Homebuild Synth 7 - Peripherals

YouTube via organfairy — April 08, 2010 — "This is the final chapter of my little mini modular synthesizer building project. I make some usefull-but-not-crucial modules: A pedal, a PWM unit, an amplifier, and a power distribution system.

Again the music in this video is made on the Elka X-1000 organ - this time with a little help from the Technics SX-C600."

"After building an envelope generator it is time to build something it can control. Therefore this time I build a voltage controlled filter - or VCF - and at the end of the video I do a short demo.

The music in this video is played on the Elka Preludeo 22L (rhytm), Elka EP-8, Yamaha HE-8, and Viscount RBX-850 (melody) organs."

Homebuild Synth 5 - Sequencer

"I still have a way to go but this time I build an 8-step sequencer which means that I can actually start to make something that could resemble music with my little modular synthesizer. I do a short demo with the sequencer and the modules I have build so far at the end of the video.

"After last weeks weird video with artificial flowers, pink skirts, and German peace songs I though we needed to get down to earth again!

So I have made a little update to the building project I made last winter. I found that the keyboard on my mini modular synthesizer could need to go a little lower. Therefore I have made a frequency divider and this is what this video is about.

The music is played on the Böhm Station One workstation, Roland E-15 and Yamaha PSR-78 keyboards."

Homebuild Synth 1 - VCO and LFO

"I am going to build a mini-modular synthesizer around these two oscillators that I made some years ago and make a video series about the building process.

There are a short explanation on how it works in the middle of the video - NERD ALERT!!!

The music is played on the Elka X-1000 organ with a little help from the Elka EP-8."

Homebuild Synth 2 - Envelope Generator

YouTube via organfairy
"After having decided to build a mini modular synthesizer around my two existing controllable oscillators it is time to start adding the new modules.
This time I am building an envelope generator that will later control the VCF and VCA and maybe also a PWM on the completed synthesizer.

Again the music in this video is played on the Elka X-1000 organ with a little help from the Elka EP-8."
