As the synth has a chip socket, you will be able to change the pitch range of the sound through different capacitors. Just change it on the fly, or keep it and build several of these synths. You can use sound effect software like http://rakarrack.sourceforge.net/. Check out the video! There will be build-up tutorials in the future.

Start with + and run through the different ways till you end back to - pole # The second image shows you the pins you are going to use # Go and mark all pins on your board # Take each basic component and put it onto the marked place (You might need to use some tape to hold the elements in place) # Check, if + of LED is on the shown side # Solder each part on the board...DO NOT CUT THE LEGS, WE NEED IT!!! # Bend the legs like it is shown in the second image <br/> # Cut the overlapping part of the leg shown in the picture # Bend the piece like an wide U, and put it into the place at the potentiomenter # Solder the U to bridge the channels * Solder the wire as shown * Using this prototype board, you will need to connect wires to the soldered elements directly * Compare the schematic with the photos to see which pins need to be connected * Be careful not to bridge other pins accidentally Here you need to take of a bigger piece of the wires isolation, so you can then use it to get to the jack sockets ground pin on the other side. Check the second image * Solder the wire as shown * Using this prototype board, you will need to connect wires to the soldered elements directly * Compare the schematic with the photos to see which pins need to be connected * Be careful not to bridge other pins accidentally Now use the legs of the basic soldered components, and connect it like shown in the image * Solder the wire as shown * Using this prototype board, you will need to connect wires to the soldered elements directly * Compare the schematic with the photos to see which pins need to be connected * Be careful not to bridge other pins accidentally <br/> # Cut off the middle leg of the Transistor SS9018HBU TO-92, and plug it into the socket left 1st and 3rd # Plug in the first capacitor into the socket right, with + in the 1st and - in the 4th # Plug in an audio cable to an amplified speaker, or laptop # Connect the battery FINISHED! OFF YOU GO, AND HAVE FUN WITH YOUR LITTLE SYNTH!!! Remember. If you change the capacitor size, you will have different pitch ranges. <br/> Mark Prototype Board Solder Basic Components To Board Bridge Potentiometer Channels Wire 1 Wire 2 Wire 3 Wire 4 Wire 5 Solder component legs Solder DC Connector Create Safety Strap Prepare moveable elements Open Tech Training Workshop ASKotec <br/> * Soldering iron * Soldering wire * Soldering grease * Marker * Sucker * Pliers Technique Youtube 2019-12-09T10:23:44Z 2458826.9331482 ASKotec Tutorials - DIY Simple analog synth 0 0 0
