Holy Spirit,
Hildegard of Bingen, The Enlightened Heart
Giving life to all life,
Moving all creatures,
Root of all things,
Washing them clean,
Wiping out their mistakes,
Healing their wounds,
You are our true life,
Luminous, wonderful,
Awakening the heart from its ancient sleep.

Peter Zimon
Peter Zimon is making some downright beautiful all in one analog syntheizers by combining basic designs from a number of sources. The level of polish on all his projects is astounding, the first version of his Shmoergh project lived in a Ikea flower pot and didn’t look any worse for it.

Speaker
Since I enjoy taking my synthesizer out of the house and outdoors, it would be nice to have a speaker module so I can listen to it without headphones.
Clacktronics has a straightforward and simple speaker module which I think I could build off of.

Remembrance Day in Bankhead
Today I took Dima to see Banff’s ghost town: Bankhead. Through some odd coincidence, we arrived just as a Remembrance Day ceremony was starting at a nearby monument to the residents of Bankhead who lost their lives in war.
It made for a surreal experience, walking through the foundations of old buildings, in the middle of the woods, with a bugle sounding through the trees.

Things Made Simple
Tyler Klein’s blog Things Made Simple documents Tyler’s work in creating a eurorack module based on Yahama’s YM3812 FM synthesis chip, which was a mainstay of computer soundcards in the 1990’s. Tyler also has a YouTube channel which follows his work.

Moritz Klein’s YouTube channel is a great source for explanations of how analog synthesizer circuits work, along with schematics and breadboard examples of the circuits in action.

Clock
Status: Built
A clock and clock divider, built around an Arduino Nano. The settings are controlled by a rotary encoder and are displayed on a three digit seven segment display, controlled by a MAX7219 display driver chip. The clock has inputs for an external clock and to reset the clock divider which are both buffered through a MCP6002 op amp chip.
