Found this today! Nicely done! Thanks! Up for converting the x0xb0x sequencer to SMD to complete the x0xheart? #1
Comments
Arghh.... I can't believe that it's already six years since I did the PlingPlong. Doing a plain pth->smd convert of the x0xb0x (and also possibly ditch all the sound-producing parts to get it to be just a sequencer) seems a bit boring. Shouldn't we up the ante a bit and make something new - more in line with what's expected of a sequencer 40 years after the 303? But maybe still have some retro-feeling of it. I like retro stuff. I'm currently designing and building a desktop calculator entirely out of FET transistors and resistors - but that is put a bit on the backburner. I'm also designing a transistor based (no ICs) sequencer/drum sound device that is just playing the Amen break - nothing else. It's definitely just a stupid gimmick, but why not. It's fun to do. So are you game? ...for the challenge of designing a new retro-inspired sequencer from scratch and make it your own? (The firmware could be written in C, Javascript, Python, Go, Rust or possibly something else depending on what microcontroller we're using) |
I mainly do product design and software engineering, much more than
electronics engineering. Love that jungle synth idea. Haha. That was
surprising. Have to use an mpc grid with quantizing though.
So, how about collaborating on a full product?
Basic idea is make a full SMD tb style synth with an onboard mxr d+ and a
sidechainable compressor and analog delay. (reverb is a bonus) INCLUDING an
808 bass drum, hats, and hand clap. (or a dr110 hand clap) Maaaaybe add a
snaredrum. (for rolls mainly)
Actually visiting shenzhen now (not chinese in any way). So could arrange
manufacturing and so on. I can do the product design and UX and casing and
so on.
Up for it? Thanks in advance!

Nicely done! Mainly do software engineering, although currently researching SMD synths and sequencers because I want to add an SMD sequencer to the x0xheart.
Up for doing that x0xb0x sequencer conversion or recommend a great SMD sequencer that is already open source?
Thanks in advance!
