Clean is overrated. If you’re ready for a little digital dirt in your synth life, powered by the open-source Arduino hardware, Marc Nostromo’s Squealer is for you. Built atop the wonderful, Arduino-based Pocket Piano kit by Critter and Guitari, it’s a full-blown, simple, digitally-gritty synthesis engine.
You get a monosynth, some fixed waveforms, a resonant filter, decay, and some aliasing tricks for extra grit. The big news: the Arduino Piano Squealer is now under a GPL license.

its too small yet it’s a full-blown, simple, digitally-gritty synthesis engine.that device has many advantages,it has fixed waveforms, a resonant filter, decay, and some aliasing tricks.
man, this is insane! would have never thought that this works!
Regularly I do not make comments on blogs, but I have to mention that this post really forced me to do so. Really nice post.. I'm currently working on Fishbone Diagram project.
