I think TraceKaiser might help you with that. Try to PM him.
This is his video if I remember correctly.


edit: I'd also suggest getting the original Stylophone for circuit bending (even though TraceKaiser is using the new one)

Whoa, are we talking about the same thing? You mean this one, right?

It's Stylophone 350s, pretty cool machine and I wish I had one. But I meant the original Stylophone in the same form like the one you posted. It has all analog inner circuity. And you can get it for cheap on ebay.

Yeah, it looks very similar but the circuit inside is totaly different.
The one you got is reissue of the original 1968 model (on the picture with box).

It's not older, only a Pro version released approximately at the same time as the classic small one.



edit: And now you resurrected my suppressed desire to get the 350S yikes

What's the difference between the green boxed one and the pink boxed one?

Pink box is the original design (first produced in 1968). Had some variations over time.
Green one is reissue deisgn from 2007 (i think). Has more features (3 sounds, audio input) and similar sound but completelly different circuity.

Gotcha.  I have the one in the green box and I think I bought it in like 2008ish so that seems like the right time.  I thought the original one came in a white box.  I'd never seen the pink box before.

I like how they used to include records and manuals to teach the buyer to play a monophonic instrument that's less than 2 octaves.  If someone can't play a melody on a stylophone right out of the box, then they probably will never be able to play anything.

what about adding in a simple analogue/ digital filter? and/ or a pt delay circuit? aside from midi, feedback and the shit mods!

Hello.
I did octave switch instead on/off switch by adding some trimmers in my new stylophone
It's hard to tune it right now in every of three voices, but it can be done and it works nice
really usefull
i did a new on/off switch and 6.3 jack line out on the side of stylophone.
