Homemade Drum Machine + Synth


video upload by Lita

"TECHNICAL DETAILS:

Utilizing C ++ programming language on a Teensy 4.1 microcontroller board, the Drum Liberator emerges as a versatile amalgamation of a Drum Machine and Synthesizer. Boasting 12 distinct waveforms, 8 polyphonic keys, and a range spanning 6 octaves, it offers an expansive sonic palette. Additionally, it features 8 preset percussion sounds, an 8x8 neo-pixel grid for visualizing step sequences, and essential modulation tools like ADSR Envelope and LFO.

Equipped with MIDI IN/OUT/THRU ports, the Drum Liberator facilitates seamless synchronization with external hardware and MIDI clock integration. Functionality extends to pattern manipulation with options for start/stop, pattern clearing, channel selection, and editing for both drum and melody sequencing. Further enhancing its usability are an OLED screen, BPM control, and effects such as Delay, Reverb, Pitch, and Filter Decay/Attack.

Designed using KiCad, the electronic hardware layout for PCB manufacturing ensures precision and reliability. Moreover, its battery-powered operation makes it ideal for on-the-go musical exploration."
