At last: a modular synthesizer for everybody. Why is it for everybody you ask? Because it's only $160, that's why!The geniuses at KORG figured out that there was a market for this and it's being released in cooperation with littleBits, the company that puts out other cool modular electronics kits.
The synthesizer kit contain all the usual building blocks of subtractive synthesis: oscillators (two!), a filter, random voltage generator, envelope generator, even a keyboard and a sequencer. Just snap the blocks together (they stick together with embedded magnets) and you too are making obnoxious bleeps and buzzes!
Below is a video of the synth in action. I've already ordered mine.
This Kickstarter for Patchblocks looks interesting, too.
