Metal Synth - Build/Solder your own Metal Percussion Synthesizer
Electromagnetic Field 2022

Participants can build a Metal Synth Kit, learn to solder and become familiar with circuit boards and components along the way. The Rakit Metal Synth has a Polivok’s inspired filter at its core. It uses this, along with a punchy AD envelope to produce a variety of percussive sounds from shaped noise. The filter is switchable between band pass and low pass modes and a resonance control featuring self oscillation at high resonance settings. Please bring a smartphone to browse the instructions or any of your own equipment. Two experienced engineers will be on hand to steer people in the right direction and offer a helping hand. Please, ask us questions!
