The first revision circuit board came back for the Pokey MIDI synth. It is up and running wonderfully. Audio examples are the same as in previous posts, and I’ll put more together as the MIDI engine expands. This was all on a series of breadboards before, so it is nice to have it condensed down to a single printed circuit board. It is 4? by 3?, with MIDI in, power in, and a 1/4? line out.

What is it? Verbiesen explains:
ComputerMusic4Kidz is an interactive electronic music installation for kids, inviting them to explore the history and sound of classic gaming consoles…
The installation mainly focuses on the sounds that can be produced with classic gameconsoles and enables children to create music using classic gameconsole soundsamples. By using an intuitive interface children can navigate through a visual library that contains a selection of gameconsoles produced between 1972 and 1990. By selecting a gameconsole they can produce music with samples that originate from the chosen gameconsole.
I guess Tim and Eric got inspiration on this to do the Minivan video…
