Is anyone familiar with this or do this kind of stuff around here?synthnoise.com/mods.html

Yeah, I noticed the other day a couple of circuit bent toys on ebay...

but I have no idea exactly what's being done to them or how it is accomplished...

Anyone with a tutorial on this kind of stuff would be extremely helpful, as I have alot of audio toys that are just waiting to be torn to shreds in order to make otherworldly glitches.

Actually I think Josh Meredith modded some speak n spells... or I could be mistaken.

Either way I wanna learn how to do it.

i remember this from a long time ago, a friend of mine was into it. its pretty weird, something like altering circuits in old synths to create new sounds, craziness.

I have this kawasaki digital synthesizer, it's like a remco toy drum set. I took it apart to get at the board and i ran my fingers along it to try and get it to make sounds and found a few places. So, what should i do now, solder a potentiometer to those places on the circuit? How did that guy go about circuit bending his speak n spell?
