"all chips and capacitors were pulled from dead electronics pcbs laying around.

the 3372 was pulled from my chroma polaris that went bad years ago (you do the membrane upgrade,

not me). - so vco / noise/vc mixer/vcf/vca with the asm-1 lfo and ian fritz’ ad/ar circuit. the vco is rene’s 4069 VCO - the noise is gravenhorst’s PIC based digital noise - which i had in another unit that i took apart. noise enters the synth through the VCO’s pulse width input via a pushpull pot/switch (pot is pitch)"

The Peaceblaster - Custom DIY Monome Doepfer Keyboard

"i picked up a 5-octave fatar keybed and MKE electronics from doepfer via analog haven. he carries 2-5 octave bare keybeds with simple channel/octave controls, all fatar (the highest quality italian-made keybeds you can get…and doepfer is the ONLY place you can order a keybed from fatar without being a manufacturer). the 8 knobs and faders are the doepfer PKE, a super simple plug and play solution that could have been a midibox or arduino. add a edirol midi>usb cable, usb hub, and multi-voltage power supply and i’ve got one power plug, one usb port, and midi out to drive hardware synths. i’ve left room in the enclosure for a mac mini (or small form factor pc or linux box)…but that’ll be a stretch of my willpower to get it done."

"*please listen to this with headphones or speakers with substantial bass (i.e. NOT laptop speakers) if you want to hear what's going on in the lower register (not much anyhow, but near infrasound sine waves are always cool).

anyway, here's for you other noisy type nerds, in case you were interested."
