Circuit Locution

Sure, there are other electronics resources out there. See the links sidebar for suggestions. But generally, they’re aimed either at hobbyists with an electronics background, or at a general audience.

I’m trying to focus largely on electronics-for-dummies or electronics-for-experimental-musicians. The bending community is full of people with little-to-no electronics background who don’t even know where to start – it’s not exactly a straightforward and accessible subject.

So if posts and articles seem a little informal, it’s because you, the reader, probably don’t care about the deep math behind concepts. You want to know if you’ll get a neat new sound if you hook something up with something else, and what components to use to keep your creations from melting. You want to know how to make a vactrol, or how to use a transistor to make your own amplifier.
