This arrived in the mail today from Synthcube
It is the Music From Outer Space (MFOS) Sound Lab Mini Synth Mark II, an analog synth from the great late Ray Wilson. There is quite a lot of involved soldering – though I did do more soldering back in the days when I was constructing the Electronics Australia Playmaster series of pre-/subwoofer/stereo amps, but it actually looks like the wiring to all the pots/plugs may be the killer.
I decided to buy this after going down an analog synth hole in Youtube recently (spurred on by the excellent DIY synth videos by Moritz Klein). I can’t wait to get started, but will have to ease myself into it by building the power supply first. Eventually I’ll have to build a housing for it, and am on the fence between staining plywood or using walnut hobby board. A great project though for these socially isolated times!
