POLY555 Synth #3DThursday #3DPrinting

oskitone shares:

The POLY555 is a polyphonic, analog, square wave synth based on the 555 timer chip.

Polyphonic:​ Multiple notes can be played simultaneously. This is opposed to “monophonic,” where only one note at a time can be played.
Analog:​ There are no computers, microcontrollers, sound samplers, or anything digital involved. The sound you hear is the sound of a speaker being abused by discrete electronic components like capacitors and resistors and logic chips.
Square-wave:​ When its output is viewed on an oscilloscope, its wave resembles a square. It’s a “hard” sounding wave type, commonly associated with chiptune music and old video games
These are the 3D models for the POLY555 Synth DIY Kit from Oskitone.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
