Building something like this (the bit crusher/wave shaper/down sampler part) should be quite easy using mostly simple digital parts, I think. How about having the signal going through some sort of S/H IC, of which the rate is controlled by a 555 or whatever, then through an 8-bit A/D, addressing a ROM containing all the wave shapes, then, depending on SPDT switches, either through inverters or straight to a D/A and out? Little-scaaaaaaleeeeee!

it nice to see that the builder is willing to make some mods for potential customers.

but with all parameters controllable by midi CC? program changes and sysex for midi?
the more i read the more i want one. it sounds so good and just looks like fun, which is a big part of what i look for in music gear.
