[sdiy] Cheap 3 Octave Keyboards (UK)

[Stein Seim]

Hi!

It's a Fatar 305A type keyboard, delivered with software for a micro.
What I have done so far is to drill two holes in every key and drawed the pcb for the resistorchain and bus bars.  Hopefully it will be finished during springtime.
The keyboard will be used for my Formant synth.
