I know a few people were looking for the YM_MINI Synths I did, and I thought I ran out last year. Turns out I found seven kits in a badly marked box from when I moved!

There here: http://www.straytechnologies.com/produc … izer-kits/.

Here's the original demo vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbTZQ5kNF-c

You'll need an AY or YM chip. There's a bunch on eBay and Andy's Arcade has the AY's if you're in Europe:

I'll do another "give-back" discount for the Chipmusic.org members, since you always support my crazy projects and VJing:    $10 off for the full-built or $5 off on the kit, if you PM me or email me directly here.

Nice work!!

I don't disagree that everything should be kept simple, just for my own selfish needs as I don't run a laptop in my setup, but love the sound of this little thing mwah smile great job smile

Also; it's always handy to have power and data from the same connection smile

I can't do that all the time, it's just my way of offering-up for people who can't afford cool tools all the time... trust me, I know.

@liquidpinappleeatingtvdude & all: A lot of folks bitch about this whole "FTDI cable" thing I do in my designs: Why pay $20 extra for usb, when it could be built in for $16??  Your question is the answer...YES!
I plan on an external module that does direct 5 pin/ din midi and power that plugs into the 6-pin FTDI header. My other option was make it really expensive stand-alone and include everything, or do it one-at-a-time.
I currently expect that module just after the next synth I'm working on, as they'll share that design. Maybe August or September?

Still, it looks like a sweet ass piece of gear, I'd love to get me mits on one at some point

Will there be the option to buy the synth assembled once the initial run of ten has sold out? I attended electronics classes for three years but damaged my projects and equipment around me so badly I don't feel confident with a soldering iron. I'd buy one now but I've just bought a load of new gear, so am out of money, on top of which the volcanic ash issue has totally fucked postage which I wouldn't want to risk with an $85 item.
