Def worth checking out 'moritz klein' on TH-cam for this. Great synth diy channel where he explains the electronics and then does step by step breadboard builds.
@@sine0 Shouldn't have, although he may have, unsure. The ones I'm most cordial to are his DIY series where he roughly covers each section of a synth; they're the only breadboarding videos of his I've seen.
This looks and sounds amazing. For the people asking for schematics, he's linked his blog in the About page of his channel. He goes over each of the sections in detail there. I'd post a link directly, but I forgot that TH-cam will auto hide comments with URLs in them and so my previous comments got removed or hidden or something. Anyway at the end of his blog post you can get the link to his bandcamp where you can listen to the song he teased at the end of this video.
Brings modular synth to a whole new level! This is actually super cool, and if you're familiar with the components and could mix and match stuff it could be loads of fun to play with
@@tristen_grantbecause he is combining different elements from different synths, VCO, Filter, ADSR, etc. that’s what you do with modular, just instead of a euro rack it’s all mashed together on a breadboard.
Very inspiring! I love breadboard builds, i find them more relaxing than pcb design/layout. Feels a bit like puzzling to make it all neat and tidy. I did build a Thomas Henry 555VCO on breadboard at some point. It's a bit larger than René's VCO, but def worth it: you get extra Sine and Triangle Waves, and a super cool 'hard sync' input. All standard Parts too! (Based on 555 and LM13700)
Great work . Its great to see these beeadboard projects thats how I started. I'm very interested in setting in the midi to cv part. I will look it up. In the meantime continue the great work.
DUDE!! THAT build seems to be really holding up to your playing and wear, since my breadboards usually would produce some undesirable static from general wear or short-outs in the wiring. And your wiring btw is really nice and pretty, no bare copper and no huge lengths of slack. Your own diy monosynth - just with the modules that you’ve decided upon - that gives the synth an overall sound that’s all to itself. Very lovely with that Polivokc filter. The whole thing just really is your own unique innovation! Really inspiring work that you’ve done!! I’d love to read the code for the MIDI module! So cool!! Edit I’ve found Rene Schmitz’s Midi/CV!!
Cool design and awesome effort!! I've been building synths since the 80's starting with ElectroNotes publications from Ithaca, NY. I'd given up on breadboarding on more than one occasion. Invariably after moderate use, my connections would get funky and tracking down issues seemed to take over all my time. These days I use PCBs with soldered thin copper w/ nylon sleeving for workups and once I have something viable, I create a circuit board and send the gerber files off to Asia where they give you 5 PCB's for ~ 30$.
This is insane. I built the Ben eater computer last year. Might have to start working on something like this soon. I’ll echo the call for a tutorial series. Even just a few videos on how to make the lfo, psu, mixer, etc. I’d watch the heck out of that. Great work
whoa, I'm a huge beginner but I really really would like to know the schematic section just for converting the midi protocol into the CV required to control the oscillators. It looks so simple on the board but I don't even know where to begin.
This is great! I was wondering is there a "good" quality breadboard for doing stuff like this? I have a few cheapo breadboards that look like this, but after i've prototyped a few things i notice the wires don't make a good connection on some spots after they've been punched in a few times.
Good evening, this basic synth sounds amazing! I can buy an analog synth but I don't want to, I can't play music but I don't want to... Just want to build things like this, learn how they work or sound... so can you PLEASE give me some information or schematics to build this one, it is a starting point to me and very important! Anyway you did a great job with this one!! PLZ give more info, THANK YOU!! Best regards, Roman Kurt
Although this synth sounds cool, it would be an awful point to start as a learning, imo. There are thousands of videos by experts online- see Moritz Klein's DIY synth series, for example.
They are "relaxation oscillators" which just use one opamp as an inverter with hysteresis. (Much like the hex Schmitt trigger oscs.) They give a square wave output, but a 2 opamp 8 pin chip could use the 2nd opamp to buffer the voltage on the oscillator's capacitor to give a sharktooth wave output.
That sounds so good -- it's got that early Moog/Land of the Lost vibe. You make me want to learn electronics.
Amazing! Would love to see a tutorial series

@@KeurslagerKurt Not so much any more, since he partnered with a manufacturer. Such is the lifecycle of community launching pads.
At a glance I thought it was Rob Scallon XD
@@buckstarchaser2376 did he delete any of his earlier videos? I went to his channel and there wasnt much there in the way of breadboarding

Wow! What a very nice synthesizer. Almost skipped this video expecting to hear some simple 555 beeps. Subscribed.
This new YT layout is a pile of shit. I cannot subscribe until I exit out of the video……? Where is the subscribe button today?
AMAZING! you should do a tutorial series!
Do a build along!

How is this at all similar to a modular synth?

woww!! where is the schematic!! ?? :D
Schmitz bits
@@bisnetodeportugues 😉👍
sounds amazing, great project
Very, Very bad ass brother!!! I’m building one!!!!
send schem
Very nice. Now use digital pots in place of the analog ones and strap that baby to Ben's computer.
Sounds awesome.
That sounds amazing! Please, please, pleeeeeeease share a schematic!
its all stuff off the net
I knew someone would say this 😂 Its all schems easily found online.
@@z_h_f he mentions what each section is based on in the video.
Do you mind sharing the schematic of this beautiful beast? Nice build & video!
this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life, I'm inspired

love this project, it sounds very nice and the bonus is that it does not use a development board as its heart.

@MoritzKlein0 shows how to build some of these
have seen Adamski A. monster breadboard Synthesizer?
i wonder why he didn't get an approached by the World guines books of Records.
Incredible.
Class. This is inspiring stuff.
I want to build one but understand it.
Well done.
this is a great build, you got some really cool sounds from this project! thanks for sharing, i really wanna build something similar too
great great ! amazing sounds ...schematiiiiiiics pleeeease
you're a true gem in the content creation community!
This is so COOL
What an excellent excellent thing. Sounds great👍
That’s fucking awesome
4:19 Boards of Canada - roygbiv, please share schematic
Need to build this!
Superb!
STYLE POINTS.
Wow this sounds incredible holy shit.
this is most impressive breadboarding ive ever seen in my life. end of story.
wow, didn't expect such sound!
More of this please 👍
A good collection of modules producing a wide range of sounds. Good work!
Sounds great!
Inspiring
Great work and great sound! Thank you for sharing. Even just the riffs you play here are fun sounding starts to some groovy club banger.
Yeah I want to build this like tonight, add that 32 step sequencer ohh baby
That's awesome dude!
Wonderful!
Fabulous work. Sounds great!
Sounds really good.
Just Brilliant
Awesome!!
Super cool!
Wow gorgeous!
sounds insane for such a small thing
Hey! This is so cool. Make a tutorial video!!!!
Bro this is beautiful, im new in electronic world, definetly i will try to build some like that
OMFG this is so sick!
Turned out great! 👍
good sounds mate! awosome project!
Sounds fantastic and now just transforming into a pcb version with case and knobs would be great .
really sick stuff
I only can say : chapeau Sir great project !
the sound is amazing ... like whaaaat ? :D
Would you mind sharing the diagram please?
The diagram is on a page called Rene Schmitz.

Bro build a moog on a breadboard. This sounds PHAT
WOW!
If you still have this, would love to hear jams
Cool! :) Could I have a schematic please?
Awesome project!
Stop convincing me to make a polivoks filter! The sound, it's too funky!
This is great! I was wondering is there a "good" quality breadboard for doing stuff like this? I have a few cheapo breadboards that look like this, but after i've prototyped a few things i notice the wires don't make a good connection on some spots after they've been punched in a few times.
Damn! This synth sounds really great!!!! Well done
Looks and sounds awesome!
Will you do a video building it?
Can you please share the schematic🙏🙏
Damn right.
Amazing! How can I buil it?
very cool!
Fucking awesome!
Great. Amazing.
dope
Rad stuff man
Like this a lot.
Dope af!
Love this! What’s a rough price for the parts?
so cool! ive been wanting to make something very similar to this for a while now, this might be the push to start working on smth 😅
Sounds amazing!.....schematics 👉👈
BRAVO!
Sounds amazing! : ) Can you share the schematics?
P.s. sounds amazing
Schematic pls ❤
Good job, do you have a link for the polyvoks filter operating under 12V? the one I found is only for 15V , thanks !!!

hey do you have an tutorial how i can built it ? ist sounds pretty nice

Exceptional fat analogue!
do those lfos only use one op amp each? sounds perfect! could i see a schematic please
They are "relaxation oscillators" which just use one opamp as an inverter with hysteresis.
(Much like the hex Schmitt trigger oscs.)
They give a square wave output, but a 2 opamp 8 pin chip could use the 2nd opamp to buffer the voltage on the oscillator's capacitor to give a sharktooth wave output.
Maybe my hearing is not that good ... but I can not tell the difference from a commercial analogue ... (using good headphones)
yes
This was brilliantly mad! How much did all components used cost in total? Thanks!
