MeeBlip Anode Synthesizer
Some times before I found on http://irieelectronics.de/diy-meeblip-anode/ and http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Mini-Bass-Synth-Meeblip-Anode/ the clone of the Arduino Bass Synthesizer, MeeBlip Anode. It is open source and easy to build. The cost will be about € 40,- if you order the most parts at chinese suppliers via eBay inclusive the enclosure and all accessories. All parts are are located…

String Synthesizer
This time I found something, that I always want to create: A string synthesizer. On the page https://janostman.wordpress.com/how-to-build-your-very-own-string-synth/ and http://bloghoskins.blogspot.com/2016/11/diy-arduino-string-synth.html is such a synthesizer described. It works on the basis of an Arduino. I do it without a keyboard, but with MIDI. It is with an original Arduino Nano as proposed. The control of Modulation,…
Read MoreUnimod – A Versatile Sound Effect Generator
I found this project in the US magazine Popular Electronics, February 1981. Here is the link to the document: Unimod-Sound-Effects-Generator.pdf. I was interested in how this effect sounds and after finishing it, I can only say it sounds interesting. The assembly takes place in a simple TEKO housing. I changed the circuit board a bit,…
Read MoreElectro Harmonix – Big Muff
A distortion device is also a fine thing, I thought to myself, and made one for myself. A Big Muff clone from Electro Harmonix. There are many different templates on the net. I decided me for one of http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.com. I used a simple TEKO case and glued it with hot glue. The distortion is easy…

In the December issue of the magazine Elrad from 1978 there was a sequencer, which I copied and used with my MS-20 and MS-10. Unfortunately I gave it away sometime, because I had sold both synthesizers. In the meantime I remembered this easy to build sequencer and rebuilt it. Since I don’t want to violate…
Read MoreSimplenZAR MIDI Sequencer
Since I have been building digital synthesizers most of the time lately, I needed a simple MIDI sequencer. I found it on the page http://www.roebbeling.de/wordpress/?p=85. The sequencer shown here seemed to be easy to set up and use. After I created it, I can say that it does exactly what I wanted it to do.…

Stella Synthesizer
From the book ARDUINO FOR MUSICANS is the Stella Synthesizer project. It is a synthesizer based on an Arduino and the Mozzi sound library. Built into a wooden cabinet, it is a simple and quickly assembled project. I created the circuit diagram with ExpressSCH: StellaSynth. I also made a board with ExpressPCB: StellaSynth. As always…

After I built a MeeBlip anode, I wanted to build the MeeBlip Triode. Now I finally had the opportunity to create a circuit board. Here is the result. Unfortunately I haven’t had time to verify my work yet, but I would like to present the result here. The one-sided layout I created with the free…

Arduino Granular Synth by Notes and Volts
The Arduino Granular Synth is a digital synthesizer based on an Arduino Nano. Here is the link to the page: https://www.notesandvolts.com/. Granular synthesis is a method used in some synthesizers and programs to create artificial sounds. The small synthesizer is absolutely fun and easy to use. But it is also easy to build. Unlike the…

MIDI Thru Box with 5 Outputs
I need a MIDI Thru Box and what could be more obvious than to make it myself. There are many good examples on the internet and I decided on this MIDI Thru Box. I used a simple case that I have already used for other projects and that fits well into my collection. On the…
