What
The idea is to make a eurorack module out of the Korg Monotron synthesizer. The Monotron synths are extremely hackable, Korg released the schematics and a lot of people have published mods. I have the original Monotron.
Todo
- Remove battery terminals from PCB
- Design and build a board with the desired in- and outputs, probably on protoboard (called I/O board from this point on)
- Build a simple board for powering the module (called power board from this point on)
- Design and build a faceplate
- Assemble everything together and put it in a eurorack case
