You've reached the Synthesizer DIY pages of René Schmitz!

The circuits that I provide here are mostly my own designs, and tested, unless otherwise stated. 

A word about analog music
If you are looking forward to build any of the stuff or if you have any questions regarding the material presented here, feel free to send me a mail (in English or German) I often have ideas for little additions or improvements, but I'm too lazy to present them here.

Note: As of 2013-Aug-28, this site has moved to its new home www.schmitzbits.de Although it can for now be accessed still via the old URL www.uni-bonn.de/~uzs159. This will stop some time in December 2013. Please take some time to update your bookmarks, your links on your own pages, blogs and forums and so on.
Thank you!
