Re: [ElektorFormant] adding inputs/outputs to modules

2009-06-27 by Gerard Bik

My system has Formant modules and homemade stuff.
I put some inputs on the front, like the adsr-gate. Inserting a plug overrides the internal connection. This setup reduces the amount of connecting cables.

The big advantage of building your own synth is being able to tailor every single detail the way you like it.
