Stumbled upon this video where someone has built a noise generator from 2 CMOS chips. Runs on 12V single supply.

What I liked was the odd inteference he creates by moving his hand near a 330k resistor.

I thought you guys might like it Very Happy

Cool find.

The slowed rise of +V ensures the shift register never starts up stuck at all 0s or all 1s. The cap at the clock input slows the rise and fall of the clock, making the clocking itself somewhat random. Clever.

Although the schema shows +12V, it looks like the guy was using four AAs to power the thing. Because the chips are cmos, it should work at as little as 3V.

Thanks.

If it will run OK at 9v then i might give it a try.

I was thinking you could mount the 330k resistor on your Lunetta somewhere and use your hand to create the random inteference while playing. Kind of like a "noise theremin" as someone said in the comments Smile
