Punk Console Project
Note: This tutorial is for advanced users, complete the Hello World tutorial first!
For this tutorial, we are going to be building Voltera's version of an Atari Punk Console. It is a simple circuit that creates old school synth sounds using a piezo buzzer as a speaker. The circuit consists of a 556 IC (two 555 timers), an LED, a few capacitors, some resistors, two trimpots, and the piezo buzzer.
Adjusting the trimpots will change either the frequency or width of the electric pulses creating different sounds. Check out the end of this video to see it in action!
We have included all the materials and components you need to print the Punk Console. If you need another kit, you can grab one from our store.
