Synth-in-a-box


Or rather a CD/DVD spindle. You can find more pics here.

"On a lazy Sunday afternoon, some time back now. I decided to build a synthesizer.
Analogue electronics is not really my thing, I’m much more a digital person but when I found a design online for The #3 Standard WoggleBug by Grant Richter, I just had to build one. Neat circuits, who needs 'emFirst I built the circuit on some veroboard. This thing is controlled by a bunch of potentiometers, there is no keyboard and certainly no MIDI! Then I was wondering what to make for an enclosure. My friend Jasper found an empty CD spindle and you know, it was just crazy enough to work."
