I share my guides in the hopes that other people will enjoy following them and learning something new! Please remember to acknowledge LoFi Future when sharing your adaptation so others can access the info I provide and learn how to do it for themselves! 


001 - VGA CONVERTER FEEDBACK GENERATOR

In this guide we go through the process of hacking up a VGA cable that runs between to cheap VGA converter scalers (one VGA > CV the other CV > VGA) to create memorising "no-input" video feedback loops that put most video mixers to shame!

Its a simple guide that provides a nice basis to incorporate into your own enclosure. A more advanced / detailed guide is coming soon that will include a few more exciting features!


002 - VECT 'A' SKETCH DIY OSCILLOGRAPHIC GENERATOR


In this guide I show you how to utilise two cheap function generator kits and an amplifier module from eBay to create an oscillographics generator capable of drawing complex patterns on a modified CRT monitor.


In the guide i show you how to build the generator section and I also touch on the process of modifying CRTs for use as an X/Y display (DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK)
