Title: Mandroid build
Post by: joltjrs on February 08, 2018, 12:09:15 AM
so i thought since all i needed to slap this badboy together was the ht8950 that i would just get it from amazon since shit it'll be here in two days. well finished her up and to my dismay the chip for the voicechanger vallman kit was a ht8950a. i'm missing two pins on it. well i plopped it in for shitsake and it plays but doesn't operate the options wah wa. i guess i'm to build a robot voice thing with it afterall. sucks. ready to rock the damn thing. :-\

in other words the kit linked in the build document did not have the correct ic. it was a 16 pin but we need the 18pin guy.

Sorry about that. I will change the doc to exclude that. You should be able to return the Vellman kit, I hope!

If it helps, I can check to see if I have a spare chip. I'd be happy to send it to you.

Well joltjrs that post of yours gave me a very acute mini panic, had to go to the shed to see how many pins my HT8950 has (I have bits ready to go for a Mandroid), rather relieved to see I fluked it and got the right chip.

I have an extra. The ones I bought were a three pack so I have a spare :)
