Hi Everyone,
I think this is a pretty dumb question but I am having trouble finding the answer or I am not understanding the answers I'm finding online...
Running at 9V I am oscillating the Schmitt Triggers on the CD40106, this will be used for audio purposes, eventually it will be used as a drone synth with 6 oscillators.
What I want to do is to turn each oscillator on and off as well as switch between capacitors to change the frequency range of each oscillator. This is easy with mechanical toggle switches but I have a bunch of momentary switches that I would like to use.
So, essentially, I'm wondering if it is possible and, if it is, how would I go about getting this functionality. As far as I understand 555 or CD4013 might be useful in this context.
For example what I would like to do is: One press of momentary switch connects pins 1 and 2 of CD40106 for oscillation, another press disconnects. For the 2nd momentary switch 1 press would connect pin 1 of CD40106 to a 0.1uF capacitor, 2nd press would connect a 1uF capacitor.
Sorry for the newbie question.
Thanks
