Take your creations beyond the workshop and onto the stage with diy music instruments! Let us show you how these creations range from simple, basic setups that produce beautiful sounds to more complex projects that require a greater level of engineering knowledge. With these tutorials and examples, weโll guide you on this journey to make your own musical instrument for experimental, artistic or everyday use – so whether you’re starting out new or a seasoned sound creator, come explore the wonderful world of making your own music.
This app called “BeatMaker” for the iPhone is one of a huge list of cool new music creation applications that are out for the device. This one doubles as a portable music production center with a drum machine, sampler, and sequencer that usually only exists in desktop applications. Check out the link for the list […]

Emiliano shares the his experience building his own keyboard synthesizer, the “Lineal TML 01” – In 2000, I had many designs and circuits tested, so I desided to put them in a cabinet. I bough a not-working Casiotone in a music store and build a wood cabinet. I put everything inside and hardwired each PCB. […]
We covered the Komegatone synth-in-a-suitcase previously on MAKE, but there wasn’t too much information at the time. Recently, Craig sent us a link to a video and thought it was worth another post. Awesome Sound! [Thanks Craig] More about Komegatone synth-in-a-suitcase More: Komegatone synth-in-a-suitcase
Next Sunday, any Austin analog synthesizer addicts have an event they should check out: Looks like fun for the rest of us, too:)
