PART II: "TRANSCONTINENTAL SYNTH BUILD OFF"

OHHHH Jesus! This has been crazy so far. So I just finished up drawing up the circuit board layout (which is shown in the photograph above). My next steps will be getting the good ol soldering iron out, some wire clippers, and some other crazy stuff... and start assembling.

It is a circus.

PART I: "TRANSCONTINENTAL SYNTH BUILD OFF"

My friend Andy rekindled some old thoughts of creating a sound machine / synth. Andy sent me over to some great websites for reference. So Andy and I are going to build our own synths from scratch... a "Transcontinental Synth Build Off" if you will.

So... to start off this insane journey, I picked up a dummies book, a grip of components (including a circuit board, resisters, capacitors, potentiometers, diodes, switches, and other shit), and now I'm drawing up my circuit board layout on a graph that I created to simulate the circuit board. This drawn up lay-out will help me figure out the best placement for all the components.

This is ONLY Part I hahaha!! This is going to own!
