This channel is all about DIY synthesizers and electronics

founded 1 year ago
 

Over the last year I built this digitally controlled analog polyphonic synthesizer. All schematics and PCBs I created myself (except of the chorus). Please subscribe and like and get notified about upcoming videos on my channel.

It was harder than I thought to finish this project but I learned how to layout PCBs and a lot about vintage synthesizers.

0:00 - Voice Stacking/Detuning 0:34 - Envelope Generator 1:55 - Filter 3:10 - Filter with Envelope Generator 5:38 - PWM 6:48 - Filter Resonance with LFO 7:26 - PWM with LFO 8:53 - Filter Cutoff with LFO 10:28 - Arpeggio 13:45 - Chorus 15:11 - Arpeggio 18:24 - Arpeggio

All schematics and PCB layouts can be found on https://github.com/polykit

Specs are:

  • 6 voice polyphonic analog DCO based on Juno 106 using a single Raspberry Pi Pico
  • Sawtooth and square signal
  • PWM control (manual, LFO)
  • Voice stacking and detuning
  • MIDI input
  • MIDI pitch bend
  • MIDI portamento https://youtube.com/shorts/DGcm8E8b2Ko
  • CEM3350/AS3350 state variable filter
  • Lowpass and bandpass output
  • Frequency cutoff/center control (manual, ADSR, LFO)
  • Resonance control (manual, LFO)
  • LFO
  • 2x ADSR based on CEM3310/AS3310 (SVF, VCA)

Attention! This is not for beginners in electronics nor a finished product.
