About this Event
In this workshop we will build a version of the Atari Punk Console synthesizer that fits in an Altiods tin. You'll get all of the necessary materials and detailed instructions. We'll have all the equipment: soldering iron, hand tools, and more. I'll bet that you have fun.
The synthesizer runs on a 9V battery and is made to plug in to a guitar amplifier via a quarter inch jack. There are two potentiometer controls – Pulse Width and Frequency, which contour the synthesizer's tone. Once your circuit it built and running, we will experiment with its sonic capabilities by using a guitar amplifier and effect pedals.
This is a low part count project - easy build for beginners! But if you need help with your circuit, your instructor has 20+ years’ experience building, designing, and troubleshooting analog and digital circuitry. So rest assured that we will get your synthesizer working and get you ready to explore the worlds of lo-fi synthesizers and electronics. Expect this workshop to last 2 – 3 hours. Limited to 6 adult participants.
