No-longer-accidental Polysynth

Day #2 of this. Another 4 hours or so. Cleaning up the breadboard with immediately creating new chaos on the clean surface. But now, i can put everything of the voice onto it.
The goal is to have the complete synth, reduced to 1 voice, but the rest as in the 8-voice version, on the breadboard before soldering everything together. This is how development is done most efficiently, in my eyes. It's just a bit complicated to get everything on a breadboard, if the circuits get a bit more complicated.

Anyway - i hope, you like it, the project now has a name - PolyMiK (even if the MonoMiK and the MiK-one still are incomplete :), and i'm looking forward to get good progress in this thing.

But if I want play with a keyboard, for example, the synth module in this video, how can I do?

thank you for your time.

thank you for your time.

@bountykiller91 Ah, this is easy. You connect them using a cable.

@MusicMiK -_-"

@bountykiller91 Hm, this was the possible interpretation of the question i avoided for a simple reason - it's absolutely implausible.

If you want to "modulate" the output of a static frequency oscillator to give a desired pitch, you better go for complex digital circuitry, in best case a DSP with the right software. Or just use a pitch shifter.

Don't you think it's "a little bit" easier to just set the right control voltage for the oscillator?

@MusicMiK No, I Speak about notes not consonants :)

A = LA ( The fequency of LA at the fourth octave is 440Hz )

C= DO ( The fequency is 523Hz )

How can I modulate the output waves of synthesyzer at that frequency? What type of circuit I must build?

[MusicMiK]

@bountykiller91 For an "A", check the Wikipedia page about a Formant. "B" and "C", being consonants, are extremely difficult to make as they are way more complex waveforms using noise and so. But articles about speech synthesis might help.

But i might still totally misunderstand your question, as you mix modulation with wave shaping or maybe even mean something totally different than i interpret from your words.

Maybe google translate can help us if i still totally misunderstood you.

@MusicMiK Sorry if my question wasn't clear... I try to be synthetic: How can I modulate the output sound of the oscillators for do the keyboard notes sound (like A, B ,C ecc..ecc..) ? what circuit can do this ( AM modulator or FM modulator)? thank you.

[MusicMiK]

@bountykiller91 As there are absolutely no specifications what oscillators you mean, what kind of modulation you mean and what electronic skills you already have, it is not possible to answer it in the 500 characters available in a YT comment.

Please specialize your question a bit more.

As you seem to want to build synth circuits, i assume you have good electronics knowledge, which narrows your question to a very special kind of modulation as the normal stuff is obvious for an angineer.

[bountykiller91]

I have a question, What circuit I must use for modulate the sound of the oscillators??

whoa! great sound! how much? hahahahaahah i'll love to have an analogue synth (poly).
