The Penfold synthesiser is a basic synthesizer based on the circuits described in the Babani book Electronic Synthesiser Construction by R. A. Penfold, published in 1986.
Description
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
- 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
