This is a one-of-a-kind clone of the famous classic drum synthesizer Coron DS8, that I designed and built in 2014

It is compatible with Eurorack.

Demo:

It has the following controls:

  • "VCO" (main frequency)
  • Sweep
  • Decay (actually a Release setting)
  • Trig sensitivity
  • LFO (frequency)
  • LFO Mod (amplitude)
  • Ext level (built-in VCA for external source)
  • Noise (wet/dry white noise mix)
  • Impact tone
  • Impact volume
  • and Volume for the mix

It has 4x 3.5mm jack connectors:

  • Trig input
  • CV in (not 1V/Octave)
  • Ext in (external audio source)
  • Output

Two LEDs (one for LFO and one for envelope).

The 16HP front panel is made of 3mm-thick transparent dark grey plexiglas with laser etched markings.

Depth is 45mm.

The output might sound a bit weak, as on the original.

Power supply is done by 10-pin Eurorack connector. 20mA on +12V, around 5mA on -12V.

The circuit is a clone of the original model. Full circuit schematics and PCB drawings available on request.
