 5 CV outs and one gate output.
It needs just one input.


Charles Addams was an American artist and cartoonist known for his darkly humorous and macabre characters. He signed his cartoons under the pen name Chas Addams. 
He created the fictional family The Addams Family.
 

 
Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly.



 
 
 
 
More NLC words of wisdom

Primal chaos is the original reality ..... or not
 
I'm not sure where this quote originates .
 
Primal Chaos was sometimes said to be the true foundation of reality, particularly by philosophers such as Heraclitus.
 
Chaos, (Greek: “Abyss”) is discussed in early Greek cosmology 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
ICs, diodes, etc
LL4148 diodes 6 Mouser 512-LL4148 
TL074 3 SOIC Tayda A-1137 
S1JL or similar 2 Mouser 821-S1JL, dot=cathode
 
  
This is the rear of the sole PCB

 
Resistors next
 


Caps
Using 100nf .. so should be fast.
