[hongdekong]

[trXtzW]

[harjinder14]

wow haha i love this

[Chadzxx1]

Very Cool! Are you making any scratch with these skills? Or do you work part-time at Arbys for the extra cash for your equipment?

[blaindugan]

@Chadzxx1 do you see all of that equipment in the background. LOL an arbys paycheck would not pay for that

[toomuchfreetime24]

I have that drum machine

[Ciaran55]

cool synth, looks ace; I'm just wondering how long did it take you to design the circuitry for it? How complex was it? I'm trying to understand how to make a synth...

[Harald136]

how much money did you spend to make that synthesizer?

[nathanielscott]

@Harald136 I started with a yamaha cso1 (what ever those are worth today) as a base for the design and parts, then add in $50 for the midi micro-controller kit, $150 for sequencer ICs other components and interface pots, and then $15 for the keyboard which came from a used midi controller. Oh and probably $40 in knobs.

[MrCamelneck]

I thought this was suppose to be the "cardboard synthesizer".

So Why on earth did you upgrade the cardboard "facade" (whatever that is?) to wood?

[MrCamelneck]

It looks like the cardboard synth is really half-synth and half-sequencer? Is this correct?

Are you using the Micro-Korg for that cheesy little sine wave lead?

[javiceres]

Oh...

[julieail]

I would've bought it.

[amumm459]

That synth is beautiful and sounds amazing

[nathanielscott]

Thanks.

[ChrisLody]

Your scraping it for parts! Blimey, think I'd just keep this forever, its a thing of beauty!

[Agent3]

Finally. And good edit.
