Hallo friends..
The DIY project is now over. Jeannie can be bought at tubeohm.com.
Jeannie is an 8-voice polyphonic open source synthesizer kit with digital sound synthesis and digital filters based on a Teensy 4.1. For sound generation, the user has a variety of classic and band-limited waveforms at his disposal. A pool of 15 waveform banks with 63 different waveforms each offer plenty of space for sound experiments. A waveshaper with different characteristics provides for gentle to vicious sounding distortions.
To match the waveforms, there is a digital 12dB multimode filter with fade function from low-pass to high-pass and a band-pass function. A 24-bit DSP effect module with adjustable parameters rounds off the sound synthesis. An integrated polyphonic 16-step sequencer provides for the playfulness of the small synthesizer.
A total of 2048 sound patchesfrom 15 banks can be loaded and stored via an integrated SD card. A color 1.8 inch TFT display allows a clear menu structure and easy operation of the synthesizer. The parameters are entered via four rotary knobs below the display and an encoder for selecting the sound programmes and switching to the menu functions. In addition, there are six buttons for operating special synthesizer functions.

The kit
The kit consists of a total of four boards, the Teensy 4.1 board and the PCM5102A
Board can be delivered fully assembled and simply plugged into the existing contact strips
the back of the panel board.
From now on, various kits with different expansion levels will be offered on the tubeohm.com website (see link).
