FAQ:

what is soundwidgets.com?
It's a blog where I post cool stuff I find on the web. I try to post projects which more or less relate to the above topics. Sometimes I just post random stuff. This also acts as an informal project blog for a music control device I'm designing and building called the Stribe. I also occasionally post clips and info relating to experimental electronic music I make under the name phineus.

do you sell stuff?
Actually, yes! You can support The Stribe Project by buying parts or donating through the new Stribe Project Forum.

what does "stribe" mean?
It means "stripe" or "striped cloth" in Danish.

Your First Synth

"Building a WSG [Weird Sound Generator], while fun, is not a deeply scientific or religious experience. The WSG does not look or work at all like a synthesizer used by anyone whose name rhymes with either Cakeman or Bemerson. The WSG does not have a keyboard, it has a few knobs and switches. Do not expect to use the WSG in concert. The WSG makes mildly entertaining, droning beeps and boops... This is not even a shadow of a real music synthesizer but merely a fun little noise maker. It is designed to be built on a solderless breadboard and experimented with or put on a proto-board or PCB and placed into an outlandish case for fun by electronics hobbyists." - musicfromouterspace.com
