[sdiy] Practical Elecronics "Minisonic2"

[Oren Leavitt]

Welcome to the list, Julian!

Thanks for documenting and sharing your Minisonic2 project.

There is a searchable SynthDIY archive here that you can peruse and get an idea of the various subjects that have come up on the list from the time it began in 1995 up until Feb. 2003.

Hi,

I have just joined this list, after coming across Rick's Formant web pages
by Google accident ...

I'm currently in the final stages of building an analogue sound synthesizer
from the 70's, called the Minisonic2. This has a pair of VCOs, a pair of
envelope shapers, a ring modulator, a VCF (based on a Moog-like ladder),
a noise generator, envelope inverter and features a switching system rather
than patch wiring.

I've been documenting my progress for a while at the following Web site:

I also have some images of the precursors to the Minisonic2 here:
