Modular Synth
Having never before played a modular synth, I entered into the work of DIY synthesizers in Winter 2021. I didn't want to use any kits or pre-made modules as I really wanted to learn through the process so I began from the ground up. I began designing PCBs based on schematics I found online, and built them onto homemade panels. Over the past year and a half I have gotten a lot better at this process, have begun designing my own modules and have created homemade modular systems for a few musicians!
Synth I made for a bass player who wanted a modular system he could play bass through.
Synth I made for a saxophone player who wanted a modular system that could make
really noisy sounds along with his playing.
