Synthesizer?

Can P1 do this?
I'm pretty sure P2 can. Just wondering...
I saw this ad for a very cool looking thing for $79.
No idea what it does, but for $79 looked like a great deal!

Sadly, this is just for the brackets that hold the three Moog things together.
Each Moog costs $599.

But I've seen a few P1 audio projects posted here. Can any of them do this kind of thing?
Or, do we need P2 to do this?

Complex mixing and synthesis, will need P2, and even there, may hit limits around memory access.
There looks to be many Pi-Hat audio boards out there, so it should be easy to connect i2s and start an Audio pathway.

Can't believe there's still a market for that hardware.

I have the Korg Collection so the only hardware I need is a MIDI controller.

Moog is still in demand. Have my eye on this one:

Nothin' like twistin' knobs and blinkin' lights.

The Moog is analog of course so you can't really duplicate it with either the P1 or the P2. You can probably create something that sounds pretty close though in the digital domain. I have a Moog Voyager that I haven't used in ages. I think I waited too long to sell it though since Moog has lots of new stuff that is probably better and also cheaper.

, can you believe it!
Problem is that I need to have two, for gigging... always have a backup... wonder what kind of a deal I'd get

Fridiculous!

Not that level of complexity/sophistication

, but whisk0r and atdiy (tymkrs) made a synth using a P1 several years back:

That makes at least 3 projects, so there should be a Propeller-Synths wiki page in the Propeller-Wiki. Who is competent enough on this topic to do this?
:-)

There is also retronitus-noise-from-the-past

Would https://hive-project.de/projekt-info/soundtracker count too?

Here is a demonstration of a synthesizer AntoineDoinel did way back in 2011 based on multiple SIDcog objects running at the same time... (I'm missing OBC :depressed: )

Then we have TinySynth, one oscillator, 44 assembly instructions and running at a sample rate of 500 kHz...
