The SEEDS is a complex powerful 8 bit oscillator and can be used as a complete synthvoice.On the sound-design side you might notice some 90's popular music influences. There are two reasons for that. First of all; those sounds are a natural match for the rather modest (8 bit, 16MHz) Atmel chip on the Arduino Nano we're using. That music was made using digital synthesizers using the processors available at the time, and those had to make the most of the chips available at the time, which were quite comparable to the Nano. The second reason is that those sounds are a lot of fun. Once that link became clear it became more a of a guiding principle than a potential problem; it seems more sensible to lean into such links than it is to resist them.The Arduino in the SEEDS kit is already programmed, but in case you need to re-install the firmware you need the Arduino IDE installed on your computer and install the CH340 driver to communicate with the Arduino Nano. The latest Arduino IDE can be downloaded from the Arduino website: https://www.arduino.cc/en/main/software The CH340 driver can be found here: https://sparks.gogo.co.nz/ch340.htmlThe firmware will be updated regularly so you might want to keep an eye on it to get fresh sounds in your SEEDS every now and than.Features:• The original “Grains” sound. Two triangle-wave formant peaks synced by the main oscillator. The “mod” knob sets a formant peak.• Triangle wave with wave-wrapping. The “mod” knob sets the amount of wave-wrapping.• Super-saw, featuring three detuned saw waves with a PWM feature modulated by an LFO.The “Mod” knob controls the LFO rate.• Classic FM; a “carrier” sine wave phase modulated by a second sine.

zetaSID is a compact 4HP Eurorack synthesizer voice that brings the legendary SID sound into a modern modular format. Based on the MIDIbox SID synthesis engine, it offers deep digital sound design, animated OLED visual feedback and powerful expansion through the midiphy phybus system.A single zetaSID works as a monophonic CV/gate-controlled SID voice, while multiple units can be linked into a larger polyphonic instrument. With nexusMIDI and phybus expansion, zetaSID can grow into a full MIDI-controlled synthesizer with up to six stereo voices, while unused CV and gate inputs can be reassigned as additional modulation sources.The sound engine includes six LFOs, two advanced envelopes, eight modulation paths, four wave sequencers, three oscillator arpeggiators and a 24 × 14 trigger matrix. This allows everything from classic chiptune tones and animated arpeggios to acid-style basslines, evolving digital textures and percussive C64-inspired sounds. zetaSID also includes Lead, Bassline and Drum engines, giving it a wide range of synthesis options in a very small footprint.The integrated OLED display visualizes oscillator outputs, arpeggio patterns, filter curves and other sound parameters, making patch editing more immediate. Thanks to phybus UI cooperation, multiple zetaSID modules can work together as one expanded interface, with different units controlling different parts of the same patch.zetaSID ships with 100 preset patches in its internal ROM bank and supports optional microSD storage for session recall and patch handling. With its milled aluminium front panel, compact depth and strong modular connectivity, zetaSID is a powerful SID-inspired Eurorack voice for chiptune, basslines, drums, experimental synthesis and expandable polyphonic setups.Features• Compact 4HP Eurorack SID synthesizer voice.• Based on the MIDIbox SID synthesis engine.• Monophonic CV/gate control or expandable polyphonic MIDI setup.• phybus expansion for multi-unit linking and UI cooperation.• Up to six stereo voices with 12 linked zetaSID modules.• Lead, Bassline and Drum sound engines.• Six LFOs, two envelopes and eight modulation paths.• Four wave sequencers and three oscillator arpeggiators.• 24 × 14 event trigger matrix for deep sound design.• Animated OLED display for oscillator, filter and pattern visualization.• 100 factory ROM patches included.• Optional microSD support for saving and recalling sessions.• CV input, gate input and Eurorack audio output.

Chord Organ is the easiest way to get chords from a modular synth!• It's perfectly possible to create chords on a modular synth, but its a pain - lots of tuning and messing about. I wanted to create something as simple as a home organ with chord buttons. Chord Organ is exactly that; the top knob chooses a chord shape, the bottom a root note.• The full story of Chord Organ, including how it was inspired by a Bontempi Organ found in the street, is in this article over on Medium.• Chord Organ and Radio Music are identical modules; you can convert one to the other by installing new firmware over USB - details on how to install the firmware - and go back just as easily.• This video shows what you can do with a Chord Organ in a simple little case. Here the chord shape and root note are sequenced by an expanded Turing Machine and filtered through a God's Box Humpback Filter.• The top knob chooses the chord shape (Major, Minor, Drop 3 9th). The bottom knob chooses the root note. Both can be CV controlled.• The latest firmware now includes:• A choice of 12 waveforms (the original just had four) Program chords by uploading MIDI files Easy to use configuration page. Alternative tuning support by dropping standard Scala files onto the SD card (installation details).• There’s a long history of press-button-to-get-chord instruments; accordions, the Suzuki Omnichord, the Autoharp, or all those auto-accompaniment electronic keyboards that you used to see.Basically Chord Organ is a new firmware for the Music Thing Modular Radio Music module. It gives the module a completely different function. Instead of playing samples from the SD card, it synthesises chords. This is the full Chord Organ kit with dedicated Chord Organ silver Alu panel and button.Note: you need to purchase a MicroSD card and a Micro-B USB Cable elsewhere to set up this module. The Micro-B cables are the smallest type shipped with Kindles and many Android phones. You also need a card reader to write files to the SD card, many laptops and desktops already have them built in now. The very cheap $2 MicroSD cards are not worth the trouble they will cause you, buy genuine SanDisk or Kingston branded MicroSD cards from Amazon or elsewhere. 32Gb maximum… that’s 108 hours of lossless audio in 16bit 44.1khz.

1) Magnetophon is a cassette player without the transport mechanism — a mono cassette head in the panel and a NAB equalised amplifier circuit, this is a tool for experiments with tape.2) Magnetophon is a tool for experiments with tape. Try rubbing old cassette tapes on the panel, or attach a head on a wire to recreate Nam June Paik’s Random Access or Laurie Anderson’s Tape-Bow Violin.3) NAB stands for National Association of Broadcasters. Their Reel-to-Reel Standard of 1965 specifies how tape heads should be amplified. If you plug a tape head into a microphone pre-amp, you get a very tinny sound with no low frequencies at all. Tape playback amplifiers (like the one in this module) boost bass by up to 10dB at 16Hz, while cutting highs by up to 20dB at 20kHz. Tape recorders apply the opposite curve when recording to tape.4) Don't expect a handheld cassette head rubbing against free-running tape to sound very hi-fi. It turns out all that head alignment and bias adjustment stuff wasn't BS after all.5) When experimenting with normal cassette tapes, a few things to remember: Stereo tapes carry four signal tracks; Left & Right Forward, and Left & Right Backward. So expect a bit of chaos.6) I've experimented with spoken word and language cassettes, forgetting that a decent proportion of them is just silence between words.7) If you have a reel-to-reel tape recorder, you can use an external tape head in a binder clip as a holder for tape loops. This will create a second output from the loop. It's likely to be MUCH lower fidelity than the main tape recorder output, but can sound really interesting mixed with the original signal (very Brian Eno tape loop-ish). Here's a quick demo of this technique from Brighton Modular Meet.8) The tape head inside the panel is fairly impractical for tape use, but can potentially be used for playing the magnetic strips on credit cards, MetroCards and the like. It will also pick up any electromagnetic noise and interference within your case (from switching power supplies, digital modules, colour-changing LEDs and the like).9) This is a fairly primitive and very high-gain circuit. In some situations, particularly when using the internal head, the circuit can oscillate. At audio frequencies this will sound like a whine. At frequencies above human hearing, it can just sound like silence, which drowns out whatever signals the tape head is trying to amplify. There is an empty spot for an extra capacitor on the PCB (C7). If you're having problems, try a small capacitor there; maybe 470pf, 1nf or more. Higher values will reduce the overall high frequency response. When using the external head, the capacitance of the cable seems to reduce the problem.10) This is a fairly simple build, but a rather exotic module. If you have any issues, the best way to get help is to check the GitHub Issue List, and remember to check closed issues as well as open ones.DIY-Kit-Type:THT-Kit-1.

1) Radio Music is a virtual radio module, so it behaves a bit like a radio. It is designed to be a source of unexpected audio, not a drum loop player or a sample mangler. That said, plenty of people enjoyed it for playing drum loops or mangling samples.2) Radio Music has been a popular DIY project since 2014, and has been used by Chris Carter, Russell Haswell, Richard Devine, and Robin Rimbaud.3) In 2017, the module's firmware was completely rewritten and updated, bringing new features including pitch shifting, .wav file support and a new way to configure settings on the module. You can download the latest firmware here, which will run on any Radio Music module.4) On the same site you can configure your Radio Music, changing various internal settings.5) It's a well documented project, with a lengthy Radio Music Wiki and an active issues list for people seeking help with a build.6) The wiki also contains a huge suggested audio bank containing lots of interesting things.7) Like a radio, the module works on a series of banks and stations. Each of the 16 banks can contain many different stations. Each station is an audio file stored in a folder on the SD card. Choose a bank by pressing and holding the RESET switch. Choose a station by turning the STATION knob or plugging a voltage into Station.8) Because the audio streams from the SD card, it can handle long files easily. In the default setting, it switches between long recordings just as if they were radio stations — as if the audio was playing in the background.9) Radio Music runs on a Teensy 3.1 (or 3.2) microcontroller, which is programmed by USB and runs a very well documented Arduino-like language, so it's easy to hack.10) There are multiple alternative firmwares for Radio Music documented in the github, and on Voltage Control Lab including:- Chord Organ is just an alternative firmware for Radio Music, but is also available as a separate module. You can turn a RM into a CO (or vice versa) at any time using a normal Micro USB cable.- Telharfauxnium is an additive synthesis firmware.- James Carruthers has written several different firmwares, including a cool 808 drum machine- I often use this Loop Divider firmware to sync everything to loops in a small case.Note: you need to purchase a MicroSD card and a Micro-B USB Cable elsewhere to set up this module.

This is the DIY Desktop version of this unit, but it can also used as an Eurorack module. Plinky is an 8 voice expressive polyphonic touch synthesizer that specializes in fragile, melancholic sounds, designed by mmalex.Think of it as an eight stringed instrument, with eight vertical monophonic strips. You can play it straight away on its 64 main pads. Each of the eight strings has 4 oscillators or sampler grains, detuned by the touch of your fingers, white noise, two ADSR envelopes and a resonant 2-pole low-pass gate. Plinky also has a global delay, reverb, high pass filter and saturation along with a simple mixer, arpeggiator, sequencer and sampler. It supports four external CV modulation sources, each with their own LFO.Plinky was released in 2021, then hit hard by the chip crisis. In coordination with Plinky’s creator mmalex, Making Sound Machines are bringing back Plinky both as assembled unit and as a beginner-friendly DIY Kit.Plinky v3 integrates TRS MIDI input and output directly on-board, so you sequence polyphonic chords externally and play a melodic line on top on its touch surface.The revision also upgrades to USB-C, optimizes the build experience, and introduces improvements to the audio path.Works as standalone unit with USB-C power or Eurorack power cable.

Polyphonic Synth VoiceBread & Butter is a General MIDI based polyphonic synth voice with 128 selectable instruments plus a drums preset. The sound banks have a synthetic and warm quality to them, and the variety of instruments makes this module a flexible and fun addition in any system.Bread & Butter features the standard V/OCT and GATE inputs for triggering the synth voice. Thanks to a polyphony of up to 64, the voices will decay independently making it possible to ratchet chords that decay polyphonically. If the HOLD function is engaged, each note will also sustain. In addition, the MIDI input can be used simultaneously with the V/OCT and GATE inputs. For example; trigger the drums on MIDI channel 10 while generating a bass line via the V/OCT/GATE inputs. The synth voices can also be played polyphonically via MIDI.The module features stereo outputs and the PAN knob lets you spread the polyphonic voices out in the stereo sound field. Parameters such as pitch bend, velocity and instrument selection can be voltage controlled.Features:• CV input range: +/- 5V• Gate input voltage: 3,3-10V• Polyphony: Up to 64 voices (40 voices with sustain)DIY-Kit-Type:SMD-Kit-1.
