Electronics Creations
Ever since my pre-teens I’ve been interested in electricity and electronics. In my adult years I’ve mainly focused this interest on synthesisers, a theme reflected in most of the projects shown here.
Dance Platform Firmware
The RE:Flex dance platform is a modern take on the concept with precise sensors and 84 RGB LEDs per panel.
MIDI Thru box
1-to-8 (or more) output MIDI Thru utility box, which lets you connect multiple instruments to one MIDI source in a star configuration.
WIP: BWEEOO Eurorack filter
Under my fiancee’s and my brand RE:Flex Sound, I’m working on a versatile Eurorack format filter, with intent to bring it to market.
Table Tennis Scoreboard
Simple table tennis scoreboard operated with buttons mounted under the table. Indicates whose serve it is, plays a jingle when the game is over.
WIP: Polyphonic Synthesiser
I’ve been working on a standalone polyphonic synthesiser, though it is far from finished.
Sequencer
8-step control voltage sequencer for my DIY modular synthesiser. Features quantizing, slide steps, various playback modes.
Clock Generator
A clock pulse generator with divided outputs, used to drive sequencers and other triggerable modules.
Michstortion
A versatile foldback distortion module for my DIY modular synthesiser.
ADSR Envelope Generator
Attack-Decay-Sustain-Release envelope generator, an expansion on Ray Wilson’s Music From Outer Space design.
Inverters Module
A utility module for my DIY Modular synthesiser, providing 4 analogue inverters and 2 logic inverters.
Spring Reverb
Spring Reverb module for my DIY Modular Synthesiser, after Ray Wilson of Music From Outer Space’s design. Uses a salvaged spring tank.
Noise Generator
White and pink noise generator for my DIY Modular synth, from Music From Outer Space circuit design.
Mixer Module
4-input mixer module for my DIY Modular synthesiser. Allows setting volume of each channel as well as the overall volume of the mix output.
Voltage-controlled Amplifier
Used for contouring sounds, and various modulation depth control in my DIY modular synthesiser.
Voltage-controlled Filter
Used for cutting and accentuating harmonics in my DIY Modular Synthesiser; adapted from Thomas Henry’s VCF-1 design.
Voltage-controlled Oscillator
Audio or modulation signal source for my DIY synthesiser, derived from Ray Wilson’s Music From Outer Space’s (MFOS) VCO and Thomas Henry’s VCO-1.
MIDI Input module
MIDI to control voltage (CV) module for my DIY synthesiser.
Very old: FPGA MIDI Synth
For our final project in our EE course, my classmate and I built a simple digital synthesiser around an FPGA development board.
