Station X and Station Y both look interesting to me.  Station X in particular, with the MIDI/CV converter built in.

I'm hoping Analogue Haven gets them in.

The Nord i was hunting was snatched out from underneath me in the last second.

rediscovering my Nord Modular G1 after stepping away for a bit.  so much fun.

so deep so cool so red

I am really looking forward to the new Shruthi1 from Mutable Instruments. Its a revision of the Shruthi1 (note subtle spelling variation) with a few kinks ironed out and a slightly more complete kit, various filter boards and looks generally bad ass.

Lots of lovely sound samples on Soundcloud

I also build a sammich SID which I still need to devote time to learning how to use but building it was one of the most rewatding things I have done.

And when you get the swing of things you can start expanding and buy my modules that will hopefully be out this year.

i heart DIY synths soo hard. i have been making plans for one for a while now.

That's two VCOs, two filters and something like a delay module.
To be honest I think you're better off with one of Doepfer's premade combos, like the Mini-system:

http://www.doepfer.de/a100s_e.htm

The reason why is that you'll get the basic utility modules that would make up a complete voice with a rack and power supply included.  And it's MIDI compatible.

This is up on vintage synth explorers classifieds:

* a-122 vcf3 $80 shipped
* doepfer a-121 vcf2 $130 shipped
* 2x Doepfer A-110 $115 a piece shipped
* Doepfer a-188-1 BBD (4096 stages) $175 shipped

would it make a good start to a modular? I know I'd still need a rack and power supply, but what else?

does anyone know a good source of CV keyboards? i know theres the dotcom one and also the doepfer, but a cheaper option would be nice.

Very cool!

I've been distracted from the sequencer a big learning about analog drum circuits.
I'm currently building 2 ds8's, a synare4, trying to clone a synare3, and also modding 3 of my Dr-110's. And designing a DR-55 clone.
Oh, and i'm also making TR-808 voice modules for my modular.

way too many things distracting me from what i need to be doing. lol

Here's some new stuff:

Newly completed SN-Voice VCO and 3 Coron DS* drum synth clones

I've also completely rebuilt the Lunetta, with lots of modules and more to come:

Fun stuff !

i consider it a small rodent at the moment.
nothing is really up and running.. but lots of modules in the works. :-D
i'll need another cabinet soon.

SOOON!!! it shall be a BEAST!!!

Rockin! Your modular synth is indeed a beast.

mmmm progress. :-D

MFOS 16 Step Sequencer Prototype underway!
I needed to build up an MFOS 16 step CV Sequencer to work on my Gate/Trigger Expander board for it...
I've been waiting for Bridechamber.com to carry Thomas White's panel design for the sequencer but i need to build this one quick.
So i got some Black Acrylic and started knocking out the panel wiring. I will have a wooden enclosure build so that it will eventually look like this:

1-8 Step panel
Black Acrylic cut to size
Holes machined into panel
Parts mounted to check spacing
LED's are slightly off center.. meh. oh well. thats what i get for only taking an hour to center punch the holes and drill them out w/ a stepper bit. :-D

labels applied, and i've begun mounting parts

Are those Klee sequencer Panels?  I have the full parts kit for one and just need to get my panel components together.

The paia module was super simple.. only took me about 2hours to populate the pcb. i'm currently trying to figure out an enclosure for it
as it's not going to live in the modular . needs to be portable.
