Channels like yours are one of the reasons I love Internet: source of high-quality inter-disciplinary open educational content with awesome end result. You rocks!
I started soldering at 9 years old. That was 62 years a go. Anyway, I built this project of yours and when I plugged in the power (Teensy only), the chip got so hot that I burnt my finger. emailed PRJC, and with (NO HASSLE) I have a replacement for free! So Kudo's to you and PRJC ! FYI- Nothing had been soldered to the board, just plugged in the power.
It's a shame project support for this and updates seem to have stopped and the site seems to have been abandoned by the creator. It's really a cool project with a lot of good lessons for beginners, and it's done in a professional, succinct, and clear way with the inclusion of the YT videos. Really, a bummer.
building my own synths is something I have dreamed of for years but never knew how to approach such a task. Thanks so much for explaining this topic in detail!!! I hope to have a go in 2019! :)
excelent tutorial! Thanks so much! It seems that 4 years later, thou, teensy developed new versions, currently 4.0. Will this tutorial work with this new version, I mean, especially for the code part... Also, do I need a better Audio board for teensy 4.0? I'm already looking for the parts to buy! Thanks again for this!! 🎹🔧
This code worked on my Teensy 4.0 with the Audio shield made SPECIFICALLY for the 4.0. The Pinouts are different between 3.x and 4.x, so going forward with knobs & buttons may need some "review" before wiring that stuff up.
Hi, Great video. In this synthesizer does the teensy actually playing sound faster to accomplish the pitch change effect, I mean the audio plays faster with higher pitch notes? If yes doesn't it actually affect the playing of keyboard? Also is this project compatible with teensy 4.0?
Hello, thanks for your awesome tutorials. It took hours before looking your tuto that the code from the teensy website is uncomplete, this is important for the newbies like me.
What an amazing bit of kit - seriously got to get an audio board now - I just got a teensy 4.0 to act as a usb controller but I feel like my eyes are open now ;)
I'm also currently building a Teensy synth, but I use another I2S board. One with an UDA1334 DAC, this looks like a better choice and you can get this as an Adafruit module for less money. :)
Dave, I would suggest you solder opposite corners first. Then reheat those pads. That way; it will sit flat! Doing all for corners WON'T give you a flat landing.
Itching to build some kind of noise making box but I currently have no midi hardware, If I build this as a stand alone unit, could I control it with a simple sequencer like the Arduino 8 step one from 'look mum no computer' ?
Just started with building small DIY synths with the AS3340 VCO, AS3320 VCF, V2164 VCA etc.. voltage controlled. But last week I found your channel and it's really great! I just ordered the components to build the Arduino based synth, and now I'm seeing the TEENSY video's. Pfff.... I have to order again. ;) Again, great video's, very clear explanation about all the details. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. One question, it seems that the TEENSY has a lot more capabilities for synthesis as an Arduino. Or is it just the libraries and the web interface for building blocks to generate the code what makes the difference?
Thanks Mark! I'm glad you're enjoying the channel. The Teensy is far more powerful than the Arduino Uno so it is capable of real DSP which is very cool.
ah man, i got my board, soldering it together and downloaded the teensy installer with no luck. I get to this step: 'From the File name, choose "Open HEX File" and open blink_fast.hex, which you downloaded using the link at the top of this page. You can also open the file using the toolbar button, or using drag-and-drop onto the upper portion of the window. When the file is opened, the filename and percentage usage of the Teensy's memory are shown. Select "Program" from the "Operations" menu, or click the Program button on the tool bar. The download should be very quick, perhaps too fast to see a tiny progress bar appear, but you should see the "Download Complete" message.' Sadly, none of this works. everything is greyed out and i can't select 'program' or 'operation'. I sure wish this installation would be an easier process. Can someone please help me?
Hey gurp. Do you have the Adruino software installed? Follow the steps here: www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_download.html Also, select "All" when it asks which libraries you want to install.
@@NotesAndVoltsThanks for the prompt response, Dave. Without hyperbole, this is the most exciting tutorial I have seen on the tube, man. I am trying again tonight. I am a total noob, and this might not be the best project to try right out of the gate, lol. I bet it is something as simple as not finding the Arduino directory or having a usb cable without the data wire. I'll update my progress after I exhaust my options. Thanks again for everything! Is video 10 coming soon?
HOLY SHIT I MADE A SNYTH!!!!! hahahahaha!!! i am so excited!! I just followed the instructions more clearly and violá! thank you so much, man. patreon funds comin your way, my dude!
I realized that the Teensyduino download versions haven't kept up with the Arduino download versions. Arduino is at 1.8.11 and the Teensyduino is only up to Arduino 1.8.10. Oh well. Glad I found it. Thx.
Dave, have a look at this site, (if you haven't all ready). What you do with the Teensy, you can do the same for the Arduino! here's the link: www.circuito.io/ The Raspberry Pi is on it's way!
hey dave im in huge fun thanks fo everting i want a favoite please check this webside and if you liked please make a tutorial fo us teensy board a bit expensive in mideleast area thanks

You're an excellent teacher - really inspiring. Thanks very much for making this series.
Great video! Watching it with subtitles is hilarious because the captions say something different every time he says Teensy.

That's awesome Steve! Good luck

Hi Cristobal. This will only work on the Teensy 3.2
@@NotesAndVolts thank You, sir!!!👍🏻

Thanks a lot for this serie Dave! I learned the basics for a teensy synth approach in a fun an practical way!
Thanks Koert! Great to hear
Thank You! I bought all the boards waiting to arrive soon.
Above and beyond. Thank you

Thanks - good intro to Teensy 3.2 audio synthesis. I'll try it out.

Thanks Tarvu!

I built this synth, it is awesome. :) Thanks again !!! :)
Thanks so much, Gr8 clarity in your tutoring for a newbie
You're very welcome!
It sounds like it has quite a bit of noise through the filter. Is there a way to get it to sound cleaner?
Can a Teensy 4.0 work as well?
Great work Dave, thanks for much for creating this series!
Thanks CIO!
Thanks Notes and Volts! I'll definitely keep up with this series 😀
This is a great series. Thanks for all your work and for sharing it. Much appreciated! First part working well!
You are my inspiration! Thanks for your videos and your talent!
Very interesting. Will follow this.
Is this synthesizer polyphonic?
Only Mono
Dave, I would suggest you solder opposite corners first. Then reheat those pads.
That way; it will sit flat! Doing all for corners WON'T give you a flat landing.
Is Teensy 2.0 good enough for this or it requires Teensy 3.2?
So I guess your aren't going to share your files for the PCB's and 3D prints? I looked through the entire series of videos and I don't see any links.
This is great. Thank you for doing this series. :)
What was i doing with my life before subbing to this channel.. You have got litearlly every project i wanted to do but didn't know how
Thanks Samuel! Glad you finally made it :)
Itching to build some kind of noise making box but I currently have no midi hardware, If I build this as a stand alone unit, could I control it with a simple sequencer like the Arduino 8 step one from 'look mum no computer' ?
Is this Max from Phoenix Nights?
So sick!
no audio from my headphone jack, I did all as you shown. can you help me please? teensy 4.0 here
solved! i fixed the connections! great tutorial !!
Super, waiting for the next Video!!

Where did you get the double-Decor headheers from; or did you make them up?
If you made them up, did one of them have a female end?
Hi Ted. You can buy them from the PJRC store: www.pjrc.com/store/header_14x1_d.html
They arrived today
This is great, thanks for the excellent channel, subscribed!
Thanks S B!
What interface are you using to connect audio to PC. Looks like a small USB sound card?
Cool!
