The Synth-a-Sette: A Versatile Analog Synth for Musicians and Students Alike
When designing this synth, the team at MicroKits realized they could connect the touchpads to various conductive objects, turning them into keyboard keys. Embracing this innovative feature, they included alligator clips with each synth, empowering users to invent their own unique keyboards.
Catering to both musicians and students, the Synth-a-Sette is an analog synth that anyone can enjoy. For musicians, it serves as a portable, convenient way to play melodies on the go or as an additional input in the studio. And for students, this mini synth provides an excellent introduction to analog sound synthesis, allowing them to transform everyday objects into keyboard keys.
Equipped with a 13-key monophonic touchpad and an "octave up" button, the Synth-a-Sette offers a wide pitch range, while the included vibrato switch and thumbwheels for pitch and volume adjustment further enhance the user's creative control. Weighing just the size of a cassette, this pocket-sized synth is incredibly portable, making it easy to play anywhere.
One of the key features of the Synth-a-Sette is its ability to enable STEM learning alongside musical exploration. By connecting conductive objects to the touchpads, users can test the conductivity of various materials and see which ones complete a circuit, turning this product into a comprehensive learning experience.
Unlike other expensive or complex synthesizers, the Synth-a-Sette is designed to be accessible and user-friendly. It can be powered by the included AAA batteries or a USB-C cable, and it features both a built-in speaker and a headphone jack, ensuring versatile audio options.
