What is it?

Genesynth is a music synthesizer module based around the Yamaha YM2612 FM Synthesis Chip, the same chip used in the Sega Genesis / Mega Driv

Why did you make it?

This project is designed to use the Teensy 3.5 to control the YM2612 via USB MIDI.

More details for the hardware is available under the hardware folder, and more details on the firmware is under the firmware folder.

What makes it special?

You'll need to order all of the components in the three separate hardware modules under the hardware directory. You can use KiCAD to generate a BOM. These parts are readily available from Mouser and other distributors with the exception of the YM2612 chip - but this is easily obtainable on ebay.

Also note that you must use a Teensy 3.5. The Teensy 3.6 will not work as it's 3.3v logic and this design uses 5v logic.

You'll also need a 9v center-positive power supply.

Comes with an acrylic shell
