Housing

At the end of April, we realized that the 110 year old cast iron sewer line beneath our house had collapsed, so May’s project around the house will be cutting through the basement slab and trenching in a new sewer line from the front to the back of the house.

Synth Building

In April I got the circuit board for the Melodic Orchestration module I designed and assembled them. So far it seems to be working fairly well, with a couple of minor flaws that I can probably kludge on to the circuit board to get it working as intended. My first program that I want to code is a Roland J-6 emulator, which plays arpeggios and chords.

I also want to get the circuit board design underway for my YM3812 synthesizer, which I’ll base off of Tyler Klein’s design, and will leverage some of the same circuit design as the Melodic Orchestration for the display and control interfaces.
