The Doodlestation Custom Synth @adafruit @johnedgarpark #adafruit
Love Hultén continues to blow me away with his gorgeous, custom instrument builds. The latest one, The Doodlestation, integrates three commercial instruments: Sequential OB-6 desktop synthesizer, Moog DFAM drum synth/sequencer, and Hologram Microcosm granular looper/effects pedal along with a Theremin, custom MIDI reactive visualizer, tape echo, and custom painted keybed.
The Doodlestation is integrated both internally and with many patch points available for creative exploration. It is built into a single, jaw-droppingly beautiful piece of furniture, complete with speakers, and a patch cable storage drawer.
As a point of reference, here’s what three of the synths look like on their own before getting the Love Hultén treatment:
Here’s where the OB-6 is integrated:
Not only were the knobs swapped out for custom built ones, and the buttons were painted to match the unified aesthetic, but there must have been extensive rewiring to bring all of the normally rear-facing IO into the body of the instrument. A inspiring design and an astonishingly well-executed work! I want one please.
