DIY Minimoog Inspired Synth | A Teensy Powered Tribute

In this video, we’re building a Teensy-powered synth inspired by the iconic Minimoog Model D, and exploring what made the original design so legendary. We’ll walk through all-the-things: oscillators, mixer, filter, envelopes, hidden features, presets, the Teensy’s USB audio setup, and how Bob Moog’s Minimoog helped shape modern subtractive synthesis. This is my biggest project to date, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! The Teensy 4.1’s built-in USB audio is sending power, MIDI, and audio over a single cable. What a time to be alive, haha! All code and build files are available on GitHub if you want to make your own. Cheers! GitHub: https://github.com/NickCulbertson/Min...
