POLYKIT-6 - New DIY Digital Controlled Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer

video upload by Polykit

"Over the last year I built this digitally controlled polyphonic synthesizer. All schematics and PCBs I created myself (except of the chorus). It was harder than I thought to finish this project but I learned how to layout PCBs and a lot about vintage synthesizers.

Specs are:
- 6 voice polyphonic analog DCO based on Juno 106
- Sawtooth and pulse
- PWM control (manual, LFO)
- MIDI input
- CEM3350/AS3350 state variable filter
- Lowpass and bandpass output
- Frequency cutoff controlled by ADSR and LFO
- Resonance control (manual, LFO)
- LFO
- 2x ADSR based on CEM3310/AS3310 (SVF, VCA)
- Juno 60 chorus clone

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

Attention! This not for beginnners in electronics nor a finished product."

Deckard's Voice and Surface S&H jam

"Improvisation using The Mosaic Quantizer as an arpeggiator into the Qu-Bit Surface while grabbing a note via the DivKid RND Step Sample & Hold module and pumping that into the Deckard's Voice. Meanwhile I brought a sequence into the Ona oscillator running through the Grit filter supported by Pico Drums and Noise Plethora through a Percall run by the 6quencer."

"The Korg Lambda, an unsung hero in the analog synth world. A lovely pad string machine and more, lush ensemble sound with a touch of percussion bell-like tones.

Shows normal wear and tear, AC plugged has been replaced and is missing the cord wrap mounts on the rear panel (does not affect the functionality of the synth). Definitely one of the cleaner examples we've seen come through our shop."

"A true classic of the late pre-MIDI era, the Korg Mono/Poly is a four oscillator monster, which can be used in a variety of voice modes. The spec on paper for the Mono/Poly is pretty amazing: four oscillators, two LFOs, two ADSRs, poly, unison, and chord memory modes, arpeggiator, and the tremendous cross modulation and frequency modulation section. The sound is rich, detailed, and expressive. This synth is a total monster and is in perfect working condition.

Cosmetically the graphics and paint are sharp and clean with nothing out of the ordinary, wood sides show average wear and tear."

Hardcore Krell with the DB-01

video upload by Richard DeHove

"When I explained to a friend that I was doing a Krell patch on the DB-01 they summed it up as: "Blips and bloops with added bass and distortion". That sort of hurt but actually seems quite accurate. The nature of a Krell patch is absolutely blips and bloops. At least using a DB-01 you avoid the next level of modular insult which is 'a $10,000 fart machine'.

On a more positive note, this little project does highlight that the Erica Synths DB-01 is a very fast and capable generative machine and an able sequencer.
(No other effects or processing of the sound other than what you see.)

"I love these panels, they have been a complete joy for me to use. The paperface are from Skyler and prism circuits. He’s been incredible to deal with and a real stand up guy. One is the Canvas system inspired by buchla. The other is a custom CV based panel I ordered from him.

It all comes in a pelican 1610 case. I’m also going to include a Lowgain format changer, bananas, and the ripcords that I bought so can use the case anywhere. Let me know if you got any questions or want more pictures. Splitting up isn’t ideal for me, but I would certainly consider it Thank you for taking a look!"

"This is the latest and optimal revision of the Filterbank 2 and you can differentiate them by the additional print underneath the 2 that explains the newly added Noise and Feedback Circuit

This instrument is essentially a desktop analog synthesizer but without oscillators meant to feed any oscillators or other sound sources through it although the filters also self oscillate so technically it does have oscillators

These instruments sound amazing"

12.19.21 Synton Fénix - Digital Noise into Phaser and Lowpass Filter

video upload by batchas

"The Digital Noise output goes into the Phaser modulated by an LFO and into the LPF (VCF4). The LPF is a bit opened, so it lets a bit of signal through and is also opened/closed via an envelope.
No external effect, no EQ or else. Direct out from Fénix."

Door #20: O Tannenbaum (O Christmas Tree) - Synthmas '21

video upload by Synthfluencer

"Ho-Ho-Ho! This is Synthmas '21, the virtual calendar presenting a Christmas carol played by synthesizers - every day from 1st to 24th of December.

The song:
This song was first mentioned around 1550. In the first place a tragic love song, it describes the ever-green and steady fir tree as the opposite to a unsteady philandering lover. In late 19th Century verses were changed and made this one of the most famous German Christmas Carols.

The gear:
I play the lead voice by hand using the Yamaha CS-80 and the Kawai Synthesizer 100F. Both built in the late seventees, these mono synths formed together with a Moog Prodigy, ARP-2600 and Roland Jupiter-4 the basic setup of Depeche Mode's Speak & Spell era. The Kawai 100F (also branded "Teisco") is a mono synth with a very unique sound. At first the synth seem to be quite basic but it has some very neat modulation options under it's hood.

Both synths sound is passed through chorus / delay effects and backed by Deepmind pad and Blofeld arpeggio sound.
