Some rambling on the polysynth #synth #analog #synthdiy


video upload by POLYKIT SYNTH

"Here is some rambling on the last build steps of the polysynth. It took me more than two years to come this far. I finished the input section and build the acrylic case out of parts that I ordered. It was the fist time I glued acrylic and I think it turned out great!

Sorry for the quiet voice in the demo part!

Key features of the synth:
8 independent analog voices
one VCO/VCA/ADSR per voice
ADSR can modulate filter frequency and resonance
multi-mode filter (8 different filter responses)
fully programmable
store/restore patches
programmable control/input section
16x2 LCD
MIDI input

If you are interested in the build process make sure to check out the playlist: [below]

video upload by WheelRock

"The CZ-5000 is a digital synthesizer released by Casio Computer Co., Ltd. in 1985.
This year, 2025, marks its 40th anniversary. When we first got our hands on this instrument, we were still in middle school. Since then, we’ve created countless pieces of music using the CZ-5000. Sharing these works with the world has allowed us to connect with many people and receive their responses.
What this instrument has brought to us is truly significant. We intend to keep creating sounds and music with it for years to come. Thank you for 40 years, CZ-5000. Here’s to many more!

"Get the Funk Out!" feat. Polybrute, miniKORG


video upload by Jeremy Parker

"So I had so much fun with my first Skweee track that I had to make another... or at least try to make something funky using only analog synths. Most of the sounds are from the Arturia Polybrute, with only the lead/solo voice from my miniKORG 700fs. Drum sounds are from Addictive Drums 2, everything done in Reaper. Enjoy!"
