DIY Projects

Audio

• Digital Pattern Generator Synapse A CMOS based pattern generator from a 1977 issue of Synapse.
• Electrophony SynapseSynapse project proposing the idea of Electrophony
• Ring Modulation Alternatives: IC-based ring modulator designs from Stephen Billow’s write-up.

Video

• Blinky Lights: A DIY audio Interactive Light Display (Polyphony): A deceptively simple way to make an A/V system on the cheap and easy
• Interactive A/V System (Synapse): A complex Audio and Video Synthesis System that works with both mediums simultaneously. The Block Diagrams provided show how the system's signal path worked and how the audio and video interacted. At the time, this kind of system was expensive and completely unobtainable for the likes of you and me, but now this could be patched up (or a hodge podge version of it) with what you have in your A/V studio. Give it a shot!
