Diy modular full cmos synth + pt2399 moded delay module
Capacitor Decoupling Chaos, And Why You Should Abandon 100 NF (hackaday.com)
Timely, since I recently misplaced my big bag of 100nF through hole MLCCs, somehow.
I designed a Disting Ex/mk4 MIDI breakout panel in OpenSCAD (thingiverse.com)
3D printable. To my knowledge, there isn’t another MIDI breakout for Disting that has both 5 pin MIDI DIN and TRS sockets.
I made a fork of the EuroPi hardware
The EuroPi is a neat multi-functional eurorack module by Allen Synthesis, based on the Raspberry Pi Pico (and soon to be even better with Pico 2 support which should make it feel snappier !).
The Making of LinnStrument
Mac-Salad eurorack multi-utility module schematic (wandering.shop)
jepyang just posted these schematics ( https://github.com/jepyang/Mac-Salad ) - it’s a neat looking combo of utilities with some interesting normalization. A vactol crossfader/panner, envelope follower, wave folder thing, rectifier, AND+OR analog logic, a slew type thing, some VCAs.
Porting Synth_Dexed to Raspberry Pi Pico (mastodon.social)
A new Teensy 4.x Ornament and Crime is coming.
MIDI over CAN bus for modular synthesisers (hackaday.io)
A project looking to use MIDI (2.0 !) over CAN bus within a modular system. Appears to be a nice foundation with some hardware and software designs - will be interesting to see if this goes anywhere.
picoTracker : a Raspberry Pi Pico based tracker (from LittleGPTracker) (github.com)
… another thing added to the to-build wish list :)
Introducing Pet Rock (the rogue-like moon based Eurorack module) (lemmy.sdf.org)
Synth Power Filtering: To Bead or Not To Bead ?
DarkSky-4, a new stereo analog polysynth
Music From Outer Space (musicfromouterspace.com)
This one is Ray Wilson’s DIY synthesizer website.
I made a 3D printable vactrol capsule (thingiverse.com)
I’ve made vactrols in various ways in the past - black electrical tape, heat shrink, other 3D printed enclosures. This is my latest attempt, to use with an NLC Dispersion Delay build (the design is directly inspired by the vactrols seen in photos in the NLC build docs). I like to sand off the end of the LED so it’s flat and superglue it to the LDR, but I’m not sure this is really necessary.
synthdiy podcasts ?
Can anyone recommend some good #synthdiy podcasts, especially with interviews or discussions with makers ? I stumbled upon the MakerChat SynthDIY podcast recently and enjoyed this laidback chat with Benjie Jiao, now I’m wondering if there’s some niche gems out there I’ve not discovered.
