Concept
This circuit can create more complex noises than the original one since it uses all 4 NAND Gates of the chip. Depending on the used values of the parts it can produce metalic spectra or polyrhythmic beats. A optocoupler is used to control one of the NAND gates with a control voltage.

Schematics
All 4 NAND Gates are connected in series from C to B to A to D. The values of the according capasitors are decreasing resulting in a higher frequency from the first to the last gate. The A/B switch connects the A or B NAND gate to the A/B Out-Jack. The B-IN switch connects supply voltage or the C NAND gate to the B NAND gate. The CV-ON switch turns the control voltage on/off. a transistor is used as a LED driver for the optocoupler.

Modifications
On the board you find direct out connections for the signal all NAND gate oscillators (OUT A - D). These can be used for nice modifications. Connect an LED with appropriate resistor between these outputs and ground for a visual feedback. There are several ground points on the board (GND 1-4) already. One of the outputs can also be connected to the normalised CV In connection of the optocoppler. Like this you the CV modulation will work without conection the CV In.
Built Devices
Micronoise pro in a case with additional 4 switches for routing signals of the NAND gates to the control voltage in. There is also a DIP socket for chosing the NAND gate that is controlled by the control voltage.
For this micronoise pro a laser cuted plexi front plate was used. The pads of the NAND gates output were connected to 4 LED with different colors to get a visual feedback of the sound.
