Community Reaction
A showcase video was made of the prototype and together with a description emailed to five members of the DIY Synthesizer Building Community. This were their responses:
- "The sound the prototype generates is very beautiful. The way it oscillates the wind recordings works like a charm. I especially like the fact that you were able to make this in one day and build it into a cardboard box (translated from Dutch)."
- "Even though the oscillators are programmed and not analogue they emulate the desired effect. It's nice that you build the synthesizer in a headphone box. Perhaps using cardboard as a case is something to look into?"
- "Great! This shows quite nicely what you're trying to achieve. The breadboard and cardboard aesthetic are pretty nice. I also like the sound you managed to program with the oscillators."
- "I really enjoy the sound even though I can hear the ultrasound sensor messing with the recording. It´s an interesting way of controlling a synthesizer. More and more people are searching for new ways to control the instruments. (translated from Dutch)"
