Description[edit | edit source]
The synthesizer has the usual VCO-VCA-VCF voice, the book also includes an ADSR envelope generator, several simple sequencer circuits and a pseudo-stereo circuit using a simple phase-shift circuit.[1]
Modifications[edit | edit source]
- 1M for RV101 and RV102
- 2.2uF for C101
- 10k for the volume pot
- Op-amp buffer outputs
- Add a unity gain buffer to the AR
- Use star wiring for the power supply rails instead of daisy chained
