What do you think?

i admire your work

Looks and sounds nice.

You should definitely do a thread about the Pixie when you get it, maybe some assembly photos as you build it. I've been curious about it, and some of the other Elby kits, for a while now, but I'm not sure my own DIY skills are up to that kind of task yet.

If I was you I would just jump right in. Maybe build something smaller and cheaper first like the WSG from Ray Wilson. Is not much as along the lines for a synth but its easy. I thing I like about a few of the Elby synths is that you can build them in sections, test that section to be sure it works and then move on.

I say go for it

Nice work on the Soundlab there. I'm building an ASM-2 at the moment (or rather, it's a long intermittent project in between everything else) - Elby are very thorough with their documentation, though that for the ASM took a fair bit of organising to make it practical for the build.

Wait till you start designing your own circuits. Then it gets fun...

Sweet synth!
Is that Pink Floyd?

I admire that. I've been looking at the Soundlab for awhile now and I unfortunately lack the inclination to actually get into what is such a huge project.

You're looks and sounds great!

Great Sound and looks! What are you using for a sequencer?

A Roland MV-8800 which I love!

Very nice! This reminds that I need to finish my Oakley TM3030 ASAP. Inspiring.

Sounds really nice when you play the two clips at the same time.

Wow! Nice job!

Did The Edge visit you in that second video?
