Our Project: An Analog Synthesizer with a Digital Interface

Project Overview

The goal of this senior project was to take the best parts of both digital and analog synths and combine them into a working, scalable prototype for an analog synth with digital control. The core components of this project consist of a software application, synthesizer modules, and the software and hardware interfaces between them. On Demo Day we were able to show off the most important and core parts of our project.

Project Structure

• “app src” contains the source files for the supporting desktop app.
• “docs” contains our final report. Context for this project and all citations can be found within the final report.
• “embedded src” contains all embedded project files for our STM32F072 Discovery microcontroller.
• “schematics” contains the design files for our printed circuit board and acrylic panels, plus a supporting .als (Ableton Live Session) file for processing musical keyboard input into MIDI output.
