Today I started to build a Steiner Parker filter on a circuit board that I got as a gift. It is the Yusynth circuit.
Then something was missing and I switched off the soldering iron and built a small double stand for my Volcas, I have a Volca sample and will get another Volca key in the next few days. When he arrives, he will have a nice place immediately
At the moment Iâm not so flashed by my modular anymore, the small finished boxes are just a little more fun for me. Perhaps the step to start with a modular one was too many. Especially when it doesnât work as it should.
Nevertheless, because I only have 2 inputs on my audio interface, I also need effects for the finished synths. And I would like to continue building it myself. Do you have some good tips for me, especially for GOOD delays and reverbs, distortion and everything else you need. Preferably with a link to a stripboard layout.
Coming togetherâŚ
Realised I had a pair of plague bearers in a box that never sounded right when running my audio through them. Obviously they are meant to be blasted by a modular!
So I quickly whipped a module up with one.
Love a big switch. âKa-chunkâ
I have a couple of 1920âs knife switches I want to use in a synth but Iâve only used them so far for rockets and fireworks.
Hi,
so how is the second version working ?
It says âLatest versions in the repository contain untested modifications; see tagged releases for verified versions.â
Because I ordered the latest versionâŚ
Thanks,
Unfortunately I had to remove the latches for the lid, they protruded 5mm into each side of the case.
At least I can carry it from home to the studio.
No - They should not be there - Still trying to sus out all of the wiring with a friend.
There is VCA circuitry but she is just droning away - Trying to figure out the the on/off aspect -
A couple of us think that this was before Peter fine tuned everything to allow for dead silence when not touching the Piezos or Scroll buttons.
Right now the Piezos create an unwanted HUMMMMMM and Click every so often but then function properly when 2 of the scroll buttons are held -
A little more to add to the challenge is that these are not âmyâ board conversions - So I am not as intimate with this circuit lol.
@Bitnik - I usually start with one section - one quadrant of a build at a time - since a lot of ciat-lonbarde stuff repeats the same oscillators and control functions over in pairs, or multiples through a lot of his circuits.
He seems to use a lot of the same theories or ideas from project to project. - sometimes with different functions.
It is nice to have an established community in a couple other Forum Spaces where we all talk about ciat-lonbarde
