Hello dear DIY friends…
I’m working on a new project called Degenerator 2. It’s a polyphonic sampler and synthesizer based on Teensy 4.1 with 16MB sample ram and touchscreen. In 2011 I started developing my first monophonic sampler/synthesizer. The project was later given the name “Degenerator”.
The degenerator was based on the most powerful 8-bit MCU from Atmel at the time, the ATXMEGA128A1 with a 32MHz clock speed. It is now the year 2024 and it is time for a comeback but with a bit more power. A polyphonic (8 voices) sampler/synthesizer is planned based on a Teensy 4.1 MCU with 600MHz and 16MegaByte sampler RAM. The “Degenerator II” project has already taken its first steps (see video). However, there will be more controls and a 3.2" touch display (as in the video).
