:shock:yet another module. I think it unlikely that as a machine he could be this fast
more likely he just cloned himself eleventy times and dragged a wholebunch of fresh new minikev's out of storage to build when he wants
very nice module by the way. Wink

Thanks! Feels good to get to this point, especially in an acoustically treated room.

It was chaos here for the last 4 months so I'm going to enjoy the non-mess for a moment.

Well this one has taken a while.

Learning to use the headers and crimp (and solder) all of those wires was a bit of a task to say the least. And getting them all wired to the panel was quite fun too! The 15v supply was another story altogether!!

Still it's done at last. Needs a case knocked up and one of the four voices isn't working yet so there's a bit of trouble shooting to do but I have three happy drums which is great.

Now I can get properly stuck into the lunetta rhythm maker I've been toying with to trigger this thing.

Cheers

Ahhhh, finally done with my winter project, a synth in a box with normalized connections for ease of playing, from an earlier post in this thread. I have added an Acoupel midi-CV converter and messed with a few things since then, but it's pretty much the same.

jordroid, that looks clean and awesome!

But I'm even more curious about that little doodad on the right - the thing with the solderless breadboards on it. What is it?

jordroid · Joined: Jan 17, 2010 Posts: 193 Location: ithaca, new york

Ha, it's a breadboard with a bunch of handy stuff built in, a power supply with +5 volts and adjustable + and - rails, a function generator, a couple of pots, switches, logic stuff and a tiny speaker. I find it super handy, especially the power supply and function generator.

I live near cornell university, and this one was found in a dumpster up there with two others just like it, which went to friends. All three work perfectly, although they all have evidence of some serious DIP barbeque action, you can see a few brown spots where the plastic was melted.

I have a few other (less fancy) breadboards from "up the hill" as well. It's a longstanding tradition here to go dumpster diving right as the students are leaving, they tend to throw out some pretty choice items in their rush to leave town, especially the EE's Smile

Beautilful work, Captain and Jordroid. Will look forward to hearing these creations!

I probably don't really need another Voltage-Controlled filter however, for reasons that I don't quite understand, I enjoy building filters.

The Steiner filter is not a complicated filter however it works amazingly well.

To have a front-end mixer for the audio adds to the versatility of the filter. I like to have at least three control voltage inputs, too.

The PCB behind the panel. At the top left, you can see the resistors I added for additional audio inputs. Since the input stage is an inverting op-amp, this was an easy mod.

Wow, that proto-board is awesome. I've been picking up parts to build something similar, but designed specifically for synth/audio development. I can't find anything like those mini-breadboards on each of the modules. What you've got there would be worth $100 just for the PSUs, and it comes with so much more. Nice find!

Access to the Cornell EE dumpster, sounds like the beginning of a cool sci-fi story in there somewhere Laughing

Lucky dude.
