Build Your Own Analog Synthesizer
🎛️ Sunday, May 25 – 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM
📍 VA Studio – Şişli, IstanbulWe are hosting a special workshop for our new product, the VAEMI Atari Punk Console! In this workshop, participants will build their own analog synthesizer from scratch, while learning basic electronics and improving their soldering skills.
The Atari Punk Console is a dual-oscillator synth circuit based on the "Stepped Tone Generator" designed by Forrest M. Mims III in the early 1980s. Featuring light sensitivity and interactive physical controls, it’s a fun and educational device for creative sound manipulation.
All necessary electronic components, PCB, soldering tools, LDR sensors, batteries, and speakers will be provided in full. All you need to do is register — no need to bring anything else!
