I love synths and so, I built this. There are three things that can catch my attention: Synthesizers, Amplifiers and free. The other day (Actually it was just Thursday) I was cruising around Make's website when I saw the Deal of the Day...

It runs on PICAXE 08m and is very cool. The original design is from Make: Magazine and is by Brian McNamara.

It is so easy in the real world. In the electronics world, well...it is really hard. Sure it is possible to create "pseudo-random" effects but not truly random. The only way to actually create randomness is to  ise programming. Even then, randomness will eventually repeat itself. Fading...

I may like it but, I try to keep it down to a 555 timer like in this ible. However, when it comes to synths, well, I just NEED programming. One day, while exploring Synthesizers, I came across something known as chiptunes. I decided to listen and found the music j...

Of more of the complex ones are ones like the Luna Mod or the Crazy Looper that Brian McNamara created. Some of the overly complex o...
