"Light Miles" toy synth


via noystoise where you'll find more pics and details.

"i began this project in July and was finished by august. it started with a "Miles-388" keyboard, commonly known as the AK-900 or Hing Hon EK-001. i stripped the keyboard down to the chip and rebuilt it onto my Frankenstein proto-board...

On the top of the keyboard above the red section with all of the modulation hardware is the MIXER/PROG section. there are five red buttons for the program section and one five way switch directly below them in the modulation section. originally the keyboard has 8 rhythms, 8 timbres, and 4 drum sounds. originally each rhythm, timbre and drum sound had its own switch."
