I just spent about a week building the 9700s modular synth. It took a bit longer than anticipated – but these things really can’t be rushed.
I now know why analog synth gear costs so much – it takes forever to assemble!
I hooked up the Theremax theremin to the CV of the VCO just to see what would happen.
(The oscilloscope is a general USB module from Measurement Computing.)
The range is a bit shallow – maybe there’s something I can do about that with an op-amp or two…
That’s got the 9700 completed, next on the list is the vocoder…
