New Erica Synths EDU DIY Sequencer
Erica Synths has introduced the EDU DIY Sequencer, a simple five-step sequencer for Eurorack modular systems that is available as a DIY project.
EDU DIY features include adjustable sequence length, per step gate status, and output range. It works both from an internal and external clock and has reset input for more complex sequences, if several sequencers are chained up. It works also as a waveshaper when clocked at the audio rate.
What they say about their DIY projects:
“Erica Synths and Moritz Klein – have developed series of educational DIY kits under the brand name mki x es. EDU with one specific goal in mind: to teach people with little-to-no prior experience how to design analog synthesizer circuits from scratch. What you’ll find in the box is not simply meant to be soldered together and then disappear in your rack. Instead, we want to take you through the circuit design process step by step, explaining every choice we’ve made and how it impacts the finished module.
In total, we have developed 9 kits to build a fully featured modular mono-synth: a sequencer, a VCO, a wavefolder, a noise/S&H module, a mixer, a VCF, an Envelope generator, a dual VCA and an output stereo mixer with a headphone amplifier. Additionally, an affordable eurorack case with a DIY PSU will also be available. While these kits are easy to build, we did not compromise on design and functionality. We will launch one kit every 4-6 weeks. Each kit comes with an extensive user manual (40+ pages) that will dive deep into not only the electronics behind each circuit, but also the fundamental principles of sound synthesis.
We hope that the mki x es. EDU project will inspire future engineers and will contribute to the ever-growing diversity of electronic music technology.”
