Hi Teensyers,
I'm building a Teensy poly synth and would like to figure out how to build out my own DAC hardware. Here's a pic of the prototype board. Currently using the Audio Board, which honestly works great, but it takes up a lot of space and have more features than I need. Can anyone recommend a good external DAC for my purposes?
Here are more details:
Project: 8 voice polyphonic synthesizer with LFO, filter and amp envelopes
Hardware: Teensy 4.1
DAC/Audio Requirements:
-Stereo line level output
-Good sound quality (note: this doesn’t necessarily mean hi-fi or 24 bit, just nice sounding for an analog modeling synth)
-Ideally under $15
-Easy to hookup — ideally something that someone has already experimented with and documented for Teensy
I noticed that someone made a useful document here with compatible hardware, but I’m not sure which one to go for.
