I'm sure Andre is a great guy, but Jeannie needs some new friends out here in California!

Hello rolf! How much $ and how long until a Jeannie is in my hands here in California? I don't see them on tubeohm yet. Also, the presets seem identical to my Tsynth...how did that happen? Are they a...

Hi! I am also making a headless tsynth...its great to see it is at least possible! I'm hoping to make about four of them in a rack space. I bought and built a proper tsynth and it sounds amazing, now...

How is it going so far?

Awesome, thanks!

For example, this would map what I want a potentiometer to do (and show me the table in the serial monitor so I could make sure):


void setup() {

float potmap[1023];

for(int...

Hi!

I'm making a synth and would like for a potentiometer to read analog values but I want behaviors that aren't linear.

I want the first half-turn of the pot (the values used, for example, to...

Thanks, I'll be stealing some of this pretty hard when I get the thing working and I'm ready to implement polyphony!

Thats what I ended up doing, and it worked! I felt like I had landed on the moon. Learning so much, the hours simply melt away haha

Well, I kinda figured it out and it's capped off a pretty long day with a sad sort of ending.
I have to put a delay in my button reads...and now there's a little crackle at the beginning of each...

So I started over and have some pretty good results.
But now there is a problem I can't even begin to understand!
So I have two voices working with two oscillators each, ADSR filter to smooth the...

Thanks! I have started over and did sorta wander towards what you are outlining...getting a few waves going vs. a playable instrument is quite the difference! Going to try to just get a single voice...

Also, this is much more apparent with the sine wave...it is masked pretty well with saws and square waves.

...so they have to go. I just need to minimize the collateral damage to desirable transients somehow.

For sure. These are clicks that are digital and bad, not attack sounds or cool instrument impacts. They sound like digital clipping or when you truncate a wave off of a zero crossing or the clicks...

So to start fresh, for my simple three oscillator synth, I am going to focus on oscillator 1, the one that the keyboard directly controls, and it is actually going to be two oscillators under the...

However, I am now going to start over and see if I can get what you just suggested to work. Thanks.

Yeah, good explanation! However, these are significant clicks. Something ain't right.

Yeah, I don't know. Now I get the click, and an initial transient, THEN you can hear the filter ramp up...
What I can't seem to do is get the MIDI.read() thing to happen but still be able to twist...

Definitely was not criticising the best and most fun design environment I've ever played with. I was just making sure that I wasn't doing something wrong because I'm very new to all of this. Thank you

Exactly the answer I was looking for and not necessarily dreading. Thank you

Right, you mean as a way to test my audio circuit? I have done that and it is clean. Notes held are also happy. Its just the note ons and note offs

As an experiment? Does that get me closer to a playable synth via midi that doesn't click when notes start and stop (when keys are pressed)? That is what I am hearing and unable so far to get rid of.

I think a little envelope will be the next step for sure. Was just wondering if the inability to launch and terminate a sine wave at phase zero was a known thing or i am screwing it up- and whether...

Hi!
Before I go nuts chasing it down...
If i make basically the world's simplest synth in the design tool...a sine wave triggered by midi, no filter, no nothing, mixer level even down to 0.3, chip...

Holy Toledo, that is NOT the Design Tool I've been using! That looks a lot more sophisticated and up to date. I'm switching.
...hey, wait. Where do I find that version besides your github? I want...

Can you provide any guidance about whether, in this exact design (three oscillators with three waveform types each) there are benefits to wavetables vs. using the modulation-ready oscillators in the...

Thanks! I did use the auto generate tool and did not alter what it created. And afaik the function with the delay in it is not called atm (it was part of an attempt to learn how multiple voices are...

Hello,
I have started putting a Teensy synth together. It has analog pots and switches, all working, connected to a teensy 3.5 with audio shield.

The overall design target is: 3 oscillators (Two...

Thanks so much. I will definitely have fun. Your inspiring trip through this same jungle has already been super helpful!

If you see this...am I correct in planning to use 4 pins in common to all 5 MUX, and one analog pin each, for a total of 9 pins used (5 analog and 4 digital)? Crazy how many pins I ended up using...

Awesome. My total needs are something like 15 analog knobs, 71 switches and 3 LEDs and I am not yet sure how that will all work.
I don't really know if there are any performance advantages to...

Thanks! So for 21 analog inputs (just beyond the 4.1 availability, esp with audio shield) you'd recommend one or two of those 74HC4067s as the easiest path forward. Thanks!
Can i maybe include your...

Hi! I'm designing a synth around the 3.5 and audio shield. After getting a 7-pot arduino noise maker to work with Mozzi, I decided I'm qualified to take on a fully realized synth. Oh, and I've never...

Just wanted to say I love you guys! Finally graduated to Teensy, thanks so much Paul! And my TSynth is in the mail, thanks so much UHF...I'm making my own synth after years of planning to, and it...
