Aussie DIY Synth Designer Launches Kickstarter for Passive Modular Synth Tool Set

Robert Jordan, aka Cat Full Of Ghosts, has launched a Kickstarter campaign for a set of DIY gadgets aimed at the modular synth community called Synth.BT. Jordan believes that utility modules such as Mults and Attenuators that don’t require power are a waste of space in your modular synth case, so has designed a tool set consisting of 5 small but handy gadgets to sit between patch cable connections.

Synth BT consists of

  • 2 X 4 way multiples
  • 2 X touch pads
  • 1 X 3.5mm to ¼’ adapter
  • 1 X 3-in-1 out gate combiner
  • 2 X attenuators with mute and stutter

For those just starting out, or those committed to keeping their case small and compact, this looks really good! Jordan has a history of getting things funded and built via Kickstarter so we expect this will be available in the coming months.
