Design view of the device

Pyratone III - Rack Synthesizer with Virtual Analog Sound Synthesis

Cinema 4D Design of the Version 3 of the Rack VA-Synthesizer.

The new version has more rotary encoders and has two units of height.

 

 

The FPGA Design is done with Quartus II.  The Signal Processing is fully digital. No analog outputs anymore.

The first approach to install the front. For some reason printing was wrong. The reason why this was, could never be found out. The design will be changed anyway:

The Front Design was done with Excel.
