Accidental Polysynth


YouTube via MusicMiK
"Today, i played around a bit with the impressively simple VCO design of the Korg Trident. Analyzing some of its behaviour and adding sync between 2 of them with just one diode, i decided to add a 24db low pass filter also, which is inspired by the AAC Tiracon 6V filter.
By this, i sort of accidentally created a nearly complete and very simple synthesizer voice. Everything is linear controlled, but for a polysynth, i could use a multiplexed exponential converter like Korg did in the 80s.
Adding some analog switches, noise, maybe sub oscillators, this will give a very simple polysynth i think.
I will continue on this and i'm planning to make it an open source/hardware project for everyone interested in it."
