Introduction
With this synthesizer kit, you can build your own little
musical instrument. You can play notes over two octaves,
of course including halftones. Additionally, you can use the
customizable sound effects, tremolo and envelope modu-
lation, to give your compositions or interpretations a unique
and lively sound.
To play the desired note, you simply touch the desig-
nated key. Use push-buttons to select the octave and play
halftones. Two further push-buttons allow you to customize
sound effects according to your personal taste. LEDs visu-
alize the selected settings.
Only a few components have to be soldered to the
pre-assembled SMD circuit board. In producing the board,
the soldering pads were given special attention. They are
designed to allow successful soldering of all components
even with little experience.
